I love 'Veronica Mars'! It is my favorite of the new shows this season. And now you say Alyson Hannigan is going to be on it? Woo! And, might I add, hoo!

What channel/time/day is this 'Veronica Mars' on? Also for the person who started this thread...LOST has some Buffy/Angel writers/actors.

Very disappointed in Point Pleasant. Off my viewing list. Like Lost and Rescue Me. I've also started watching Medium on Monday night at 9:00 p.m. EST.

Tuesdays, 9pm, UPN. This puts it in direct competition with another show I enjoy, Fox's 'House'. Sigh.

EVERYONE who watches 'Numb3rs' started watching it last week. That's when it debuted. Only 2 episodes have aired so far.

I only saw a few minutes of Numb3rs but I liked it.
Keep shiny!

I didn't see the first two episodes of PP - after Herc's review on aintitcool, I had absolutely no desire to watch. So when I was visiting my friend and he flipped it on, I was not excited at all. And while I don't think they've corrected the flaws that Herc picked apart, I see a lot of potential in the show.
Just do something about the acting.

Yeah, Kaylee4Simon, it's nice to see Rob Morrow get a series again. He seems to have matured a bit since 'Northern Exposure'. I like seeing Peter MacNichol and Sabrina Lloyd, too.

The acting is really bad on the show. So much so, I just can't get into it. I like the idea of the story it just doesn't work.

Tuesday 9pm is probably the most jammed packed hour this season with Veronica Mars, House, The Amazing Race, and Scrubs. I love Scrubs, but this year I'm taping that show so I can watch Veronica Mars.
After Angel was cancel I was depressed at the prospect of a Whedonless TV landscape. Much to my delight Rob Thomas's Veronica Mars has been able to fill that void. For you Cupid fans, yes this is the same Rob Thomas who created Cupid. I haven't been this excited awaiting the next new episode and nervous about low ratings since Firefly aired.
Veronica Mars's combination of a brilliant lead actress who can make you laugh and break your heart, witty dialogue, solid continuity, a backstory that make sense, deep and layered characters, and a every widening, yet understandable mystery has made this my favorite show of the season. Even though this is a noir teen detective show, I think it is fair to say that this show has out-Buffyed Marti Noxon's disappointing Point Pleasant. You have to admire a show where the writers care so much about the little details that they have debates about whether to use the grammatically correct "Veronica Mars is smarter than I" or the more idiomatic "Veronica Mars is smarter than me."
If you're familiar with TWoP, Couch Baron who did the Buffy recaps, also does the recaps for Veronica Mars. He has given 8 out of the 12 episodes a grade of A- or better, which in his own words is "frankly unbelievable."
Alyson was originally signed on to do only the Feb 22 episode. They are still working out the details, but the writers, cast and Alyson have made it clear that they want her to return to the show.
