Veronica Mars, Leaving Me Hanging
Posted by junger - 03/24/08 at 10:03:02 am
Debbie and I finished the third and final season of Veronica Mars last night and SPOILER ALERT we were obviously disappointed.
We've watched all three seasons over the past few months (thanks, writer's strike) and really enjoyed it. But the haphazard ending, thanks to its cancellation left us unfulfilled.
When I tell people about the show, I compare it to a high-school version of Scooby-Doo (minus the talking dog). Veronica, the way overachieving high schooler, solves mysteries as a private investigator, and seems to run in to scandal and murder wherever she goes.
The show wasn't that realistic (seriously, can one person have so much death in their life and still crack jokes on a regular basis?), but it was well-written, and it spoke to a generation. The characters were mostly well-developed, and the plotlines were engaging.
It's too bad that the series finale left so much unanswered — and didn't get Veronica and Logan back together — but at least we get more Kristen Bell in Heroes.
If you have some time and enjoy serialized, California shows (24, anyone?), give Veronica Mars a chance.
