Testing, testing, 123

This is a test, only a test. Yeah, that's what they told Bikini Atoll.

Veronica Mars S01E11

This is the Mac was switched at birth episode.

Non-random things that made me happy about this episode:

A. Spinal Tap reference. You can’t go wrong.
B. “So this is where the bourgie folks live?” I like this line just because it reminds me of Pauline (bourgie).
C. In the library at Madison’s house I saw Will and Ariel Durant’s history of Western Civilization, a formative text in my life.
D. I like that Mac returned. I think she’s a good character. Here she provides the foil for Veronica: both face not being with their real parents. And the lesson? Whether we like our family or are even related to them, we can’t choose them.
E. Weevil’s performance complaining at the police station is amazing. Absolutely amazing. He really is the second best male character (after Mr. Mars that is).

I like Mac, too. I thought the birth mom's angst over realizing who Mac really is was interesting and quite wrenching.

And Weevil's friendship with Veronica is one of the best things about season one, for sure.
