Meet and greet

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

Before the insanity begins, let's have a general discussion post so that you all can have an outlet for what I am sure is your EXTREME EXCITEMENT! Talk about your favorite moments in the show, share your thoughts and suggestions about the community, or just detail every sexual fantasy you've had that involves Percy Daggs III. We won't judge.

I'M EXCITED.

I'm going to use this re-watch as an Echolls and me bonding time. ;)

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

YAY! I'M EXCITED TOO! :D

That sounds like a fantastic idea. I got all excited typing out the episode tags, remembering how many times I watched 1x18-1x20. Oh, those were good days.

[wordsflow.livejournal.com]

I can't wait to fall in love with this show once again. :(

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

Me neither - I've missed it so much. VERONICA, I NEED YOU BACK IN MY LIFE!

Your icon is great. :D

One of my friends has gotten so sick of me talking about the show (I only starting watching around the beginning of the year) that she wants to watch so I think we're going to follow your schedule! The first time I watched the show I flew through it so I'm excited to rewatch it slowly.

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

EXCELLENT! I have a couple of friends I'm hoping to sucker into this as well. :D The VM love must be spread!

I watched it while it was on the air, so flying through it was not an option, but I've done a few mad marathons since. I figured an hour a week wasn't too much to ask of people, and first-timers can go through all the mysteries at a regular TV pace. I hope you and your friend have fun with this!

Hi hi hi! I've been watching with my mom (we start S2 this week) so I'm just here for discussion, but.. The Veronica love is definitely strong in this house now. On Friday, we had the last 3 eps of season one left, and my mom was really tired and said she could only stay awake for two. I told her either watch one, or you will want to watch all three.

We wound up watching all three.

[winter-dreams86.livejournal.com]

I was going to re-watch the series anyway, and now there's a community for it, so score! I'm excited! :)

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

That's so awesome! :D Now you have a whoooole bunch of company!

[filmtx.livejournal.com]

I haven't been able to watch the show since it was cancelled. But last week at Breakout Beyond, we had a VM watching party in the hotel room and played the VM drinking game. It made me miss the show so much. This rewatch couldn't have happened at a better time. I'm really looking forward to it.

As for my favorite moment, it would have to be the moment I think I was officially hooked on VM. The last scene of 1x04 (Wrath of a Con). I love that episode so hard. The ending was perfect. But I'll save all my reasons for the discussion.

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

Oh, Breakout Beyond sounded awesome. And the VM drinking game! Why have I not played this before?! Where are the rules?! :D

The end of "The Wrath of Con" was transcendental. The whole Kane family, and Weevil, and the Logan-Veronica looks ... oh MAN. Yeah. Saving for discussion, yes. XD

[filmtx.livejournal.com]

The rules are simple. Get a favorite alcoholic beverage. Watch VM. Everytime anyone says "Veronica Mars," take a drink. Of course, we were in full party mode, and we decided we weren't getting buzzed fast enough. So we changed the rules. Every time someone said "Veronica" we took one sip. Everytime someone said "Veronica Mars" we took two. Didn't take long to get nice and buzzed. After that we all went to the Breakout party where I danced "The Molly Ringwald" with Ryan Hansen to the song "99 Red Balloons." Then he dry humped my leg in front of his wife. Good times.

[marmar627.livejournal.com]

This is an amazing story, I won't lie.

[filmtx.livejournal.com]

Not that amazing, really. Ryan danced with a bunch of people. Not just me.

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

That sounds awesome! I like the party version. :D

And: LOLOLOLOLO. Ryan Hansen is actually Dick Casablancas in real life! Thank you for that story.

[filmtx.livejournal.com]

He's only like Dick Casablancas in his goofiness. In real life, he's much smarter and has a big heart. His wife is really sweet, too. Didn't seem to mind her husband humping my leg. I think she's used to it.

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

Awww. That's good to hear, actually! I love couples who can hang out and have fun and not be possessive. I like to think Jon Stewart's wife wouldn't mind me being his mistress ... *_*

Ahem. My point being, goofiness wins.

[skysaveme.livejournal.com]

I just learned about this community today, and I'm excited. This is such a great idea. I came into the VM fandom pretty late, so it'll be nice to rewatch these episodes and actually be in on the action this time. Y'all rock for putting this together.

[skysaveme.livejournal.com]

And since you mentioned it, Wallace never got much love in that sorta way, but Percy is definitely hot. Mmm. I mean...Yeah. *nods*

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

Wallace is so totally awesome. And Percy is amazing. And then he became an aerospace engineer, which is what I was in school for, and I think I was just permanently stuck on AAAAAH! after that!

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! :D And EVERYBODY deserves to be in the thick of VM fandom! Here's hoping the rewatch will start it up a bit, again.

[laiquendai.livejournal.com]

wow, I'm sure someone must be reading my mind - I really wanted to start re-watching, but thought my flist would think I was mad if I started doing posts about it, and now they don't have to.

Looking forward to chatting with everyone about the episodes...

