I was a reluctant fan of Veronica Mars, and refused to watch it until almost the end of the first season (I didn't appreciate the constant comparisons to Buffy) -- but it is now one of my favorite shows of all time, and if it doesn't get renewed for a fourth season, someone is dying.

A few thoughts on the latest episode:

MUCH better than last week's. Last week's was fine -- Veronica Mars is almost never bad -- but it lacked the clever twists and subtle touches I expect.

Nicest touch? Paul Rudd's character donning a "Working Class Hero" t-shirt only minutes after his argument with Keith about the Beatles. Took me a minute to even realize the significance.

In general, I was very happy with Rudd's guest spot. He's been a favorite of mine for a long time (Clueless, Anchorman, 40-Year-Old Virgin -- the man usually chooses terrific movies), and we can now add his name to a list of cool VM guest starts (Hannigan, Whedon, Carpenter -- who am I missing?).

Fun episode. This non-arc format might just work out.

Last night's episode was so good! I miss the background mystery, but I hope the new format will at least buy us another season.

In other news, Veronica Mars was winning the E! Online Save One Show poll until Gilmore Girls came from third place at the last minute. But Veronica did so well in the poll that E! decided to support the return of both shows and called it a tie for the first time ever. Here's hoping that counts for something!
