THIS MEME IS STRESSING ME OUT.
Day 06 - Favorite episode of your favorite t.v show:
This was a toughie - it was between a bunch of different episodes I thoroughly enjoy. Each were great and could easily have taken this title, so it really came down to the combination of a bunch of different elements that I think make for a great episode: the "case of the week", if Veronica was with her dad and/or Wallace at all, the supporting cast, the flow between the stories (CotW and secondary plot) and of the overall episode - and just basically which left me feeling the most satisfied at the end of the episode.
Honorary mentions: 1x4 - The Wrath of Con, 1x15 - Ruskie Business and 1x18 - Weapons of Class Destruction - each are fantastic and are right up there in terms of my favorite episodes for this series, so I figured they earned a mention.
The Runner-up: 1x12 - Clash of the Tritans
This was pretty close to taking top honors, but points had to be deducted for the karaoke bit (although the guy in the stall did make up for it a little), and it lost some more for Rick’s whole sob story at the end. But still, my second favorite episode of veronica mars EVER! That's nothing to sniff at!
"The ink is bleeding at the esdges, the hologram is missing, and the photo… is that your yearbook picture Wallace?"
"Yeah, so what?"
“So this is a $250 piece of crap. Now I’m not just falsely accused, I’m genuinely offended."
"Read what’s written over Grant’s head."
"‘Veronica mars is... smarter than me.’"
"Oh you stop it!"
"You know Veronica was my friend too. And if she hadn’t ratted me out, then Lilly and I would have stayed together. And Lilly wouldn’t have been alone that day - I would have been there. So yeah, I blame Veronica - and I blame myself for being stupid and I blame Lilly for being a bitch that week."
"You know there is another way of looking at this Logan. If you’d still been together, you might be dead, too."
"And what is so great about living?"
And now I KNOW you are all on pins and needles, waiting to find out who took first prize (if you hadn't already figured it out from my subject head) - SO! without further ado, I give you THE WINNER of "My Favorite Episode of Veronica Mars EVER":
1x10: An Echolls Family Christmas
"I can’t believe he beat you with a pair of twos!"
"There you go again with that head tilt thing. You think you’re all badass, but whenever you need something, it’s all ’Hey’."
"Hello... you’re not Chester."
"What, are we breaking up now? Do you want your best friend charm back?"
"Carlita, bald patch."
"Look at you, all helpful."
"Hey, your peskiness being unleashed on Connor brings me joy. Annoy, tiny blond one - annoy like the wind!"
"It’s a kinder, gentler Weevil."
"It’s Christmas, even for delivery guys."
"Par rum pum pum."
"mmm, iced tea? How very musical theater of you. Duncan can’t remember the alphabet when he drinks, let alone 15% of the pizza bill. No, he didn’t play drunk to steal your money, he played drunk to win your money - to no avail it seems. Oh, and Connor isn’t a drug addict. I know, the constant bathroom visits? He wasn’t going for a fix - he was going because of the sun tea. It’s that diaretic that wrestlers down when they need to make weight - or that actors use when they’re about to be half naked on the cover of Vanity Fair.
And then there’s Bachelor Number 3. He’s got it all- motive, access… Looks like an evil doer, smells like an evil doer, but surprisingly, not so much - Weevil cleared him. He told me he searched the room but didn’t go through it as much as he wanted. When I saw it it looked like it had been raided by the FBI. If Logan took the money and hid it, he wouldn’t have to tear the room apart looking for it.
So, two left. The boy from the wrong side of the tracks, and the boy who lives in the most expensive house in the 09-er zip. So, do you want to hear how Sean did it? Oh he’s a crafty little bugger. Sean didn’t bring the big mouth joes because he’s cheap - he knew he couldn’t leave with the money, so he didn’t. What happens to garbage in the on-niner zip? He just waited for the recycling to go out the next day and did a little garbage picking."
"Sean? The guy has a chauffer drive him to school everyday. Why would he need to steal?
"Funny story. When I went to Sean’s. I couldn’t help but wonder what was his dad doing at home, 3 in the afternoon, dressed in a suit in stead of being at work? Unless he was at work… I have to say, I was a bit miffed. I was this close to being able to say ‘the butler did it!’ But no, it was the butler’s son."
So, SO awesome. I could watch this episode over and over and over and over and over and never get tired of it.
