I am – Hercules!!
Does tonight bring our first glimpse of The CW’s first Tuesday-night line-up? A new ”Gilmore Girls” at 8 p.m. followed by a new ”Veronica Mars” at 9 p.m.?
“Mars” now has to deal with “House,” “The Unit,” “Scrubs,” “Teachers,” “Sons and Daughters” and “Pepper Dennis” – instead of “Lost” and “American Idol.” An excellent swap from where I sit.
After tonight’s episode, “I Am God,” only four season-two episodes remain: “Nevermind the Buttocks” (2.19), “See You Next Tuesday” (2.20), “Manning the Ship” (2.21) and “Not Pictured” (2.22). Coaxial News’ own girl detective, “Victoria Barsoom,” has spoilers for tonight and the next two episodes beyond (BEWARE!! Uninvisotexted spoilage abounds):
What’s up with your favorite Veronica Mars characters over the next few episodes?
Logan: Takes a trip down memory lane with Veronica and flashes back to their Summer of Love. Holds a prom in his hotel suite when the HS prom is cancelled. Invites Veronica and ends up inviting more than he asked for. Has a long talk with Veronica about the future of their relationship.
Wallace: Pursues Jackie and finally snags her on prom night.
Keith: Investigates Kendall Casablancas. Finds himself on the wrong end of a gun.
