I just got around to watching this and on the whole I found it great but also sad and depressing for everyone.

Somehow Piz especially. Oh well, at least Wallace and Mac have their lives together.

I have a digital copy of the movie on Flixter, in case anyone wants it.

Bumping this thread because if anyone else was like me and didn't have Season 3 because for whatever reason it was absurdly expensive, it's down to $12 right now

Man I hope no one ordered this based on my link. Apparently this version is some cheap knockoff version which is just a clamshell and a bunch of DVDs stacked in the middle. Grr.

Well, I totally forgot this was a thing. I finally got around to watching and it was very cathartic. Seeing all these old faces, the interactions between characters I once loved, the dialogue, seeing it all happen one more time, was very nice. I was never satisfied with the ending of the T.V show, but this I like.

If any of you are Canadian and haven't got this show on DVD yet, seasons 1-3 are $9.99 each right now on Amazon Canada. If you buy all three of them then it's free shipping!

You shared it with a dick.

I've been holding out for Blu-ray, figuring that with the movie they'd re-release the series as a package. But I'll probably cave and buy them on DVD anyway.

They released some more information about that Ryan Hansen web series, apparently most of the actors will make appearances. It is going to be called Play It Again, Dick : http://www.buzzfeed.com/jarettwieselman/the-whole-veronica-mars-gang-is-coming-back-for-a-new-webser

Fear is the glue that holds society together. It's what makes people suppress their worst impulses. Fear is power.

And at the end of fear, oblivion.



Welp. Tonally like Party Down is positive. From the little videos and interviews Hansen's given, he seems like a pretty cool guy, so I wonder if he'll play himself straight or more as a character (probably as a goofball Andy Dwyer-type).

You have to be a combination of cynical and manic depressive to enjoy Party Down, I think it's a show that's entirely too honest for its own good. It spits right in the face of positivity, with the message that sometimes talent gets you nowhere, and sometimes you can just ride your looks to success, but most of the time we're all just a bunch of working stiff losers. And yet in between all that you have moments of greatness and very deep connections with other people. Like Casey and the former comedian mom.

I loving love Party Down, bought the DVDs and binge-watch it annually.

Since this thread has been brought briefly back to life I just want to mention that I'm 80% done with the audiobook of Thousand Dollar Tan Line, and Kristen Bell reading it definitely makes it. I hope she does further ones.

This is super loving accurate. It's gallows humor, but with heart. If they Kickstarted another season I'd throw money at it in a heartbeat.

That's a shame, I thought it was a fantastic show. It's okay, there are a lot of TVIV sweethearts that I can't get into either.

Looks fun. I am always up for more Dick.

Also it's funny that he's not using something like Dick: Private Dick as the show title.

It makes sense since 'private' is something that has never described Dick at any point in his existence.

I liked it! It was cute. It's almost a cringe-show, but everyone's so bubbly and likable that it stays positive and light.

I get the sense that the series is going to end up being a lot more amusing for TV nerds, but I thought it was funny :3: I'm still hoping that Enrico Colantoni is going to be reprising his role from the Veronica Mars Kickstarter video.
