Crazy credits The first season finale did not include the usual opening credit sequence. The credits simply appeared over an early scene. User reviews Review. Top review. TV history in the making. Veronica Mars is a fantastic show - the greatest since Twin Peaks.
I feel very sorry for those who can't appreciate its incredible acting, suave and wry humor, amazingly detailed storytelling and hyper-complex characters. The massive amounts of angst and intensity among these high schoolers is the only unrealistic or rather, surrealistic aspect of the show, and it is forgiven because this is an superbly crafted exercise in stylized fiction and symbolism. The names, for one thing - Neptune, Tritons, Mars -, are not only planetary, but mythological.
Neptune is a cold, distant place, but reluctant gods of war inhabit it. Keith and Veronica Mars do not instigate war, but when others declare it on them, they prove supremely good at it. The show represents one of those very rare couplings of a great concept, great writing and great directing with a remarkable actress who totally "gets" the whole complex atmosphere of it, and can act the part perfectly.
Kristen Bell is an incredible actress I, for instance, became aware of this show solely because I took an interest in Bell after seeing her tiny but impressively acted part in the movie Spartan ; she has every conceivable facial expression completely nailed, and on top of that she is also fabulously gorgeous - all the more so because of her obvious intelligence.
Veronica Mars is, as far as I'm concerned, one of the two best American TV-shows I've ever seen, and my rating of it would be 9 or FAQ 2. Where can I find a song I heard on the show? Details Edit. Release date September 22, United States. United States. Hulu Official Facebook.

After her best friend Lilly Kane was murdered and her dad lost his job due to accusing Lilly's father, Jake Kane , Veronica became motivated to solve the mystery herself. Young Veronica Mars watching a sock-puppet show performed by Keith Mars. By the time Veronica was six, her mother's problems with alcohol were evident enough that Veronica would half-keep an eye on the levels in the bottles around the house, already understanding that there was a connection between them and her mother's behavior.
Veronica spent much of her childhood around the Balboa County Courthouse. Her father began as a deputy and was elected Sheriff when she was nine. Veronica and her mother would visit him on lunch breaks and, in later years, Veronica would do homework in an empty interrogation room while eavesdropping on the dispatch.
Veronica eventually became friends with Lilly Kane and, for at least three years before her death the two went without missing a single lunch together. During Veronica's teenage years, she attended school with her best friend Lilly Kane and started a relationship with Duncan Kane. Until her sophomore year at Neptune High , Veronica led a carefree life as one of the popular teens at school.
Along with Lilly's boyfriend Logan Echolls , Veronica, Lilly, and Duncan were at the forefront of the school's wealthy and popular " 09er " clique that ruled Neptune High's social scene. Though Veronica did not meet the economic status of the other 09ers, she was accepted into the clique because she was dating Duncan, Lilly was her best friend, and Veronica's father was the sheriff.
One day, in September of their Sophomore year, Duncan stopped talking to Veronica, effectively breaking up with her with no explanation. Soon after Veronica and Duncan's breakup, Lilly was found dead at the side of her family's pool. Sheriff Keith Mars accused Lilly's father, software mogul Jake Kane , of hiding something about the murder.
The citizens of Neptune were horrified and rallied behind Jake Kane, who many of them owed their wealth to, and Keith quickly found himself voted out of office through a recall election and turned into a pariah by the wealthy 09er community.
Keith's credibility took another blow when his replacement, former Deputy Sheriff Don Lamb , arrested disgruntled former Kane employee Abel Koontz , who confessed to Lilly's murder. Also turning public opinion against Keith was the release of the crime scene video from Lilly's murder, which most assumed had been leaked by Keith. The shock and loss of income destroyed the Mars family; Veronica's mother abandoned the family months after the Mars family lost their home.
Veronica further sealed her fate as an outsider when she refused to denounce her father and stand with her former friends. Logan stopped speaking to Veronica, turning his anger and hurt on her, and the rest of the 09ers followed suit. Veronica found herself banished from the exclusive 09er social scene and by all of her former friends. Veronica Mars appears in front of Inga to report what happened at Shelly Pomroy's party.
Two months after Lilly's death, Veronica went to a party hosted by Shelly Pomroy to prove to her former friends that she did not care what they said about her. At the party, Veronica is handed a drink which she later finds out was spiked with rum and GHB. The next morning, Veronica wakes up on a bed at Pomroy's house, without any recollection of the night before; to her horror, she realizes she has been raped when she finds her underwear on the floor.
Terrified, scared, and confused, Veronica cries in horror before leaving the house and reporting the crime to Sheriff Lamb, who mocks her and calls her a liar as he throws her out of his office.
