Trivia:

The final few episodes of Veronica's Closet never aired in the US, but they did tie up the series: Veronica and Perry got together and became a couple. Olive's internet company was bought out and she became a millionaire. She bought out June's half of the company to co-own it with Veronica. It turns out June was not as stupid a she made out and she actually pushed Alec into the volcano to get her hands on Veronica's Closet. Josh goes to the country with Brian to watch the autumn leaves fall. Leo, having pretended to be Josh to appease Brian's parents when they met his boyfriend, is so enamored by the sound of being in the country during autumn decides to go by bus.

Quotes:

Perry: By Police Academy 5 I'd stopped worrying if they'd make it as police officers and just sat back to enjoy the fun.

Super-Funny Show!

I have to disagree with everyone who thinks that this show was from the pits of hell. This show was so funny I found myself literally on the floor laughing.

Maybe the show was an oversexed comedy, but what do you expect from a sitcom based loosely on Victoria's Secret? I mean, when you get Kirstie Alley & Kathy Najimy together as a comedy duo, you know it has to be funny is SOME aspect! And, as crude as it may sound, toilet humor really seemed to fit with this show. It was subtle but so obvious making it a winning comedy. My favorite episode is 'Veronica's Perfect Man' in which Ronnie's date is constantly farting and embarrassing her and her co-workers.

If you think this show sucks then go back to watching Nova because you aren't ready for prime time!
