Whilst the story, in of itself, was a strong one- a bus full of students being sabotaged into plummeting off of a cliff face, killing scores- the execution suffered somewhat from a lack of emotional attachment to Veronica herself. Couple that with the honeymoon period of the show being over and all our characters firmly established and what you have is a 22 episode second season that struggled, at times, to replicate the diversity of its predecessor. That said, season 2 most definitely had its share of strong moments, episodes and storylines, the best of which was the further progression of the relationship between Veronica and Logan. Following a harsh break-up the two had in the summer between the first and second seasons, the majority of the second season was pitched with the pair of them skirting around the issue, instead preferring to hide behind the wisecracking jokes and sarcastic remarks that had been their previous status quo. Whilst both embarked upon new (or in Veronica's case, old) relationships to attempt to move on, there every scene was filled with a bubbling set of questions that refused to go unanswered. Come one of the show's most famous scenes, where a season and many months worth of tension reaches its peak, where Logan confesses his love to Veronica and his anxiety about their future, during the replacement, end of high school prom. Veronica, taken aback by his honesty and heartfelt emotion, rushes away, leaving a drunk and broken Logan left holding the bag. For two characters defined by their evasive dialogue, the juxtaposition of this scene really hits home. What's even more harrowing is the following morning, when Veronica returns to- presumably- get back together, having straightened her head out, only to find Logan, in his despair had slept with femme fatale Kendall Casablancas, played to perfection by Charisma Carpenter. Rob Thomas and crew did everything in their power to keep Logan and Veronica apart, to keep the fans wanting more. Despite many reconciliations and breakdowns, having not seen the film, it's still something left unresolved even to this day.
