I've been thinking about Rob Thomas' consistent denials that Veronica has changed -- and we'll just set aside the fact that growth is actually good for a character for this discussion -- and something struck me the other night. He may be right for the most part.
Yes, she's much more apt to quip and rather inappropriately, but that can be said for most of the characters as the writing staff has clearly gone quip (and rather inappropriately) crazy. But changed overall? I'm thinking of the fact that while he watches the show (I'm sure), he already has in his mind how it's supposed to play out because he's written or read the script in all of its incarnations. Which leaves us with one glaring factor: The actor.
( More behind the cut. )
