icemink: (What the Hell? vampkiss)

I just finished watching tonight's Veronica Mars, and I have to say one tiny thing bothered me (don't worry, it has nothing to do with plot, so no spoilers). At one point they showed a copy of "The Tell Tale Heart" which was like 500 pages long. It looked like they'd redecorated the Vampyr book from Buffy. "The Tell Tale Heart" is a short story. I remember a teacher once reading the whole thing to a class in one period for Halloween. It's not a novel. And the weird thing is that there was no point in having the title if you don't know the story, cause you wouldn't understand what they were talking about.

Okay it just really bugged me. Someone expected the audience to know the story, but not be smart enough to figure it out if the book said something like "The Collected Stories of Edgar Allen Poe". This just really bugs me, I don't know why.
