Exclusive: Veronica Mars Boss Now an ABC Big Shot

ABC's buzz-challenged new drama
Big Shots just got tossed a life preserver.
Sources confirm that Rob Thomas - he of all things wonderful and
Veronica Marsy - has landed at one of my least favorite fall offerings,
Big Shots, as a consulting producer. The news comes a week after Thomas vacated his post as show-runner of the Alphabet net's midseason comedy
Miss/Guided due to creative differences.
Thomas will be in familiar company at
Big Shots: Former
Mars producers Danielle Stokdyk and Jennifer Gwartz were recently named exec producers.
Bottom line: If anything can make this series start sucking less, it's these three.
