New TV Tuesday

Tonight there is new House and new Veronica Mars. Of course, they're opposite one another...

For those who have been hearing about Veronica but have never tuned in, today's cover stories at Salon are all about the show and about it's creator, Rob Thomas (of Cupid... er... fame? Semi-fame? *sob* CUPID!). If you're not a Salon member you'll have to watch an ad first. Big whoop - it's worth it to gain access.

And for those of you who read this and *still* go "Yeah, yeah, teenage detective, y'all are pathetic" - here's a pull-quote:

While such fully realized characters might be common on, say, Deadwood, such depth is unheard of in most teen dramas.

They're comparing VM to Deadwood. 'nuff said.

Vasculitis! Drink!

I'm ... not certain where I come down on the "issue" brought up on this week's House, so I need to mull the deeper stuff a bit. ( One teeny tiny quibble on genetics, and some shallow comments )
