VMI 1.07: The Girl Next Door

A LONG TIME AGO, ON VERONICA MARS

  • Logan and Weevil are stuck in detention together - and honestly, that’s all we need for this episode.

  • But there is more - Veronica’s (beautiful) pregnant neighbour Jessica Chastain disappears…

  • …And her (scraggly) boyfriend doesn’t seem upset about it.

  • Veronica discovers some shocking information about her mom!

  • And the school flagpole is back causing trouble.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 7: The Girl Next Door, and probe such mysteries as whether to book ourselves in for a stay at the motel that plays the Mars apartment, how many crimes it is to impale a teacher’s car on a flagpole, and why hot teens might be compelled to wear garments in a shade we can only describe as ‘light liver’.

VMI 1.06: Return of the Kane

A Long Time Ago on Veronica Mars:

  • We meet Logan’s dad - and swiftly wish we hadn’t.

  • Duncan’s dad makes him run for class president.

  • Also running for president: rebellious Wanda! A new friend for Veronica - or is she?

  • Logan’s got a new hobby: running amateur boxing tournaments.

  • Veronica finds out something majorly dodgy in Lilly’s murder files.

  • And: Jane Lynch in alpha mode! Our favourite flavour of Jane Lynch.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 6: Return of the Kane, and consider such mysteries as why legs are not universally known as ‘getaway sticks’, why Neptune High’s pirate points merit system seems relevant only to the sportif and/or the rich, and whether we actually LOVE and ADMIRE Duncan in this episode?!?!?

VMI 1.05: You Think You Know Somebody

A Long Time Ago on Veronica Mars:

  • Smuggling steroids from Mexico doesn’t go according to plan;

  • Keith’s happy to be dating again;

  • Veronica is NOT happy Keith is dating again;

  • Logan is the least jerky jerk, for once in his precious life!

  • And Jenny’s visceral hatred for Troy at last proves to be justified.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 5: You Think You Know Somebody, and consider such mysteries as whether there are really snoopers’ websites like privateeyez.com, why Veronica is scuppering Keith’s dating life, what Malibu the American Gladiator is - OH WHO CARES WHEN ALL THAT MATTERS IS THAT, AT LAST, JENNY’S NEMESIS SMUGFACE McSMUG IS BANISHED FROM NEPTUNE!

VMI 1.02: Credit Where Credit's Due

A Long Time Ago on Veronica Mars:

  • Weevil & his grandma were both framed for credit card fraud;

  • Logan was cheated on by Paris Hilton, but we are glad because he said some heinously classist & racist stuff in this episode; 

  • Some guy named Troy shows up and appears to be nice but says some rather douchey things;

  • Keith singlehandedly caught an escaped felon;

  • And Wallace just really wants to go to a party. Please let him go to a party, Veronica - any party!

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 2: Credit Where Credit's Due, and ponder such mysteries as whether Paris Hilton has ever ridden a scooter before, why Sheriff Lamb’s zingers are SO bad, and where do the other students relieve themselves when Veronica is using the school bathroom as her office.
