Dear VM, don't grow up to be Will & Grace...
... And that is me expressing my concern about all the "gimmicky"-ness surrounding this season of VM. Don't get me wrong, I'm THRILLED that there's so much good buzz from last season that this season it became the Cool New Show. But it's like almost every week there's some new thing. I just don't want it to become all about the jazz and whatnot.
That being said...
I totally called it! Last week, to my sister about Wallace. :D Very, very interesting plot twist. I'm very interested to see how this all plays out.
And anything I say about what I think might be going on is purely speculation!
Ok, I'm gonna steal the bullet point format from the awesome jascott:
- Wallace was awesome this episode!
- Ohhh, I totally smell a cat fight brewing between V and Jackie. The shit is gonna hit the fan folks! Anyone taking bets on who's gonna end up Alpha dog?
- No Kendall? No Big Dick? NO CASABLANCAS CLAN AT ALL???? I'm shocked and awed. And a bit disappointed. I never thought I'd see the day where I missed Dick being in an episode. But that day is totally here.
- So Wallace's lil bro isn't off at boarding school or something. But I don't think they have the same dad. Do you?
- Why would Alicia being willing to shot to keep this a secret? There's gotta be more going on.
- I'm glad V's gonna be working for her dad. I think that's what she needs to continue getting back to the Real V.
- I still hate VD. HATE IT!
- Poor Logan. He's learning the importance of an alibi. It was soooo obvious, even with all the snarky behavior, that it really hurt him that V's still thinking the worse of him.
- Speaking of thinking the worse of Logan, why hasn't V learned her lesson yet?
- WOOHOO! Weevil! I'd missed that smug bastard. :D hehe.
"You rub my head..." There needs to be an icon that says that!!! With, um, picks of Logan and Weevil and V. hehe.
- Lamb got the better of Keith??? Damn, love is making Keith a marshmallow.
- I'm glad they dealt with the whole "Jackie all over some guy thing" so early on. Now I can go back to enjoying her bitchy side. "How high?" hehe.
- I LOVED LOVED LOVED Logan's response when he first saw V!!!
"Ok. God, I just can't take the begging. I'll relent, just once. But no cuddling after, and I won't call you in the morning." AWESOME! He totally doesn't have to call me, erm, Veronica, in the morning. :D That would make a kick-ass icon, too!
But did you see the jaw clench? As V lays out her "facts", he's totally doing the jaw clench. Poor Logan.
While I don't condone spying or sneaking around on a significant other, V totally should have read those files. There's something else going on with that too. I don't trust Duncan. I don't get why HE'D get the files. Perhaps this is supposed to be a sign that V's grown up enough to have a more "mature" relationship where she doesn't always think the worse of the person she's involved with (STILL not something she offers Logan), but I think this is all gonna come around and bite her on the ass. And she has it coming.
Wow, that psycho blond was a mess. Why is V making all her major/emotional decisions based on the actions and feelings of people she doesn't even know? (for example: sleeping with Donut just because someone was talking about missed opportunities??) I understand that people are often spurred to action by tragedies, but I never thought V was so easily swayed by the "heat" of the moment.
I'm still surprised that Lamb hasn't thrown the whole "dead guy with your daughter's name on his hand" thing in Keith's face. But maybe he's waiting for the most deliciously evil moment to toss it.
So what's the excuse for Duncan's random emotional behavior now? Is he still on anti-depressants? What? Because he's all cheery and happy-go-lucky about the bus crash and Meg one day, and then the next he's camping out at the hospital all concerned and angsty. It just doesn't make any sense. And the thing that REALLY pisses me off is that if Logan was pulling all this weird shit he'd be investigating him immediately, assuming the worse and being totally suspicious. *sigh*
All in all, I love this episode. I felt like, maybe, too much time was wasted on psycho blond chick, but other than that. It was a really great episode. And I want to be really excited about next week. But since more than half the promo was all jazz and whatnot (see rant at beginning of post), I'm a bit apprehensive. But we'll see.
And, again, WHERE THE FUCK ARE THE CASABLANCAS CLAN???
Done now. :D

Oh, and pimpin' ain't easy but I have love so great for these communities that I can't help myself:
If you thought "Poor, pretty Logan" when V was being *insert anything but the words "making out", "givin' him some" or other such activities* to him then you should totally check out: loganlovers4eva!
We LOVE Logan. And we love pic spam. And we LOVE pretty much all things Logan. And food descriptions. And having nothing but slutty intentions toward Logan. I think I've painted an accurate picture. :D
If you think a VM episode isn't complete without some Dick (teehee), then you will kick yourself for not checking out: ourcabanaboy! It's all about the awesomeness of Dick. (I LOVE THAT HIS NAME IS DICK!) We also love other members of the Casablancas clan. Come on by: There are some really cool icons that lostt1 made (and I'd already be using some except I don't have a paid account, so I'm limited on my icon usage). Plus, some sexy Dick pic spam!
And, last but not least, if the sight of V/D (or VD as I like to put it) makes you want to hurl up every dinner you've had for the past week then this community is for YOU: vm_penicillin! I love this community to PIECES! It makes me laugh, it lets me vent my VDRage! It's good times all around. There are polls and challenges and icons you can make Mock-Captions for and there's PLENTY of snark. I LOVE SNARK!
