VMI 1.11: Silence of the Lamb

A LONG TIME AGO, ON VERONICA MARS:

  • A serial killer is on the loose, strangling young women with guitar strings.

  • But because the victims are “party girls”, Sheriff Lamb’s not too bothered about investigating.

  • Luckily, Keith Mars IS bothered! He’s on the case! And he’s wearing a suit!

  • Meanwhile, Veronica is investigating high schoolers’ parents - and discovers shocking information about her friend Mac.

  • But to cheer her up, she’s got a new friend, Leo, to extract favours from - her favourite thing.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 11: Silence of the Lamb, and get stuck into such mysteries as: why does this episode hate guitarists SO MUCH? What’s Jenny’s connection with Girls Gone Wild? And what’s so bad about nachos??

VMI 1.03: Meet John Smith

A Long Time Ago on Veronica Mars:

  • A squeaky little freshman hired Veronica to help find his missing father;

  • Duncan threw his medication down the drain, with hallucinatory results;

  • Keith developed a crush on Veronica’s guidance counsellor; 

  • and things heated up between Veronica and the supposedly sexy and charming Troy, but still aren’t as hot as her hot’n’heavy Duncan flashbacks.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 3: Meet John Smith, and ponder such mysteries as whether or not it’s creepy that Keith used his PI Powers to track down his crush to her regular coffee shop; how Veronica can even pretend to enjoy Troy’s prank tales; and whether the writers knew what they were doing with Duncan, or just threw dice at the beginning of each of his scenes to decide whether to go with ⚁ silent but helpful Duncan, ⚂ milky Duncan, ⚄ sardonically-toasting-the-former-family-dog Duncan, or ⚅ one-man production of Grease Duncan.
