Just read on Zap2it that the CW will be streaming VM's season premiere on MSN a week before the broadcast:
The network has teamed up with Microsoft to offer streaming video of three CW shows on MSN a week before their broadcast premiere, in what's becoming standard practice for the broadcast networks
With the MSN deal, all three shows will be available for viewing seven days before their on-air debut. That means "Runaway" will be up first, on Monday, Sept. 18. "Chris" will go up on MSN on Sunday, Sept. 24, and the third-season premiere of "Veronica Mars" will follow on Tuesday, Sept. 26.

Well ABC has been doing it since about March or April, and Fox is now doing it. I personally think ABC set their's up a bit better, bigger picture, nicer quality. The bandwidth should be there, as should the quality. The "Lost" episodes I watched were a bit better than iPod quality, which is impressive for streaming tv. What remains to be seen is what kind of commercial system will it have. ABC's wasn't too annoying, I haven't watched anything on Fox yet.
I'm psyched about V.M. Season 3, I can't wait to see what happens. My dad and I are going through Season 2 right now (which I've already seen but it's good to review).

IMHO, the streaming stuff isn't worth watching unless it's a case where you missed an episode and there's no other alternative to catch up (but in just about every case, there is a better alternative).

No thanks, i'll watch it when it airs, i'd rather see it at 103" rather than 16". ;)
I cannot wait for this new season, season 2 was incredible! :emoji_thumbsup:

I refuse to install any streaming video applications on my computer -- I don't want to give any money to that bastard Jake Kane!

What's Jake Kane guilty of? Nothing as it turns out, so why boycott the poor man? :D
All I know is, I simply refuse to see anymore of Aaron Echoll' movies! The bastard came off wooden most of the time anyway.

Obstruction of Justice. He kept the police and the world from finding the real killer of his daughter. He may have thought what he was doing was the right thing... but in the end he almost let a murderer go...

Also, he married Celeste... 'nuff said...

I think the story of the Kanes is over and done and they will not be coming back to Neptune.

Aaron Echolls, on the other hand -- well, he has been resurrected and will be doing the cha cha over on Dancing with the Stars.

I wonder if he will ever return since the actor's "Commander In Chief" role is obviously over?
With Duncan off the show for good, I don't see Jake coming back as a real possibility, unless it's for a one show deal.

Why did I ask that question...I just SPOILED part of season 2 for myself.
Since I can't afford to get the DVDs now, I've been watching it on a local channel here, leading up to the eventual Season 3 premiere.
At least I don't know why Duncan is off the show. And I'll leave it at that.

Duncan is sent to a planet where all of the people are 2-dimensional pieces of cardboard... he builds a house and stays there... FOREVER.

No, no, no. Duncan was recruited by a super-secret military initiative to combat demons. He was allowed in, even though his personality profile showed that he had more character than most recruits.

Your all wrong, he left because he was offered the role in A Walk to Remember 2: Jaime Lives, because Shane West bowed out and he looks just like him.
I wouldn't get too attached to Logan, either, becuase Jason Dohring is set to star in the upcoming Isn't that Special!: The Dana Carvey Story.

Wait, wait, wait...it's not the planet....MARS, is it?
Don't be knocking Logan now...he's my favorite character other than Veronica.

Sorry, Nicholas. I assumed that since this was a season 3 thread, we were all caught up on Season 2.

That's the way it works. Anything that has aired is fair game in an ongoing thread. I would assume this does *not* include the streaming version that will premiere before the premiere, but I don't know that. At any rate, it is very dangerous to read a thread like this if you are not up to speed.
