Mars is a feisty and fearless teen sleuth (with a PI father) who juggles an array of cases in the California seaside community of Neptune. The series is a kind of modern-day variation on Nancy Drew, but with considerable more attitude, style, mood and sophistication. First-year ratings were disappointing, but `Mars' has its loyal following among critics and viewers.
  • Veronica Mars Creator Is Ready to Party Down | Today's News: Our Take | 10/13/2008
    Veronica Mars creator Rob Thomas is will soon be whetting our TV appetites weekly with his new comedy, Party Down. The program, to be produced for Starz Media, will focus on six Hollywood wannabeens who work together at a catering company. With dreams of living the dream starting to fade, the group will serve up the laughs at their catering events — to include everything from Sweet 16s to video porn awards afterparties — in each half-hour episode. read more 2 Comments
  • With the recent news that ... | Matt Roush | 9/1/2008
    Question: With the recent news that Kristen Bell and Rob Thomas discussed a Veronica Mars movie (which would be great, but I'm not holding my breath), my question is do you think this would be a good idea creatively? I mostly agree with your opinion that the Sex and the City and X-Files movies both could have been much better and/or better off not being made. For the record, I am still a huge fan of both shows and couldn't wait to go see both movies when they came out. But those shows were able... read more

  • Exclusive: Heroes to Stage a Veronica Mars Reunion? | Today's News: Our Take | 6/10/2008
    Now here's a Heroes newcomer I can get behind — if only because it could offer Veronica Mars fans a very special reunion. Francis Capra, aka the toughie 'Ron (and Mars viewers) loved to hate, is joining the NBC hit this fall in the recurring role of Jesse.Who or what is Jesse? Not much (including his power) is being revealed, of course, but thus far I've found out two things: One, TV's former Weevil is playing evil, and two, his villainous storyline will find him crossing paths with Peter... read more
  • You gave us some scoop on Rob ... | Today's News: Our Take | 3/26/2008
    Question: You gave us some scoop on Rob Thomas' 90210 spin-off, now can we get some news on his remake of Cupid? I always thought it was a shame the original was canceled. Answer: I never actually watched the original, so I'll be viewing this reboot with virgin eyes. And I like what I'm seeing so far: a behind-the-scenes staff that looks virtually identical to the crew Thomas used on Veronica Mars. That can only mean good things. read more
  • ABC's in Love, Greenlights Rob Thomas' Cupid | Today's News: Our Take | 3/13/2008
    Criminy, run and buy a lottery ticket, Rob! On Thursday, just hours after news broke about the Veronica Mars creator possibly bringing Beverly Hills, 90210 back to life for the CW, ABC gave a green light to the pilot for Thomas' new version of Cupid, the romantic comedy he gave the tube back in the '90s. Back then, Cupid starred Jeremy Piven as a man who believed it was his mission to help Zeus boost romantically challenged mortals. The update is being pegged as a "reinvention."BecauseCupid has... read more
  • Any word from Rob Thomas yet? ... | Today's News: Our Take | 2/27/2008
    Question: Any word from Rob Thomas yet? Are we getting a Veronica Mars comic? Or something? Answer: Just heard from the Mars master and, while there's nothing new to report on the VM front, he does have several potentially kick-ass projects percolating at various stages of development. Among them: his Cupid reboot, and a single-camera comedy he cowrote with Paul Rudd titled Party Down that's generating some very good buzz. Rob is also being courted by several networks to show-run potential... read more
  • Given the problems facing ... | Matt Roush | 2/25/2008
    Question: Given the problems facing networks with pilot season in doubt, is there any chance that the Veronica Mars FBI concept could be resurrected for Fall 2008? In general, would pilots that weren't picked up be considered for slots as new shows next fall? I know that sounds strange, but I assume that the same people who made errors in picking up shows that bombed are equally capable of having made the error of passing on shows that could have worked. Or perhaps a pilot was just a year or... read more
  • I hate the strike! No Rob ... | Today's News: Our Take | 1/23/2008
    Question: I hate the strike! No Rob Thomas or Kristen Bell! Please tell me that Rob is currently writing the Veronica Mars comic book and it will be published very, very soon. Answer: First things first, Tricia. Last time I checked in with Rob, he was still investigating whether strike protocol allowed him to work on a VM comic book. The good news? Rob tells me his lawyer "has assured me that I could pursue it." The bad news? Rob also tells me he's "still not entirely sure that's what I want to... read more

