Did you watch the movie and the fourth season of Veronica Mars? If so what did you think of it?
yes!!! love love love the movie (maybe minus the arc they gave to weevil) purely for nostalgia reasons. so nostalgic I based a whole fic on it actually 💀
and...season 4 only exists insofar as it gives us more Logan and Veronica content but absolutely the end of season 4 never happened and we don't talk about it
SOMEONE MURDER ME END OF SEASON 4 NOBODY WHOS WATCHING FINISH VERONICA MARS THE ENDING WASNT RESL YALL PLS
(me ranting in in detail under cut so spoiler warning)
LIKE OK, I EXPECT, OR AT LEAST KNEW IT WAS A RISK FOR LOGAN TO DIE EVER SINCE HE WAS CALLED TO SERVICE AGAIN, I THOUGHT THEY WERE GONNA DO WHAT THEY DID, MAKE US WORRY SOMETHING BAD IS GONNA HAPPEN WHILE HES AWAY, MAKE HIM COME BACK HAPPY AND WELL TO GIVE US A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY AND THEN BAM!(LITERALLY) KILL HIM SO THAT NONE OF US CAN EVER FEEL HAPPINESS AGAIN. BUT STILL THEY DIDNT HAVE TO DO IT. LIKE VERONICA WAS FINALLY GONNA HAVE A STABLE LIFE AND GO TO THERAPY WITH HIM, THE THING IVE BEEN SCREAMING SINCE SEASON ONE, INSTEAD THEY JUST MADE EVERYTHING WORSE. I MEAN SHES STILL GOING TO THERAPY, BUT WHAT PUSHED HER IS HER HUSBAND BEING BLOWN UP IN FRONT OF HER WTF.
AND WORST OF ALL VERONICA STILL HASNT BEEN ALLOWED TO FUCKING KILL SOMEONE/HJ
Loving the diversity in the latino characters in Veronica Mars season 4. You have the violent criminal gang latinos AND the mexican drug cartel latinos. #diversity win
So I have a question about Veronica Mars season 4 ? I've never watched it (mostly because I saw That spoiler before I could watch it and I just couldn't do it at the time) but if we take those last 15 ? 10 ? Minutes, is it good ? Objectively speaking I mean.
I can just ignore 10 minutes of content if the rest of it is good.
The Teen Wolf movie is giving me Veronica Mars season 4 vibes. It's like how much do we want to piss off the people that have kept this thing alive all these years? Answer: You just completely killed your show/movie. Congratulations!
So we all agree that it’s totally fucked that it was decided that Veronica Mars wouldn’t be good if she was in a happy relationship?!
It wouldn’t make her too scared to be a badass, in fact I think it could help her be more brave because she knows someone is waiting for her at home and she has something to fight for.
If I had a nickel for every beloved show that destroyed its fandom by having an extremely bad delayed fourth season, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it’s happened twice. 
I still cannot believe Rob Thomas had the absolutely insanely rare anomaly which was two actors having the same level of heat, passion, and chemistry during their entire 15 year working relationship and he absolutely wasted it. A CRIME. He didn’t understand or appreciate what he had. I can think of COUNTLESS couples where by the time the writers actually got them together together there wasn’t that same level of sexual tension between them (Nick and Jess, Booth and Bones, Luke and Lorelai come to mind) and so it never had that same magic as the lead up which these two proved the relationship part can be JUST AS STEAMY as the build up.
I’m like 95% certain it’s because one or both of them have always been attracted to each other and Jason has literally been married the ENTIRE time he’s been on the show 😹 but regardless of the HOW their tension and chemistry will always make me absolutely insane it has me absolutely climbing the walls and gnawing through the furniture.
@itspileofgoodthings tagged me to post gifs from 10 favorite tv shows! haven't done this in a while (2020, 2018) so I'm gonna try to make sure all the new beloveds get in here. they are in a particular order and the order is "gifs I thought looked nice next to each other"
special mention to not a tv show but the miniseries of my heart:
don’t remember who’s been tagged yet so I’m tagging @drharleyquinn-medicinewoman @mademoisellesarcasme @motleysaint @cakeyouareoh @thebirdandhersong @iamfitzwilliamdarcy @contagiousgrace have fun!
Rewatching some shows and I think I’ve put my finger on something.
There is a really important ratio for me that exists between a character being an asshole and a character genuinely caring about other people. For me I can get behind a huge amount of assholery if the character goes out of their way to care about other people (and I get that that tolerance is different for everybody, and is highly situational depending on genre etc.). But when that ratio starts to get messed with without proper acknowledgement/narrative framing by the writers it reeeeaaaaaally bothers me.
If a character starts to not care about people but remains the same amount of asshole while the show carries on as if nothing has changed, I don’t think it’s very good writing. I love a good tragedy, I love a good negative character arc! I just hate when characters behave in a way that suggest a backwards slide or a journey into the dark without the narrative ever acknowledging it. I believe most people would agree that if a character stops caring about people altogether that’s usually a tragedy. So why are there so many shows where that happens and the show doesn’t even bother to acknowledge it? This is just a personal preference but if it’s the type of media with root-for-able characters, then writers can’t fuck around with this ratio without acknowledgement and a narrative framing shift.
