HOLY FUCK HOLY FUCK HOLY FUCK. I CAN'T BREATHE. I SERIOUSLY CAME TO MY ROOM AND JUST STARTED LIKE HYPERVENTILATING.

OH MAAAAN DO NOT LET THIS BE THE LAST EPISODE EVER. I MEAN, AWESOME, SO AWESOME, BUT DON'T LET IT END. TOO GOOD.

BEAVER! KEITH ALMOST BLOWN UP! VERONICA AND LOGANNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I PROBABLY SHOULD NOT BE WRITING UP MY THOUGHTS ON THIS WHEN I'M IN THIS STATE OF MIND.

Ok, calmed myself down a little, and took my finger off the shift key.

Read some opinions now, and I get how people can say how it came out of nowhere and it was bullshit and stuff, but I still think it made perfect sense. Everything tied together really nicely, IMO. And people were calling Beaver for being responsible to the buscrash. Not everyone, obviously, but there were enough that I jokingly considered him (though I never thought it actually would be him). People said the same about Aaron, how it came out of nowhere, total crap, etc. But people still figured it out ahead of time, so there must have been some clues. No, I didn't get it, but it makes perfect sense to me. And yeah, I loved Beaver, and I loved Beaver/Mac. But I think it's awesome anyways.

I love how things from even last season tied in. Veronica's chlamydia with her rape and with Beaver was just... holy fuck. (Although I do have to call BS on the fact that Veronica didn't get checked right after she was raped to make sure she didn't have any STDs, like chlamydia, and take the morning after pill, and all that jazz. I think if she did have chlamydia, she would've caught it way sooner. But, at the same time, I'll suspend belief because I think it's so awesome how we thought it was all settled last year and then it came back and it worked and made sense. At least, it did to me.) And man. Beaver's insecurities about sex with Mac, being just a small piece of this larger picture where Woody molested him and oh man. I'm sorry, I know some people just hated this episode, but I cannot express how much I love it. (Although really, for Veronica Mars, I'm not hard to please.)

Um, ok. Other stuff. ALICIA. CLARENCE WIEDMAN. DUNCAN ORDERING AARON'S DEATH!!! LILLY!!!!!!

Ok, maybe I'm not so calmed down.

The "What if Lilly Hadn't Died?" Graduation was aaaaaewsome. And, hee, still ends up with Logan. I loved that little bit. The real graduation was just as awesome, though, if not more so. When Veronica got up on that stage and people were actually applauding and cheering for her, it felt kind of like when Buffy was voted Class Protector. Different situations, of course, but it's like... Veronica's been helping them out all this time, and maybe she doesn't know them very well and they have heard terrible things about her, but she really has helped so many of them.

Poor Mac. Poor, poor Mac. She finally got Beaver back and things were moving forward, and then it turns out he's kind of crazy. I really hope Mac's a regular next year.

Beaver "killing" Keith was ugh. So painful. I mean, most of me wanted to believe that they would never, ever kill off Keith, but... I mean, at the same time, I didn't think they'd ever actually make Beaver responsible for the bus crash (let alone raping Veronica last season), so... there was a large part of me that really believed they had killed him off. But the next morning, when Logan was hugging Veronica I'm like "WAIT A SECOND I HEARD SOMETHING. OMG KEITH KEITH KEITH." AND THEN THERE HE WAS! Oh, man. Kristen Bell was so amazing in both the scenes, where she thought he was dead and when he was back.

Speaking of Logan! Oh, man. You know, earlier in the season, I was like "Ok, this is what's going to happen: yeah, Duncan and Veronica are together, but after awhile of trying to recreate their "perfect" relationship, they'll realize that they've both changed and they really can't go back to that relationship, and so they'll break up." But then they did break up, and it wasn't at all like I had hoped; instead, they were still going off on how "true love stories never die" and such, and I was getting concerned. Still, Veronica and Logan were softening towards each other, and I still believed what I had originall, that after Duncan and Veronica broke up, that Logan and Veronica would slowly warm up to each other and by the finale they would be back together again. But throughout the second half of the season, my belief in that scenario started fading. Even tonight I still had a small hope that they'd get back together, but I didn't think it really would. BUT IT DID. IT SO DID. My prediction for Veronica's relationships this season was so spot-on. AND MAN. LOGAN COMING TO HER RESCUE. KISSING!!!

This better not end up like last season, though, with their entire relationship being left to summer and then them breaking up in the first episode.

Oh god. Next season. It's not even for sure yet. I've seen all over my friendslist "IS IT FALL YET?!" and "It needs to be season 3 now" but the thing is, it's totally not for certain. It's not even "Well, it's not official yet, but they totally will renew it." Please, please let there be a season three. I'll explode if there isn't one. :(

Geez, what haven't I covered? My mind's been bouncing from scene to scene. Oh, right. Jackie and Wallace. Eh. Didn't really care, especially with everything else going on. I have to say, though, I hate Jackie significantly less than I did at the start of the season. At least there's that.

Oh, god. My brain is still spinning. Maybe tomorrow I'll have some more coherent things to say.

