A Frakkin' Heart Attack Support

Veronica Mars may come to a big screen near you!!!

Could This Really Happen?

I may still love AS-P as I read this in Ask Ausiello:

Question: So, what gives? There is no way you could still be at Fox's upfront party. Did you track down AS-P, and, if so, what were the final four words she had in mind for Gilmore Girls?— Katrina
Ausiello: OK, here's the deal: Yes, I tracked her down, but, no, she did not cough up those elusive four words. But wait — there's more. And it's good. No, amazing. No, un-frakkin'-believable. Amazing, even. Wait, did I say that already? Well, it's true. Because just as I was about to brand her a big ol' promise-breaker right there in front of all those industry types, Amy explained why she couldn't divulge her long-ago-planned Gilmore ending. (Gilmore fanatics: This is the time in Sprockets when you either lean on a heavy object or just sit down.) In the next year or two, she hopes to make — wait for it — a two-hour Gilmore Girls TV-movie that ties up all those loose threads! I nearly fell over when she said it — especially given what she told me back in December. (BTW, lest you think Amy was pulling my leg, her partner in life and in showbiz, Dan Palladino, confirmed that a GG reunion pic is something they're interested in pursuing.) And I wasn't the only one floored by this development. "She said what?" gasped Scott Patterson after I relayed the information to him over the phone. "I didn't think she would be interested in doing something like that. But if she says she is, I would seriously consider it." Alexis Bledel was equally stunned. "A Gilmore Girls reunion?" she said with a laugh. "That's certainly not something I had thought of doing. That's really funny, I have no idea how I would feel in a few years. I don't know, I'm sure the script Amy would write would be great, but I guess I'd have to read it and see how I felt at the time." Last but not least, Lauren Graham e-mailed me late last night to say, "Could be a fun idea if everyone wanted to do it. I would do it just to get the four final words out of Amy. They torture me." Stand by for a comment from Warner Bros. big cheese Peter Roth. In the meantime, head over to the Ask Ausiello Discussion Thread and start brainstorming campaign slogans!


NOW: If we could also hear a commitment from Rob Thomas to do a mini movie of VM!

Kirk's Fading Memory

There isn't a better way to say goodbye to Gilmore Girls like Kirk does. So let's hear what his favorite moments are!

Me and My Computer Weep

My computer connection died this morning. I should've known that Moses didn't want me to find out the hard way that Veronica Mars is dead.

It goes to show that CW is not going for class. It is going for the lowest common denominator. The network is not keen to keeping its cerebral viewers. Apparently, CW should be renamed as ADD network: the channel that only appeals to 12 year old boys and girls. It is sad. Sad that I have to subject myself to watching the big 3 this fall. I cannot even say that I am going to really stick around for my Supernatural boys. That I just watch when it's downloaded on the computer.

However, I am rather impressed by Rob Thomas for saying NO THANKS to CW's big brother, CBS, in producing the mystery Broadway show Viva Laughlin which also happens to be produced by my hunky love Hugh Jackman. Way to go!!!

Please join me in saying goodbye to the town of Neptune, murders, mysteries, quirky comebacks and all things marshmellowy. We will miss you.

Here's a little tribute to the show and how a ton of us found ourselves rooting for Logan and Veronica in the first season of the show. This is Troubled Times by Fountains of Wayne.

Enjoy!

The Rest of the TV Line-Up and Saving VM

ABC's Fall Line-Up had been revealed and I am so glad to see what happens to Betty and her family next season. Ugly Betty was never on the chopping block but it's nice to see that American viewers like this quirky show that doesn't fall for the usual slapstick routine comedies like this are known for. Men on Trees also had been picked up, which is another show I follow. Pushing Daisies and Cavemen are the only 2 shows from this network that I might visit this coming fall. Private Practice is still on the "eh" part for me.

As for CBS' Line-Up, they were playing it safe. Canceling Jericho, it had kept most of its older shows like How I Met Your Mother, Ghost Whisperer and Numb3rs. The new Rob Thomas show Viva Laughlin will debut, which I might watch.

Fox on the other hand will obviously keep the American Idol alive. They also ordered another batch of Jack Bauer's series 24. But for the most part, they have a handful of shows they plan to bring to light. One of them is The Return of Jezebel James, the AS-P show that I would love to hate. However, it's got one of my favorite actress, Lauren Ambrose. Will I watch? We'll see.

