It would be about time a chick on Veronica Mars showed some skin after Logan streaked threw class earlier this year or the obligatory shirtless surfing shots like the one from last night (although Chip Diller is very close to needing a Manzier, or is it a Bro). I would have been content if the sample picture was of the PHAT chick because she was uber-cute in a nerdy kind of way, but of course it was the dude that disrobed for the picture. Hopefully now that Parker is getting back into the saddle she gets back to emulating the Pussycat Dolls again because I’d sure like to loosen up her buttons.

Yeah…I was beginning to feel alone…Piz is NOT good for Veronica. I’m really happy for Mac, too. The show was really great and I’m so glad it’s back on again.

I agree with you Emma. Why would she go from someone she has such passionate chemestry with to someone better suited to be her friend and maybe be a romantic possibility for Parker or Mac.

I don’t understand why anyone is pulling for Piz and Veronica getting together. It’s just another side story going on to give Piz something to do.

I know I’m supposed to feel sorry for Piz because he has a crush on someone who clearly isn’t into him. The writers are screaming it in every scene they write. Just because I’m supposed to feel sorry for him, I’m not going to pull for him to win Veronica when they clearly aren’t the epic couple.

I guess I’m just really bored seeing the same Piz puppy-dog routine over and over again. I rather see Piz set-up with some girl who suits him better. I only see friendly chemistry with KB and CL. Exploring a romantic relationship looks like a bust waiting to happen. He and Veronica just don’t work, romantically.

I hope Mac and Bronson work out and that Bronson isn’t a physco. Mac deserves someone great, and he seems great (but so did Beaver). I think he’s so cute. I thought he was Adriene Grenier at first. It must be his smile.

I was SO happy when LoVe got back together. It’ll be bad next week when she finds out about skanky girl from the beach. I wonder if she’s going to end up being pregnant. That’s what the previews looked like to me.

Great recap and *awesome* selection of screen caps from this episode. I especially loved the one with Gil and the monkey on his head because that scene made me laugh out loud.

And I totally see the Adriene Grenier thing – good call!

I know Eric from Happy Endings and Night Stalker (another good show that got cancelled). I thought I knew him from The Life of David Gale but apparently that was a different guy.

It is…and in my mind’s ear that’s what I was hearing…but you are right and it’s been fixed

Oh and Amanda you are right about Gil being played by Eric Jungmann, which outs me as someone who watched that MK and Ashley show….d’oh!!

I think it’s “shtooping”. Good word.

I believe Eric Jungmann played Gil, but IMDB isn’t listing VM on his credits: http://imdb.com/name/nm0432657/. But it definitely looks like him. I recognized him from that Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen movie, “Winning London.” Don’t judge! I loved that movie. He also guested on “Cold Case,” “CSI” and “8 Simple Rules…for Dating My Teenage Daughter.”

last nights episode was so good… i agree with you about pulling for both piz and logan… i like LoVe together, but I like them apart too… and how adorable is Piz? i was so happy to see Mac back this ep (her 3rd of the season?). i love the interaction between V and M. it’s great.

and i just have to say that i LOVE parkers wig! where’d she get it done?
