YES. I rewatched the end of S1 last night and the difference between then and now is AMAZING. Remember when Veronica and Logan were passionate? Remember when VERONICA was passionate and driven? I feel like, in order to reach a bigger audience, they have sapped all the feeling out of the show, and it was the FEELING that made it good! Because, let's be honest, the MotWs are usually only okay filler.