Edit: Oh, ok, there is one thing I did miss that I did actually care about: Weevil. Man, I really wanted him to walk. I knew he would have to be arrested and I knew that he wasn't going to be able to, just because he wanted to so much, but... I was still hoping. Poor Weevil. Poor Weevil's grandmother. :(

major WORD to everything. i'm not even going to say any more about it because it would just be a bunch of "i totally agree"'s all down the page.

Heh, well I'm glad I'm not the only one who's been thinking this way. :)

BEAVER.

He was so cute in the ep before this one, with the algebra, and now he's gone and I really wanted to make Beaver icons when I finlly watched the new season. :(

Yay LoVe!

[http://users.livejournal.com/brokenrecord__/]

I know! I loved him so much before! I still can't believe they made him the murderer.

Hee, yes!

Ok so i am goign to quote my Friend Snailey

"This isn't a spoiler, but the best lines in the episode?

"CW?"
"It's a done deal."

Thats the furtherest from subtle you can get."

Ok so you no about UPN and some other network joining and becoming the CW network right??
So do you think they were trying to tell us something?

I am praying they were

[http://users.livejournal.com/brokenrecord__/]

I do know about that, and I loved that line so much. I think that the line means one of two things: 1) They don't know if they're picked up for sure, but it's just sort of a... Well, like, I watched Arrested Development, who was cancelled on FOX, but there were rumors of Showtime picking it up, and they had a line in like the last episode of "It's Showtime!" But in the end, they didn't end up going to Showtime (and not even because Showtime didn't pick them up, but because the creator didn't want to), so I think it's kind of like that line. 2) They have been picked up for sure, but Rob Thomas isn't allowed to tell until it's announced publicly, so he's just saying "I don't know yet" when in reality this was a little subtle message to let the fans know they have been picked up.

Heh, did any of that make any sense? I would absolutely love for it to be scenario #2, but I'm more inclined to believe it's #1. Plus, I'm just overly pessimistic, so I'm going to keep believing it's not going to get picked up until they announce it in 2 weeks.

[campmotha.livejournal.com]

ohh yea made perfect sense hun, i am banking on 2, It has to be picked up, i mean ist so freaking awesome, i love VM

[xfellx.livejournal.com]

Oh my God yes! Totally right there with you on the OH MY GOD!-ness hehe :). Wow, I loved this episode.

I for sure criedalmost cried when they didn't let Weevil walk, aww-ness.

And oh my God, I feel so bad for Mac, I heart her muchly!

OMFG YES VERONICA/LOGAN-LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is all.

[http://users.livejournal.com/brokenrecord__/]

Hee. Awesome, I'm glad I'm not the only one who has these opinions. :)

I don't think I went very far into it in my post, so I'll say totally with you on Mac. Seeing her sitting on the ground all wet and only in a towel looking so shocked/upset it was just completely heartbreaking. But I was mostly just happy that Beaver hadn't killed her. I was so afraid that Veronica would go into the room and find Mac lying there dead.

[xfellx.livejournal.com]

Oh my gosh yeah, when it showed the bed, and then Veronica looking all horrified I was about to freak out, because I thought for sure Mac was dead and oh man, it was scary because she's so awesome hehe.

YESYESYES.

(Although I do have to call BS on the fact that Veronica didn't get checked right after she was raped to make sure she didn't have any STDs, like chlamydia, and take the morning after pill, and all that jazz. I think if she did have chlamydia, she would've caught it way sooner. But, at the same time, I'll suspend belief because I think it's so awesome how we thought it was all settled last year and then it came back and it worked and made sense. At least, it did to me.)
Uhh, ditto to this. I thought about that as I was watching because I'm nearly positive they make you get checked for all that stuff after you've been raped. I just figured that it was Duncan who had given it to her then until it was all pieced together.

it felt kind of like when Buffy was voted Class Protector.
So I'm not the only one that thought that. It made me cryyyy. :(

Re next season: Kristen Bell's got a five year contract, so I doubt this will be the last season. Although, what *is* happening with UPN. They're dissolving, yeah? :/

[http://users.livejournal.com/brokenrecord__/]

Ah, yes, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that during the episode. I mean, I think when you report a rape to the police (Sheriff, in this case) they do tell you to go get checked and all, and in this case Lamb just totally laughed her off and acted like she was faking it. But at the same time, even if he wasn't encouraging her to go get checked, I think Veronica would be smart enough to get checked.

Ah, yay, I'm also glad I'm not the only one who saw the Graduation/Class Protector similarities. I loved everyone applauding her so much, and how very surprised she was.

UPN and the WB are merging into one network, The CW. Which means there's even less space for shows than there would be if we were just worrying about UPN picking up VM again. I heard she had a five year contract, too, but I've also been told that that doesn't mean the show will go for 5 years, just that she's... obliged to stay for 5 years, I guess. Then after that she can choose to leave or renew her contract. But that doesn't mean that she'll definitely be working on VM for the 5 years, either. If they want to cancel the show, then they will.