Lastly, CW's Line-Up left me pissed. Pray I don't have to throw a rock at my TV screen. As I am glad that Supernatural was renewed (my Jensen heart is jumping), Dawn Ostroff and the CW company is getting some serious calls from Veronica Mars fans who didn't see the show in its line-up. According to Ask Ausiello the company has until June 15 to make a decision in regard to the show. So, if you want to keep Veronica Mars on the TV waves, please call the CW Viewer Comment Line at (818) 977-6878.

So, that's the TV line up for you. Comments? Suggestions?

Saving CW

Only a TV Network can screw things up badly. But as EW commemorates GG walking off to the sunset, and maybe the untimely demise of VM, here's a little something they came up with to keep the Logan love going.

The Peacock Sheds Old Shows, Adds on Newbies

This week, TV Networks unveil their fall line up. First in the series is the Peacock Channel, NBC, rids itself of oldie show Crossing Jordan, and cancels its expensive behind-the-scenes show Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip.

For the full line up, check the TV Guide's Upfront Central.

Let's pray that the other networks actually keep smart shows and dump stupid ones.

So Says Luke Danes

Scott Patterson finally gave an interview on what he thought about Gilmore Girls and what is ahead of him now that the show's ending.

I can say that Saw 4 probably won't be the venue that would lead him to stardom (but that's just me).

Thanks to Ausiello for the interview.

How Do You Like VM Now?

A little ditty writen by Kristen V at E!Online about how CW is giving Veronica Mars a second look, more like the royal treatment it deserves.

On other news, Supernatural and One Tree Hill are more than likely to be renewed. Their slots would be locked in on CW's May 17th press announcement.

GG's Goodbye, A Veronica Mars Shake Up and a Boo For Ugly Betty


Per request of the TV Goddess, I am following my PSA with something that has more substance: Gilmore Girls and Veronica Mars.

Ask Ausiello was teeming with questions and Gilmore love. Read 'em and weep. He posted his Q&A with Matt Czuchry which I thought was reallly nice.

As AA had hinted, Gilmore Girls' demise had given Veronica Mars LIFE. Yes, CW is now considering VM as a major player. Other shows that seem to be coming back are One Tree Hill (boo!) and Supernatural (yay!!).

Anyway, here are spoilers for the rest of VM's season before doing a title change. I like episode 19's title. I remember someone posting it on TWoP a few years back.

Episode 3.19: Weevils Wobble But They Don't Go Down
Airdate: May 22, 2007 at 8 p.m.

05/04 - Weevil is arrested for selling fake debit cards to Hearst students, but claims he is being framed because of his criminal background, and asks Veronica to clear his name. On Piz's radio show, Keith debates Vinnie (guest star Ken Marino, "Reno 911") about the upcoming election, while a tipsy Dick apologizes to Mac for the way he has treated her in the past. Veronica and Piz make up after their argument about spending their summer apart, and a mysterious sex tape of the two finds its way to the internet. Jason Dohring, Percy Daggs and Julie Gonzalo also star. Source: The CW

Episode 3.20: The Bitch Is Back (Season? finale)
Airdate: May 22, 2007

05/04 - Furious that Logan attacked Piz, Veronica tells Logan she wants nothing to do with him. Parker confronts Logan about still having feelings for Veronica, while Piz assures Veronica that he had nothing to do with the sex video. Veronica, with Weevil's help, investigates how the tape originated and discovers a person from her past is linked to The Castle and pays them a visit. With the re-election campaign nearing, Keith steps in to protect Veronica. Percy Daggs, Ryan Hansen and Tina Majorino also star. Source: The CW

Lastly, I am showing my annoyance that ABC is going to be moving Ugly Betty to SUNDAYs. With football in the fall, I bet the numbers won't be holding up as well as it is now. Reconsider, ABC!!!

My PSA for the Day

BUY NO GAS on May 15th 2007

In April 1997, there was a "gas out" conducted nationwide in protest of gas prices. Gasoline prices dropped 30 cents a gallon overnight.

On May 15th 2007, all internet users are urged to not go to their local gas station in protest of high gas prices. Gas is now over $3.00 a gallon in most places.

There are 73,000,000+ American members currently on the internet network, and the average car takes about 30 to 50 dollars to fill up.

If all users did not go to the pump on the 15th, it would take $2,292,000,000.00 (that's almost 3 BILLION) out of the oil companies' pockets for just one day, so please do not go to the gas station on May 15th and let's try to put a dent in the Middle Eastern oil industry for at least one day.

If you agree (which I can't see why you wouldn't) copy, paste and email this to all your contact list. Or cut and paste and post this on your own blog.

''Don't pump gas on May 15th"
