2 seasons in and I'm just not buying what the show is trying to sell me. His personality is yucky, his hair is unfortunate looking, his facial expressions make me uncomfortable, he spent all of season 1 being a rapey, misogynistic douchebag and even after his supposed reform & redemption his social circle remained the same & the actor isn't very talented to begin with. Veronica could've stayed single.

I have seen all of Veronica Mars once but when I rewatch episodes, it's only the first two seasons. I can do those from memory from the other room but no college year, no reboot (they make me sad lol).

Well, I decided this time I was going to keep watching. So I'm six episodes into the third season and Tim Foyle is looking FAMILIAR. I finally give in and look him up...only to discover he plays Lucky in Season 2! 🤦🏻‍♀️ I knew him from THIS.

First time watcher. I just finished season 2, and Veronica starts off the season with Duncan. I am confused by this creative decision. I can only assume the show runner felt he had to see it through, but it was very odd. I think they put some moments of intrigue between Logan and Veronica to adjust for how uninteresting Duncan and Veronica are.

Veronica is jealous when she realizes Logan was the one having sex in the room beside her and Duncan, and tries to figure out who it was through the front desk. She is jealous when she walks into Logan's room and finds him in a towel after sex with Kendall. She tells him his room reeks of bimbo, and he calls her out on the jealousy as well. She is jealous when she sees Logan flirting with Jackie in the classroom, and she mocks him and Hannah. Accusing Logan of using Hannah because she doesn't want to believe he could have genuine feelings for someone else...

I really thought she has great body language with Logan in season 1 (it get stronger in season 2). They almost always pick each other out of a room. They are always aware of each other and ready to square off. There wasn't proper build up to their kiss in season 1, but it made a lot of sense for me since I figured Logan picking on her was his physical tension towards Veronica because he was attracted to her. I was more surprised that she intitiates the kiss, but I wasn't surprised that he pulled her back in for the reasons I mentioned.

Why would they backtrack in season 2? While Veronica is irked when he has a girlfriend, and he's jealous of Duncan, they don't communicate this well. They treat each other poorly for most of the season, almost back to early season 1 dynamic, except the underlying tension and jealousy they experience sporadically. Then Veronica is loved up on Duncan...

Under her graduation gown Veronica wears a black halter-style dress. I'm looking for a picture of Veronica wearing it.

I need him to die

I’m sure this is discussed often but has Rob (or anyone) said anything about a new season? I thought it did well enough on Hulu

Him trying to justify his whatever with Madison Sinclair because she's legally an adult just made him irredeemable for me

I don't care about no fucking Weevil or Fitzpatricks or Meg or Duncan or Logan I just wanted to see more of Veronica and Wallace's friendship and to find out about what happened with the bus crash WHY IS THERE NO WALLACE!? Their wholesome friendship was like the only thing that balanced out the gritty & dark nature of the show and the chemistry that they have with each other (I'm not shipping them, ew) is unmatched by whatever Veronica & Logan had going on

Their similar sense of justice? He believed she was a good person at her core? She was friends with Lilly? He knew she would have his back, regardless and wanted to keep the tit for tat relationship going?

So many reasons, or a combination of all. What do you think?

I kinda want to get a Veronica Mars tattoo, but I'm having trouble deciding what it should look like. Does anyone have any ideas?

I hate Weevil and his bald head

This might seem like a strange question, but basically I was trying to observe the revelation with Lily’s killer as I recall that sometime after it was revealed who killed her, Logan gets into a huge brawl with someone in a bathroom.

I know that person he fought was related to her, but I kind of forgot his name as I wanted to look back at at that particular scene as lately it stuck out to me for how it showed a strained relationship between the two guys again once it was publicly revealed who killed Lily as to me personally, that was one of the wildest fight scenes to happen in the show when looking at some of the fight scenes from the first two seasons.

I found a really cool youtube video about the police depictions in VM! It's a really thoughtful and enlightening breakdown of film noir, the red scare and police procedurals in tv history :) also reaffirmed some of the reasons i loved the show!! (albeit mostly the original run).