Veronica later discovers that her drink laced with GHB had been meant for Veronica's longtime enemy, Madison Sinclair ; Madison had spat in her drink giving Veronica a 'trip to the dentist', and handed it to Veronica as a prank.
Veronica believes that Duncan had raped her, but discovers that Duncan had also been drugged with GHB, and reportedly from Duncan's recollection of the night that she had consented while under GHB's influence. However, shortly after her graduation from high school, Veronica puts more pieces together and discovered that Cassidy "Beaver" Casablancas had actually raped her that same night, and gave her chlamydia.
These events left Veronica changed forever; she became a cynic, filled with contempt and disgust towards her classmates and Neptune's wealthy elite. A pariah like her father, she funneled her time and energy into helping him in his own detective agency. But when a chance encounter with a new transfer student Wallace Fennel led to her gaining a new friend at the beginning of her junior year, she began to use her investigation talents and energy to help her fellow students and to go head to head with her former friends and their corrupt ways.
However, when a video of her and Piz in a compromising situation is sent around Hearst's campus, it becomes apparent that Veronica's Biblical sense of justice is still intact. Since her dad became a private investigator after being ousted from the Sheriff's Department, Veronica has had an after-school job as a secretary at Mars Investigations, her father's PI business.
Though she is often forbidden to handle certain cases, she often oversteps her boundaries and sometimes even completely solves the case before her father. On top of that, she is the small-time private investigator for Neptune High: tracking down computer crackers, digging up dirt on parents, finding out who stole the school's mascot, and the like. Logan Echolls once a close friend, had helped organize the blacklisting of Veronica from the 09er clique. The two crossed swords on several occasions before Logan sought Veronica's help in finding out if his mother, Lynn , might have faked her death when she jumped into the ocean.
Still reeling from the abandonment of her own mother shortly after Lilly's death, Veronica empathized with Logan's pain, and the two reconciled most of their differences. Toward the close of the third season of the series, Veronica successfully completes her California state examination to receive an official license as a detective in her own right. Season 4 finds Veronica and Logan living together in an apartment with their dog, Pony.
On return from a special ops mission, Logan proposes to Veronica. Although the showrunner maintains that Logan is definitely and sincerely dead, there have been some recent sitings. On a fandom page, someone claiming to be Logan Echolls asserts that he has actually been on a special ops mission. He said he is praying to his creator to bring him back soon and sends his apologies to everyone who has suffered because of his apparent death.
While Veronica initially tried to leave behind her life of sleuthing, she always found herself drawn to cases brought to her by schoolmates and friends. She also became friends with rape victim Parker Lee and Stosh Piznarski , whom she later dates after breaking up with Logan.
Veronica departed Hearst College after her first year and transferred to Stanford , where she finished her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, then progressed to Columbia Law School , where she graduated near the top of her class. Over the years, she's kept in touch with her father Keith, her friends Wallace, Mac, and others but hasn't seen or even spoken to Logan or her town of Neptune in almost 10 years.
She hasn't worked a PI case in nine years, thinking that the path had caused too much chaos in her life particularly when she ruined her dad's chance for re-election. However, when Logan's pop-star girlfriend is found murdered and Logan is seen as the prime suspect, Logan turns to his ex-girlfriend for major help. Veronica dated Duncan Kane until approximately September Both Veronica's mother Lianne Mars and Duncan's mother Celeste Kane were against their relationship, though Veronica did not find out why until much later.
Sometime prior to Lilly's death, Celeste revealed to Duncan that his father, Jake, had had an affair with Lianne and that Veronica might be his half-sister. Duncan broke up with Veronica because of this but did not explain his reasons for doing so. Keith Mars later had a paternity test which proved that he is her father, not Jake Kane. Veronica did not speak to Duncan until well into her Junior year.
A few episodes after the series starts, Duncan and Veronica start being friendly towards each other, eventually even becoming friends. That comes to an end when Veronica believes Duncan raped her and confronts him about it. The issue was eventually resolved when the fact that both parties were under the influence of GHB came to light. In the summer between the first and second seasons, Veronica and Duncan got back together on her 18th birthday.
They stayed together until roughly the middle of the second season. Unbeknownst to Duncan, his previous girlfriend Meg Manning was pregnant before they broke up. Meg was on the bus that crashed at the beginning of the season but survived comatose.
She later died of a blood clot shortly after coming out of a coma. Their daughter was born just before she died.

In the fifth episode though, Troy deceives her into helping him escape being sent to boarding school so he can run away with an old girlfriend.
Veronica realizes his plan and double-crosses him. Veronica does not meet Troy again until the second season episode " The Rapes of Graff " when they both go to visit Hearst College.
Though she is at first cold toward him, Troy insists that he's changed. He also tells her that his feelings toward her were real when they dated and apologizes for how he treated her.
