Veronica Mars

Well, duh. I just thought it'd be so cool if out of all the jerks, there was at least one decent human in-charge of this effin' network.

 

[TwilightPro101]

One managed to get the show carried over through to the CW and one didn't manage to keep it in place.

It's basically getting the boot, so the CW can expand its base into whatever it wants to be now.

 

[Socrates]

Whatever. I'm over it now. Or at least I will be once season 3 is released on DVD.

 

[TwilightPro101]

That's the only godsend I'm waiting for as well.

I think Kristen is already working on something else at the moment. Just can't recall.

Yeah the Cw wants to extend there network into pure crap.

My girlfriend and I feel the same way about it, but it's the politics of TV. After the past record with the WB ala Angel and Buffy, I can't say I'm a fan of their tactics.

Just be grateful we're not getting MACGUYVER Jr.

To be fare, Dawn Ostroff is the ONLY reason VMars got a third season. She loved the show, and isnt your typical net exe villain...

we can still be pissed though!

Fair enough...

Gossip Girl? Yeah, I'm most likely going to watch it. At least just to listen to Kristen narrate; She's got such a nice voice.

Yeah i know.

I was surprised Supernatural made it for a third season. Thats the only reaon i'm gonna watch the CW that and Smallville.

 

[Mattchew]

what about 'search for the next next pussycat doll'

 

[TwilightPro101]

Gossip Girl, I'm going to watch just for Kristen.

As for the CW, I'm with you J Alba's Lover.

I'm thanking god Supernatural made it through.

 

[Mattchew]

ummm. i saw a clip with Kristen's voice over for 'Gossip Girl' and the crap they had her saying was PAINFUL!

im gonna TRY to watch for her, because I love her, but... im not sure if I have the will power.

maybe it will be wonderfully cheesy like degrassi

 

[TwilightPro101]

Got me on that one, but at least she's still on the CW in some form.

 

[Mattchew]

true true

 

[Abaddon]

I enjoy watching the reruns.

 

[amazingfantasy15]

C'mon everyone, farmers need wives and without the CW how are they gonna find them?

 

[liquid6908]

Hey guys... i know this is a long shot but if you can spare a few minutes, visit some of these sites trying to save VM and write a letter or send a postcard or something...

www.saveveronicamars.tv
barsformars.com

It just cant end this way! It cant! Im still holding on to a shred of hope...

 

[amazingfantasy15]

Okay, with the success of the Save Jericho campaign, I think we need to start sending peanuts to CW. If it worked for Jericho it might work for Veronica Mars. That or broken pitchforks in protest to Farmer needs a Wife.

 

[Abaddon]

we should've started when it was unclear whether or not it'd be renewed.

Spread the Buzz
It's time to take action!

Here's what you can do:

1. Send a letter. As E! Online's Kristin suggested in her latest article, we need to write to Dawn Ostroff. Tell her how much you like Veronica Mars and how much you want it to come back as a midseason replacement.

2. Donte to the Hollywood Reporter ad fund As mention on the home page, we're gathering funds to tell the CW in no uncertain terms that if they do not bring Veronica Mars back as a midseason replacement, that we will boycott their network. We need to collect the money, design and place our order for this ad all within the next two weeks! To accomplish this, we need your help, so please donate whatever you can, even if it's only $5.

3. Call The CW's Viewer Comment Line. You can call The CW's Viewer Comment Line at (818) 977-6878 and leave a comment about how much you love Veronica Mars, how disappointed you are that it is not on the Fall schedule and that you'd like to see the show on as a midseason replacement if they hope to keep you as a viewer.

3. Add a comment. Go to Kristin's article and scroll down until you reach the comment area. Click the + on the second blue line to the right of where the line says "Add Your Comments". Register for the site (if you haven't already — it's free), and add a comment. Kristin will forward these comments to The CW.

4. Send an email. Email the CW at [email protected]. Yes, it is important to send both emails and and snail-mail letters. Every little bit helps!

5. Get involved. Take part in some of the other campaigns mentioned on this site:

* Donate money to the "Veronica Mars Hollywood Reporter Ad" campaign (details above and on home page)
*
* Write letters or postcards to Dawn Ostroff at The CW.
*
* Email The CW and ask them to keep the show on the air.
*
* Check out the Offical Save Veronica Mars Thread at E! Online.
*
* Check out Television Without Pity's Eternal Vigilance thread (see link below) to see what they're doing.
*
* Sign the petition (if you haven't already.)
*

For any new viewers that you manage to recruit, if they want to know more about the show, or what happened in a particular epsiode, tell them that Mars Investigations.net is a great site to visit.

This site was designed to be a primer for new viewers to help them understand the show's complex mythology. Here, they will find detailed character descriptions, clues relevant to each of the show's season-long mysteries and detailed (as well as not-so-detailed) episode recaps. Even Rob Thomas, the creator and executive producer of Veronica Mars, has this site for new viewers linked to his site, so if it gets his stamp of approval, you know it must be good!
Other Campaigns

Several other sites now have their own campaigns to save this show wonderful show:

* Television Without Pity (aka TWoP) - Their "Embrace Vigilance" thread discusses a variety of new ideas for keeping the show alive, including their current flier campaign on college campuses to raise awareness and increase viewership.
*
* Cloud Watchers - Did you hear about the plane that flew over The CW building with a banner that read "Renew Veronica Mars"? This incredible community was responsible for that! Now they're taking on a new project to blanket the Top 20 Nielsen Markets with Veronica Mars flyers in time for the show's return to air on May 1st, but they need your help.
*
* Mission: Veronica Mars - These folks are trying to rent out a movie theater in San Francisco to promote the show by playing various episodes. However, they need help with spreading the word through fliers. Click the above link and be sure to check their blog to see how you can help.
*
* Project: Save Veronica Mars & One Tree Hill - A site dedicated to raising money for advertisements to raise awareness about the show in order to save it.

Breaking: Veronica Mars Creator Is Officially Miss/Guided!

Categories: veronica mars
Unless you've been living under a rock recently, you've probably heard that Veronica Mars—at least in its TV version—is officially dead. The CW has decided not to pick it up for a fourth season.

But I have a shining, bedazzly silver lining for you fans: Miss Mars' story may live on as a comic book or as a feature film (we'll get to that). And, breaking news! VM mastermind Rob Thomas has just confirmed to me exclusively that he's stepping in as executive producer of the new comedy Miss/Guided, so we'll still get to see his work on the small screen this coming TV season. Hurrah!

"I'm the new show runner on Miss/Guided, the Judy Greer half-hour midseason for ABC," Rob tells me. "Judy plays a high school counselor who has returned to the high school she attended as a student. It was created by a talented first-year Office writer named Caroline Williams."

As I mentioned in my liveblog from ABC's upfront presentation in New York, Miss/Guided looks to be adorable, witty and funny, and I can only imagine that with Thomas on board, it will become an instant fave among us VM fans.

As for Veronica Mars, Thomas tells me: "I think the best odds for seeing the continuation of the Veronica Mars story is in comic-book form. I had a meeting with DC Comics last week. They want to do the series. I want to do the series. It's just a matter of making a deal and figuring out when I have the time to write it. And perhaps a feature screenplay will follow."

The screenplay and comic book sound cool, but the fact that Rob Thomas has gone off to some girly sitcom is ridiculous. His talent should be directed towards something good.

I think a comic would be cool, and if DC is behind it... Oh God, that would be fantastic.