ACAB and happy watching!!

It was the M.O. of Veronica Mars, the fact that every single building in Neptune had stained glass (Keith’s office, their livingroom, Veronica’s bedroom, Hearst, Logan’s room at the Neptune grand, etc). Really helped set the ambiance of a modern day, in-color noir show.

Why didn’t they attempt to replicate it to keep the mood in line with the original seasons? Why mess with a winning formula?

s4 felt like I was watching a Veronica Mars fanfiction with worse cinematography, worse wardrobe, worse makeup, and a weird amount of sex jokes between Veronica and Keith

I finished the first season and I LOVED it. I love Veronica & Wallace and I loved Lilly. I hate Logan and I don't find the actor to be charming at all. Is Wallace still around in the later seasons? Is there a significant drop in quality?

I notice some similar characters in both shows (of course they are differents) :

Veronica = Buffy

Wallace = Xander

Logan = Spike

Keith = Joyce

Duncan = Angel

Jackie = Cordelia

Mac = Willow

Piz = Riley

So, which characters would you like to interact with each others ?

I usually do during the Christmas season, even if I’m not doing a reach of the show. It’s a good stand alone episode and good locked room mystery.

In my late 20s and never got around to watching this when I was younger. I know she’s like in high school so my question is would it still be an enjoyable watch?

He's playing the principal on FX's show - English Teacher. I don't know if I like the show... but I love any time I see a Veronica Mars actor anywhere else!

FIVE plus years to be able to watch the show again after whatever the hell S4 was.

To this day I still can barely even stomach KB’s face, but for some reason ended up listening to my old VM movie playlist during the weekend and then to further torture myself I dug out my even older playlist with the show’s songs, and after listening to “Sway” a few too many times I had to look up the clip on YouTube and yea, long story long now I’m finally rewatching the thing and yall, it holds up! 😭😭😭😭😭 makes me that much angrier with the powers that be that destroyed it, but the nostalgia is so real right now.

For over a decade I rewatched S1-3 religiously. It was hands down my comfort show. Warts and all. Some of my most formative years were spent with Veronica Mars in the background and it’s crazy to me that they managed to ruin that for me for years.

I will not be touching S4 again, likely ever, but the plain joy it’s brought me to go back to early Neptune this week is insane 😭 I still know so much of the dialogue by heart, and quotes I still quote to this day are apparently Veronica’s and I had forgotten lol

And don’t even get me started on LoVe. The CHEMISTRY 😭 They don’t even try and it’s just the most electric thing. It’s so so so rare also. And THEY WASTED THAT. I will forever be salty, but at the very least its good to know I can rewatch the early seasons and enjoy them for what they are.

Also funny to watch some bits as a more grown up grown up —Keith Mars is not quite the exemplary parent I remembered him to be all these years. (I still worship the ground he walks on, don’t get me wrong lol, but yea……..as a parent, I’ve got my reservations now. Veronica was sixteen years old 🫠

ANYWAY, word vomit aside I just needed an outlet to my many many feelings for this show right now. I stopped trying to get folks in my life to watch it years ago, so it’s literally just me rewatching the thing and suffering alone while everyone sleeps 🤣

It's on Hulu. I watched 2 episodes tonight. I love the casting. And the snark. And the random facts.

This was the second time that I watched all of the shows and movie all the way through, but the first time I read the books.

I totally understand why people are upset about the ending to Season 4. I'm pretty mad about Logan being gone myself... But honestly, I would have loved a spin-off or a reboot... or even some more books.

Veronica grew up. Veronica went through some awful shtuff. Veronica is processing her trauma.

I would really like to see her process her trauma while investigating more... and maybe Leo makes an appearance now and then. And maybe she has to visit Penn in the pen. And Dad could come help from time to time as she travels the country searching for clues...

Oh wait - I just realized I was about to describe a Veronica Mars version of Tracker. Lol.
