In Veronica Mars
Guess who's going to be on Veronica Mars later this season, according to this exhaustive TWOP interview with Rob Thomas?
Seriously. Guess.
I'll give you a couple of hints. First, it's going to be awesome, because this guy is hilarious. Second, here is Rob's description of the character he plays:
"…it's going to be such a perfect role for him. He's gonna do it in a British accent, and play the singer/co-songwriter of a band that was big in the mid-'90s, and now he's out on the road solo, and sort of self-loathing."
(No, it is not the wee hobbit from Lost.)
Also, he starred in a classic teen comedy of the mid-90s, and is pretty much the only person who's done that and managed to redeem himself later.
For your final hint… um… once, in a movie, he broke up with a girl by saying "You taste like a burger. I don't like you anymore."
Is that too many hints?
Jump to the answer.
It's Paul Rudd! Hooray!

Before Jake came into the picture, Paul Rudd was my one and only. Then he got married and it became harder and harder to suspend my disbelief that one day he’d come and rescue me.
But I still believe that’s going to happen with Jake.

A Wet Hot American Summer reference. Sweet, happy day.
I believe I’m the only person in the UK (other than those upon whom I have forced it) to have even heard of the film.
Now if only State would be released on DVD so I could find out what on earth that was. (It’s ok, we had Kids in the Hall).

Brian Fantana vs. Veronica Mars? That’s a match made in awesomeness. I wonder what type of cologne he’ll use on the show. London Gentleman? Blackbeard’s Delight? Or his special cologne… Sex Panther.
