Veronica Mars Season 3

[annundriel]

I think ginnith and olivelavonne will understand how I feel about the news I found on Neptunesite for next season.

The general spoiler page is here. Now, mostly I don't want to be spoiled for the plot(s) of next season, but this was a casting thing and, well, that's not quite the same thing.

Series creator Rob Thomas is said to be looking to add Michael Muhney (Sheriff Lamb) and Tina Majorino (Mac) as series regulars next season. Kyle Gallner (Beaver), Teddy Dunn (Duncan), and Tessa Thompson (Jackie) will be gone.

BYE DUNCAN. Blandy McBlanderson.

I don't mind if he comes back every now and then, but regularly would be a little more than I would like. I mean, what would they do with him?

For some reason, I keep thinking of how Riley left on Buffy and then randomly showed up again a season or so later. Married. That could happen to Duncan. Or something. I'd be fine with that.

Even so, just because they aren't in the credits doesn't mean they're not on the show. Lamb could remain a guest star forever and ever (which would suck, admittedly).

Plus, Lamb can always interact with Keith. I would love more Keith plots. I ♥ him. (You seriously have no idea how much I love Keith.) And Veronica may be in college, but it's never been seriously suggested that this is the end of her crime solving days. Keith may say it is, but Veronica just rolls her eyes and says, "Right, Dad."

Leo still leaves me cold. Jailbait! He's an officer and he's dating jailbait! Not a good role model. And the non-enunciation.

I wouldn't mind Duncan coming back occasionally, just as long as he and Veronica don't hook up.

I get Kevin vibes from him half the time and that's just weird. He doesn't belong in my plotline.

Explain? Kevin?

Re-watching the show, I've noticed how much I miss the Keith plots. I mean, he got some in season 2, but not nearly as many of the fun ones in season 1. He's such an awesome dad.

I think my thing with Leo is that I think he'd actually make a pretty good cop and I'd like to see him involved in a case here and there. I like familiar people, and he's one that I liked.

I think Duncan looks like Kevin Frei. I think I've mentioned that. There are just times that Duncan's pauses or sense of humor are really similar to Kevin's. It's really awkward seeing him every once in a while now and relating the two.

Other character I would love to see back? Lynn Echolls. I know, she's supposed to be dead, but wouldn't it be neat if she were in some sort of a program to escape psychotic husbands or if she were a spy or something? I really like her as a character, and her interactions with Keith are really great. I wouldn't mind seeing her again.

And I feel the need to use this icon because I rarely get to.

So there were some show/character question memes going around a little while ago and when I'm bored I'll find one and answer the questions myself. Randomly once I ended up with the question, "Who would you date from VM?" My answer? Keith. As much as I love Logan (and, oh, you know I do), he's got some serious issues. But Keith is wonderful and smart and witty and a dork and not traumatized by his parents. And, yes, I'm well aware that this is weird issues that I'd date Keith, but he's kind of like Wash on Firefly for me. Totally the type of guy I'd like to hang out with, y'know?

Okay, I can see what you're saying with Leo. There's potential there for him being an ally. Or even being someone Veronica has to work against. I think that would be interesting.

I don't think I'd heard the Kevin thing before, but now that you say it, that's kind of frightening.

It would be nice if Lynn wasn't dead. What would that do to Logan, I wonder? I mean, to an extent, if she did do it to get away from Aaron, she abandoned him. Poor Logan. :( But, yes, it would be cool if they could bring her back somehow.

I'd like to take your icon's question and raise it a "No seriously, Logan, why is your shirt still on?!"
