I could have sworn that her name was Veronica

We are so doing this. I love Veronica Mars, and I am not alone. Rob Thomas has been trying to get a movie made ever since the plug got pulled on the show after the third season. Now he's turned to Kickstarter to fund it. We'll see how it goes!

Update: Holy shit. The minimum goal of $2 million was raised in less than 12 hours.


Lest we forget:

Veronica Mars was also positively received by other writers. Joss Whedon, who made a guest appearance in the second season episode "Rat Saw God", said that it was the "Best. Show. Ever. Seriously, I've never gotten more wrapped up in a show I wasn't making, and maybe even more than those [...] These guys know what they're doing on a level that intimidates me. It's the Harry Potter of shows."^[64][65] Kevin Smith, who guest starred in the episode "Driver Ed," said that Veronica Mars was "hands-down, the best show on television right now, and proof that TV can be far better than cinema."^[66] Stephen King described the series as "Nancy Drew meets Philip Marlowe, and the result is pure nitro. Why is Veronica Mars so good? It bears little resemblance to life as I know it, but I can't take my eyes off the damn thing."^[67] Ed Brubaker called it "the best mystery show ever made in America."^[68]
