TOP FIVE Veronica Mars Moments

We used to do these top fives all the time, way back when we still had Joss Whedon shows airing at regular intervals, back then when we used to sneak a peek at AICN or the spoilerslayer to find out whether the rat would be turned back into Amy (she did) or whether Miss Kitty would reappear (she didn't). Sometimes I feel tempted to find out what's in store for us, but luckily Hercules no longer lists spoilers for VM. I can watch the epis unspoiled. *sigh*

Anyway, enough with the nostalgia. Give me your top five Veronica Mars moments. Which scenes made you sniffle, which made you grin, gasp or squee? Come on, tell me. You'll find my selection

5th place: Preseident Evil (3.05) - The Cliff & Keith scene, where Keith is almost arrested. I love Cliff, so I had to list at least one of his scenes in this top five. This one is extra hilarious.

4th place: One Angry Veronica (2.10) - I love the whole Twelve Angry Men jury duty plot, all of it, even though it's been done to death. It's a thing.

3rd place: My Mother, the Fiend (2.09) - Weevil and Logan decide to work together to find out who killed Felix. They also fight. Brilliant!

2nd place: Nobody Puts Baby in a Corner (2.07) - Sheriff Lamb arrests Duncan and Veronica for breaking and entering into the Manning household but lets them go. - Didn't see that one coming. The music in that sequence was awesome too.

1st place: One Angry Veronica (2.10) - Logan watches the Aaron-Lily sex tapes then destroys them - to beautiful music (Edge of the Ocean by Ivy). Sob stuff. And Logan just looks awww, when he's all teared up. Plus I love his exchange with Keith just afterwards.

I should have listed more moments from S1, there are so many awesome moments, like the season finale, the pilot with it's fabulous voice-over, which had me hooked within seconds, and all those fantastic father-daughter moments, and those wonderful Keith moments, and evil Aaron, and... Oh well, why don't you list your favourite moments? Lets wax nostalgic. Come on!

Wow this is hard. It's just that I don't talk about VM ad nauseum like I used to with Buffy - so my favorite scenes tend to evaporate after I've watched. I'll think about this and get back to you cause I'm sure there are SOOOO many.

Oh, my icon reminded me: one of my favorite moments has to be the whole "Shocker" exchange between Veronica and Weevil. This one had me peeing my pants for days...

Weevil: I didn't exactly tell you the whole truth about how I handled the Curly situation.
Veronica: Shocker. [gestures]
Weevil: I think that's scout's honor. You fingers are -
Veronica: Not important. Moving on.

Yeah, that was a good moment.
Also loved how Weevil was counting on curiosity getting the better of Veronica. That moment was priceless.
I adore Weevil. I loved his dorky moment when he showed his aptitude for catching bad guys. You know, I could totally live with it, if Veronica, Mac, Weevil and Logan would clean up the campus together. :-D

Oh god, how could I forget your #1!!! Yes, you're absolutely right, that is a pivotal moment. So good. Thank you for reminding me. See, this is why we do these top five thingies.

Thank you for playing.
