Veronica Mars: Do You Feel for Logan?
Oh, poor Logan. Normally we’re a bit torn about him – sure, he’s cute and funny, but he can also be a huge ass – but for this episode, we were totally behind him. How horrible is it to (1) find out you’ve got an illegitimate half brother, and (2) get conned by an unscrupulous reporter into spilling all the family dirt? Plus, he had to survive that ever-so-tense dinner with Veronica and Keith, and he did it in style. (We thought Veronica was going to have a seizure, though.)
We did suffer a fair amount of Logan whiplash this episode – you did know that the reporter (Matt Czuchry) plays a tortured rich-guy boyfriend named Logan on Gilmore Girls, right? Somebody on this network must really like the name. Is it a Wolverine shout-out? A tribute to Boston’s airport? A callback to the classic flick Logan’s Run? We may never know.
Speaking of crossovers – how cool was it that Enrico Colantoni’s old Just Shoot Me castmate Laura San Giacomo played Keith Mars’ client and potential love interest? Nice bit of interaction between the two of them.
Finally, there’s Parker. Yes, she’s been through a horrible, traumatic experience. But why does she seem to think it’s all Veronica’s fault? There was no way Veronica could have known what was going on in that room. Now she’s just trying to find the real culprit – why does Parker seem to take that as a deliberate affront? Weird.
So what did you think of the episode? Have we finally spotted the rapist, or is the guy in the picture someone else entirely? Do you feel for Logan, or do you think he’s still just a spoiled rich boy?

Loved how we had cross-over actors... Logan from Gilmore Girls, guest spotted on Veronica Mars. Do more of that, have one star from a show appear on other!! Example: Chad M. Murray reappearing on Gilmore Girls as Tristan? That will surely boost the number in ratings

I love Logan and that was horrible what happened to him.
Laura San Giacomo will return to the show and i think that there will definitly be a relationship with her and enrico. Veronica will kind of be mad at her dad for being so intimate with a married woman

I figured that since Matt Czuchry was only scheduled for one show that it might turn out that he isn't Logan's brother. I had hoped that I was wrong though. I also have to say that I loved Laura San Giacomo reuniting with Enrico Colantoni. I wasn't sure if their chemistry from "Just Shoot Me" would carry over to another show, but am glad that it did. Is she going to return to the show? I hope that she does.

I did feel sorry for Logan. But I didn't care for what they did with Matt Czuchry. Always great to see Matt, that's why I watched, but they should have left him as Logan's brother instead of tricking the fans that tuned in for this show.
