Veronica Mars was an immediate obsession for me ... I think because of all the things you said about Buffy. I can actually respect her, relate to her, in a way that Buffy didn't immediately allow. I always found it hard writing for Buffy - she just didn't appeal to me. I understood her in some sort of dark, unhealthy part of my mind, but I honestly didn't want to know her.
Logan is the reason I watch VM as well. Although VM herself is engaging, and real to me, Logan is the most entertaining character. The one with the most shit to deal with. Although Veronica maintains that she is the most "wronged" with regards to her social standing, I think she has no idea what's coming up for Logan next.
It's kind of sad I watch the self-titled shows for characters that are not mentioned in said-titled shows, but I think RT knows what he's doing. Joss left a bad taste in my mouth after the final season. But I've learned RT has a tendency to give the fans what "they need", in a way that actually turns out to be what "they want" at the same time.
Give it another season. After all, I'm of the firm opinion that although Buffy was "good" first season, it didn't really bloom until 2nd. :)
