Where is this season of VMars going? I mean, Season 1 was all, "Who killed Lilly Kane?" And then Season 2 was all, "Who blew up the bus?" But this season is like, "Who -- oh wait never mind it was this guy. But what about -- wait no, that was this other guy." If there's one overarching thread, it hasn't really presented itself yet. I'm ( Read more... )

I've enjoyed this season so far, but I mean now that they're dropping the on-going storylines, it's basically losing all appeal. Also, even though I've enjoyed this season, I do think it's been noticeably worse than the first two seasons. The writing just isn't as tight anymore; it relies way too much on pop culture references, but the rest of the dialogue is kind of flat. You can even notice a difference between the early season 3 episodes and the more recent ones in this regard. Plus, way too much Logan and Veronica drama. In previous seasons, their relationship (or lack thereof, as the case may be) was always a running story, but it wasn't the story. Now other characters just come and go. Mac joined the regular cast, and Parker and Piz are both regular cast members too, but they all just disappear for a while and we never hear anything about them. Wallace has barely been on the show; Dick has gotten a ton more screen time than Wallace. The show has become way too fixated on Logan and Veronica, at the expense of everything else. The last couple episodes seem like they're getting away from this now, with the breakup maybe finally solidifying, but that kind of sucks in its own way too. Logan has probably become my favorite character on the show at this point, and Veronica's totally treated him like shit this season, so the way she totally screwed him here is kind of frustrating. I mean yeah, he slept with Madison, but they were broken up at the time because she keeps dumping him because she's fucking crazy.

Meh, I'm just rambling now.

See, Logan was my favorite character throughout the first two seasons, and now they've just turned him into this whiny mope. He's only interesting when he's volatile.

I agree they need to make better use of their cast, although Piz and Wallace are playing pretty much the same role right now. They need to change it up a bit. I say go with one of two angles...either Piz and Veronica start going out already, or else Piz turns out to be a crazy serial killer. Either way works for me.

Also, Dick needs his own show. I'm serious. Dude's a genius.

I like the Piz as a crazy serial killer angle. I don't really like Piz that much and I don't feel that he deserves the hotness that is Veronica.

Piz reminds me of myself. I really want him to end up with Veronica because it gives me hope. =/