    Question: Any chance that while his TV pencil is down, Rob Thomas has picked up his comic-book pencil? Please tell me Veronica Mars Issue 1 has been written. I need to feel like there is some faintly silverish, if translucent, lining to this dark, Snappleless cloud that is the WGA strike. Answer: I forwarded your Q to Rob and here's his faintly silverish-lined response: "I had a second meeting with DC comics. I heard that the [WGA] didn't want [TV writers penning TV-based] comic books... read more
  • I am going to preface my ... | Matt Roush | 11/16/2007
    Question: I am going to preface my question by trying to establish a little street cred. My favorite shows include Veronica Mars, Friday Night Lights, Battlestar Galactica, The Sopranos and The Wire. While I have enjoyed new shows like Dirty Sexy Money and Chuck, there has been one show, to my big surprise, that has become my favorite: Moonlight. I know, the pilot was horrible. I originally checked it out to see alums from Veronica Mars and Alias, but I have stayed because of Alex O'Loughlin. I... read more

    Question: Since about 2000, I've tried to find one place on the TV lineup where there are three continuous hours of television that I want to watch. I think it began with Millionaire, The West Wing and Law & Order, and then there was Gilmore Girls, Veronica Mars and Judging Amy. My favorite trifecta was last season's Ugly Betty, Grey's Anatomy and Men in Trees, which was fun while it lasted. Now, to my surprise, this year I have an all-freshman guilty-pleasure trifecta on Wednesdays:... read more
  • Any news about a Veronica ... | Today's News: Our Take | 11/7/2007
    Question: Any news about a Veronica Mars movie and/or a Season 4? Are the rumors of a meeting between Rob Thomas and CW executives true? Answer: Not according to Rob, who insists it's "completely untrue." read more
  • Exclusive: Veronica Mars' Dad + CBS = Numbers! | Today's News: Our Take | 11/5/2007
    You know what you guys need? Some good news to distract you from all this depressing strike coverage. And dammit, good news you shall get…Veronica Mars' much-missed Enrico Colantoni is returning to the tube with a major guest stint on CBS' Numbers, sources confirm to me exclusively. The role shouldn't be much of a stretch for the actor formerly known as Det. Mars: He's playing a surveillance specialist who takes a hostage when he suspects that someone has been spying on him. The episode... read more
  • The teaser trailer for ... | Today's News: Our Take | 10/31/2007
    Question: The teaser trailer for Veronica Mars Season 4 (Veronica at the FBI) has hit the Internet. Twelve minutes of new Veronica goodness. What did you think of it?Answer: It was so good it nearly brought me to tears thinking of what might have been. read more
  • All In the Family! | TV Show Recaps | 10/23/2007
    Episode Recap: "Fight or Flight"What would you do if you were faced with your greatest fear?It was around this time last season that Eden sacrificed herself. I was shocked when she fought against Sylar and managed to take her own life before he could steal her power. Tonight, Ricky sacrificed himself as well. He may not have stuck his finger into a socket on his own, but he did lie to protect Peter and his sister. In the end, he paid with his life. He literally was “toast." So, Peter and... read more
  • What kind of chance do you ... | Matt Roush | 10/8/2007
    Question: What kind of chance do you think the CW's Reaper has to survive? I really loved the pilot. It was clever and witty, and I found myself laughing out loud more than a few times. And I adore Ray Wise. Kudos to the casting director on that one. Last time I saw him, he was an expensive attorney helping Brenda out on The Closer. He was wickedly charming in that role, too. I'm just thinking about my beloved Veronica Mars, which was also clever and witty, with awesome casting, but sadly could... read more
  • Veronica Mars Boss in Love with Cupid Again | Today's News: Our Take | 10/3/2007
    ABC has pacted with Veronica Mars creator Rob Thomas to develop a new version of Cupid, Thomas' short-lived yet well-liked 1998-99 series about a man who believes he was sent to Earth by Zeus to assist romantically challenged couples. "For the last couple years, I've been talking to ABC about how to do an anthological romantic comedy à la Cupid or Love Boat," Thomas tells Variety. "We kept coming back to Cupid as the best of the group, so they said, 'Why not... do Cupid again?'"Thomas will... read more
  • Private Practice Preview: Mars' Chris Lowell Is One Manly Midwife | Today's News: Our Take | 9/24/2007
    ABC's Private Practice premieres this Wednesday. TVGuide.com is counting down to the Grey's spin-off's arrival with daily cast-member Q&As. Chris Lowell has never had a problem attracting women. First he wooed no less than Veronica Mars. Now he's got the ladies on ABC's Private Practice (premiering Wednesday at 9 pm/ET) all hot and bothered. But there's more to this 22-year-old stud muffin than meets the eye. We caught up with Kate Walsh's youngest costar to dish about becoming a sexy... read more
  • The Wednesday Battle Begins | Matt Roush | 9/19/2007
    Is it possible that this season, Wednesdays are the new Thursdays? An incredible amount of high-profile new programming — nine freshman series in all — will be introduced to the Wednesday prime-time schedule over the next few weeks, and when the dust settles, I can only hope a few of my new favorites will survive.First up are CBS, the CW and Fox, launching their newbies a week before the official season begins. The biggest headlines so far have been generated by CBS' unseen-by-critics... read more
