Veronica Mars

Ok... seriously... I just watched the pilot episode of Veronica Mars, and memories of ILB came flooding back... it's way too eerie how much Veronica Mars (Kristen Bell) sounds and acts like Janissary James (Kari Wahlgren)...
Almost for that reason alone, I feel suddenly hooked on VM Smile
Strangely enough, Kristen looks exactly like I pictured Jan James, and sounds exactly like Kari... it's too freaky.

Anyone else watch Veronica Mars at all? I believe the first season is already finished...

if there ever is a tv or movie adaptation or continuation of ILB, Kristen Bell is definitely the girl to cast as Jan.

ok, I know it's 'bad etiquette' to reply to your own post, but I just have to emphasis how taken aback I am at how much Kristen Bell IS Janissary James... so much it's freaky...
Cool Smile

Veronica Mars is syndicated by UPN, so you may have to check your local listings.

-- Steve hasn't seen the series yet, though it's airing on CTV up here. May have to set the VCR.

Dude. If Veronica Mars is Jan James, then her dad is James James. That's just what I pictured him looking like.

hehe told ye! Apparently the first season is done, but CTV is showing them only now and announcing them as 'new'... *shrug* I'm just downloading the season of the net episode by episode Smile

but ya, it's freakily ironic how similar Veronica & her dad are to Jan & James, at least in character... plotwise it's totally different and in our time, but still... I was hooked. And it's fairly intelligent mystery too, like mini-args each episode with the one underlying mystery throughout the season...

plus, the creators of VM seem to be supporters of Xbox Smile I've counted many episode where the xbox makes appearances... weavil's family owns one. And there was a LAN party in one episode where they were all playing Xbox - Unreal Championship was the centre of attention at the one...

still, I like I like Laughing

We're counting on you to tell us when Veronica gets involved with a street punk and her dad starts talking about being a super soldier.

there's even the issue of whether he's her real dad or not... and neither of them know for sure... but I won't spoil the ending Smile

Actually, she has now hooked up with a spoiled rich punk and the leader of the biker gang.

(Yay new VM episodes this week!)

I knew there was a reason I never made my sis change the channel when she'd put that on in my room....
