Show Summary

  • Ended
In the wealthy, seaside community of Neptune, California, the rich and powerful make the rules. Unfortunately for them, there's Veronica Mars, a smart, fearless 17-year-old apprentice private investigator dedicated to solving the town's toughest mysteries. Veronica used to be one of the popular girls, but it all came crumbling down around her after her best friend, Lilly, was murdered, and her then-sheriff father, Keith, was removed from office for naming Lilly's rich father as the lead suspect. During the day, Veronica must negotiate high school like any average teenage girl. But at night, she helps with her father's struggling, new private investigator business--and what she finds may tear the town of Neptune apart at the seams.moreless

    I couldn't stop watching this show once I started, I loved it and am on my second time viewing the entire series I wish they would've given us at least a couple rap up episodes so we knew how everything ended, this show should have never been cut but then it seems all the good shows end and the crap ones remain.... like all the science fiction series out now I hate them I'd like to see more shows like this taking up time slotsmoreless
  • The one show you MUST watch before you die.

    Veronica Mars. She's intelligent, witty, somewhat rude. Extremely loyal to those she loves. Insecure, but tough. Believe it or not: This show nailed it. They made a realistic female character who was not just a sidekick, but the main character. Veronica is not perfect, but that is why we love her. I love her as much for her sometimes unjust anger outbursts and her trust issues as for her charm and intelligence.
    It's refreshing to see a show with a female star that is NOT mostly about boys. Veronica stands her own ground. She dates, she's not afraid to show it - this show deals with teenage romance in a great and realistic way. No moralistic "do not have sex" and no over-the top "sex sells" scenes. It's great to see Veronica kick ass, and the interactions (along with the plot) are the best things about this show. The interactions between Veronica and Wallace, not to mention Veronica and her father - one of the best parent/child relations ever written for tv. And, the one relationship to trumph them all: Logan and Veronica.
    Fans focus so much on that relationship, and it's very important to me that it is in no way the main plot of the series - like so many other shows with female leads. But it does become an important part. There is no way to explain that relationship. It redefined what relationships should be like. Since I found Logan, no real men can compare. At the same time, his character is also very realistic - and he's got just the look that sometimes makes you think of a grown man and sometimes a sweet little child. The relationship is truly as epic as Logan explained it in season 2.
    Veronica Mars is the one show that has it all - a wonderful story, well-written and realistic characters, great actors. You won't realize what television should be like unless you dive into this show. Do it. You will NOT regret. It sometimes asks political questions, but not in an intrusive or moralistic way. It is funny, at the same time it deals with serious matters - such as murder, rape, mental illness, child abuse and betrayal - amongst other things. No character is black or white. The twists will leave you breathless.

    Veronica Mars is a really good show. What i really love about it is the mystery and how the charters really fit well together. Also how much logan and veroica are such a good couple on screen. I mean it's beautiful how well they fit together it really is. Veronica Mars keeps you hooked you always want to know what will next. This show is good. The writing is great you know the can be serious one minute and make a joke the next. And it'll all just fit in prefectly. Even though i fell that some of the eposides in the second season wen't as good as they were in the fist one so i'm hoping to see some of that brought back in the third season. But other than that the show is really good.moreless

    Words can't express how much I admire and love this show. Seriously, every time I think about it I am at a loss for words. This was the show that was so underrate by the audience that I can't believe. Meanwhile, it developed a cult following beyond my expectations. This was the one show that will never forget in my life.

    I remember having this on DVD and putting it aside saying that I will watch it one day, but I kept putting it off. I kept hearing from other people how great it was and I finally picked it up - and damn, I was bedazzled.

    I went through the first first in two-three weeks, an episode per day, and that was the best way to watch it, to fully appreciate each episode. Rob Thomas, the main writer, did a brilliant job. The storyline during the first season kept me interested and at the edge of my seat the entire time. And I have to admit - I never suspected until the very end who was Lily's killer. To add more to the already wonderful series, the actors were amazing. Kristen Bell did amazingly in the role of Veronica, and so did her the secondary characters, but really she was the main thing. Also, I can totally see why they showed more of Amanda Seyfriend - she was great as flashback Lily.

    Thinking that there was no way season two could top season one, I went ahead to watch that one as well. And really, I don't even know what words to use to describe my fascination with the show after that season. It was even more cleverly plotted and tied together than I could imagine. I love the season-long plots with slow revelations throughout the season. After the first two seasons, I knew I would always think of this show as one of the best I have ever seen.

    Season three introduced a different format, but it was just as great as the first two. Maybe it wasn't as amazing as the first two, but it was still superb and it never made my doubt my love for this show (does this sound strange in any way?). And then the show was canceled. I will truly never forgive the CW for canceling this show. Holding onto such cr*p as those teen shows and canceling this one? Really, I lost all respect I ever had for this network.moreless
