She Kicks Ass & You'll Like It: Nicola Griffith's Always
So, the official word is out that I nominated Nicola Griffith's Always for the summer round of the LitBlog Co-Op, and I'm going to do my best to try and convince you to read it NOW so you can hop over and participate in the discussion later on. I've only been a nominator once before (I chose Jeff Ford's The Girl in the Glass), and making a choice wasn't tough at all that time either. This time around, I'd planned on choosing Ysabeau's Flora Segunda, but then it was getting all sorts of love from the New York Times and,...

Well, for all the hype about how it wouldn't seem like a final episode, it would have been completely overblown if it wasn't with all the goodbying and such. Overall, I was happy, though Babette was written a little more high strung than usual, which is saying something... And I wanted the town minstrel to be in it.

I hope it was good; I dropped out of the Gilmore Girls earlier in the season, when they pulled that Lorelei marries Christopher/dumps Christopher bit. Tho' I heard the show improved, I couldn't bear to return. It's very sad when a show you love lurches on like a Zombie, when it should just lie down peacefully in its grave. Good night sweet princesses! May flocks of Paul Ankas sing thee to thy rest!

That was a very good episode of Veronica Mars. Nice balancing of the detective and relationship plots, which has been a serious stumbling block for the show this season, and the mystery of the week played to the show's strengths and touched on one of its core themes - that neither complete innocence nor complete cynicism are effective life strategies.
I've been waiting for Dick's breakdown all season, and what this episode delivered was fantastic, even more so because I don't think Dick is any less of an asshole now that I know that he does think about his brother and does realize what a great part he played in driving him to murder and suicide.

Did you see this?

After the last episode of VM, which I thought was pretty good myself, it's disappointing that the series has been canceled.

I thought this one was solid, too, which sucks seeing as it's canceled.
This may be a stupid question, but will they air the remaining episodes?
