I dont have a elgato TV on my Mac so other than the Gym to catch up on Big Brother, I dont see much TV. I did see a funeral on Veronica Mars last Friday : In which the rich, sex addicted Hollywood director (harry hamlins character) is supposed to be mourning his wife. His ICM agent is at the funeral trying to close a deal for the studio; Son has moment of clarity, and knows she has merely escaped, hence the next episode he wants to hire Veronica et dadee. It's a very kewl cruisy show. Fluff-meta, digg it.

InTheseTimes.com has some good detail around the show I didnt know : "Its setting, the fictional southern California town of Neptune, is a prophetic vision of the Two Americas we are in the process of becoming—a “town without a middle class,” as Veronica calls it in the pilot episode’s opening moments, where “your parents are either millionaires or your parents work for millionaires.”
