so, i'm done with the series and i'm sad. the third one was even good, although not as good.
the set up is that veronica mars lives in neptune CA, which is richie rich. she was a normal, popular girl who wasn't rich but her dad was the sheriff, but then her best friend is murdered and her dad gets booted out for accusing the girls dad, who is also veronica's boyfriend's dad and a super rich guy. the series starts with veronica as a junior, an outcast and working for her dad, the private eye.
there's so much great stuff with humor and gays and rape and being a teenager. part of what i like about the whole show is that veronica acts like a teenager. she's impulsive and lies, sometimes for no reason, and gets in trouble.
what i don't like is that she's an outcast because she was forced out and at one point she's dreaming about her life if her friend hadn't been murdered and she's all dumb and popular. i don't like that she'd be dumb, but it does reinforce my belief that pretty girls don't have to develop their personalities and although veronica's still pretty, she's not treated as a pretty girl, so she has to develop other talents.
the show was created by rob thomas and he also created party down and pretty much everyone from party down is in veronica mars at least once. i really love that, because they're my tv friends. and, they're funny.
it's a soap opera, but witty and outrageous with some great insight into relationships, men and rich people.
