Rape is a very serious matter and a terrible crime. That being said, why was it so unintentionally funny to hear a UPN promo boldly ask us "WHO RAPED VERONICA MARS???" Maybe it was the forwardness of the question. Maybe it was the subtle exploitation of rape for ratings. Or maybe it was the announcer whose overly dramatic gravitas seemed ripped from a Batman trailer. Either way, I think I might have to finally check this show out.

Veronica Mars looks none too happy in that promo pic.

Seriously, Vernica Mars rocks. I am completely addicted. If you have space in your Tivo, catch the last two episodes. They are wrapping up two huge story lines and I think you will love it!! I only hope they don't get lame with who raped her and it's some random character, but I wouldn't be suprised...

People keep telling me to watch Veronica Mars, but aside from the lack of tivo space... I can't watch whatever-the-main-character's-name-is. You see once when I was home from work sick, I watched this awful Lifetime movie calle Gracie's Choice. The same girl was in it and obviously I'm very traumatized by my non-Golden Girls Lifetime watching experience.

I just started watching this show, and I regret not watching it from the beginning. Thanks to the amazing technology called bittorrent, I've been able to download the first 20 eps, and I have so far watched more then half. It's easily one of the best new series of the season. Glad to hear that is had been renewed. I can see why the series is critically acclaimed. It's hard to stop watching once you get into it.

Spoiler if you didn't watch Tuesay's episode...
Veronica wasn't raped!! Woo hoo!!
She just had sex with her old boyfriend who is potentially her brother, that's all...What a relief...