*ETA* I'm looking forward to boring you all with my constant Weevil love!!

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

Dude -- that is awesome. So looking forward to having you participate! :DDDD

WEEVIL LOVE YOU LONGTIME. <3

[leobrat.livejournal.com]

You certainly won't be boring me!

[little-linds.livejournal.com]

I think this is an excellent idea! I'm super stoked to be re-watching it with some fellow VM fans.

I think my favorite scene from Season 1 scene is the Wow Sugarpuss scene in Ruskie Business...gets me everytime! :)

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much! I'm totally excited, too! :D

"Ruskie Business" was great. I totally have a soft spot for it. Especially the part when Keith speaks Russian.

[frankdbunny.livejournal.com]

Hi everyone!

Looking forward to rewatching this wonderful show with everyone. One of the few things better than watching Veronica Mars is sharing the excitement with everyone, so I'm glad so many folks are on board.

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

Totally! :D Thanks for joining!

And your icon -- OMG KEITH.

[leobrat.livejournal.com]

This was a fabulous idea, I've seriously been missing the show so much. Looking forward to some good conversation, too, I was only watching live the third season, and I'd love to have some long convo's on the early eps!

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

Long convos on the early eps is AWESOME. :D We have so many great participants, I'm sure the discussion will be excellent!

I love your icon.

[love-is-epic.livejournal.com]

Yay!!!! This is a fabulous idea! I'm always looking for an excuse to break out the box sets! (Not that I always *need* an excuse, LOL)

I'm excited and I hope this gets my fanfic muse in gear, LOL!

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

Ooooh, yes, FANFIC! That's actually part of the reason I wanted to start this. :D

I'm so glad you like the idea. This is going to be awesome!

[marmar627.livejournal.com]

I actually just re-watched 1 & 2 but this sounds super amazing! I want to re-live every LoVe moment.

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

Dude, me too. Except for maybe the sadness of S3.

[zeft.livejournal.com]

I UPLOADED A LOGAN ICON ESPECIALLY FOR THIS.

And I never type in caps. So yes, excited.

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

AND A WONDERFUL ICON IT IS INDEED.

<3

[simply-vm.livejournal.com]

Im andy and i am totally in love with VM and want to do this!!!
If you need graphics or anything feel free to ask too!

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

YAY! :DDD VM is awesome. And thanks for the offer!

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

So I'm thinking of doing a little Veronica Mars trivia contest for this Wednesday, since the viewing schedule doesn't begin until next week. Would you be willing to do like 5 custom icons (or a header, or something) for the winner? (I looked at a few of your icons and I think they're great!)

[simply-vm.livejournal.com]

sorry it took me so long to reply
I am happy to supply 5 icons. only.

thanks

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

Eh, don't even worry about it -- we're starting the watching + discussion now anyway. But thanks! :D

[lola1482.livejournal.com]

I've been meaning to rewatch my VM DVDs- this is perfect!

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

Awesome! I'm so happy you're joining us!

[christykq.livejournal.com]

Wow, what a great idea. I came very late to the VM train and totally missed all of the discussions about the eps as they aired. I can't wait to see what others have to say about each ep. Usually when I rewatch I see things I missed before and it's been a while since I've broken out the DVDs so I'm really looking forward to this.

I'm hoping this sparks some fics out of a few great writers too.

My fav ep is An Echolls Family Christmas and I bet you can't guess who my fav character is...

[chantarelle.livejournal.com]

such a perfect time for this, since i JUST caved and bought all 3 seasons on DVD (rather than the varying levels of quality downloaded eps lol)

I'm so excited to go through it all again from the beginning and with people to discuss it with! since the only VM fan i talk to is anti-LoVe i hope i won't be alone in my love here?

[aki.livejournal.com]

I hate all you people with your fancy dee-vee-dees and your dee-vee-dee players who can just watch the last two episodes of Season 1. I WAITED for those episoes. I SUFFERED for those episodes. PAIN.

Ahem. Hi, I loaned a friend my season 1 DVDs, but I'll catch up with you all in few episodes. I watched the series quite casually at first (the line that hooked me? "Want to know how I lost my virginity? So do I.") and regularly by January. I caught part of the first episode on cable one day and thought MTV had a new show - cause NOTHING good was ever on UPN. Nothing with those production values, anyway.

Anyway. I'll catch up near the end of July. I've actually never seen "An Echolls Family Christmas". I've been saving myself for a rewatch. So should be fun.

[queenlila.livejournal.com]

OH MY GOD. i just found this community today and im sooo excited. I've only had the internet on for about 5 months and i had 1 main reason for doing so - to see the last season of Veronica Mars - only the first 3 episodes were shown in Australia. It took me awhile to find good places to watch it and when i did i just decided to rewatch some of my fave eps... then i decided to rewatch the pilot.. and so on and so forth. I still haven't seen that 3rd season yet! I'm so stoked that i found this community just in time! Now if you'll excuse me im off to watch the pilot again. Now that i have an excuse!!!!
