This is a surprisingly good show. It manages to have 'a little' violence, sex, and language but not enough to be too offensive to watch with my kid, and it's still intelligent enough to be interesting, humorous and kind of addicting to an adult. A modern Nancy Drew, is Veronica Mars. I wish seasons 1 and 2 were here; I wish anything more were here and I'd get that as well. I'm really not even much of a whodunit kind of fan to be honest, I prefer science fiction but amazon ran out of decent TV to sell me in that genre so I bought VM season 3 just for kicks. I'm glad I did.

Don't believe the cheesy promo and other ads for this show, Veronica Mars isn't your typical teen drama, in fact it is nothing like your typical teen drama with plenty of action, suspense, humor, and yes, some romance for all the ladies out there. Plus unlike other teen drama that just pluck actor from an Abercrombie catalogue, this show has actors that can actually act so you won't start laughing whenever one of them tries to emote like on other shows. So give Veronica Mars a try, I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

Veronica Mars is my favorite show currently on television. Although the show has been focusing more on Veronica's romantic relationship than in the past, the mystery aspect is still front and center each episode. The writers incorporate smart dialoge and clever plot twists to create a genuinely funny and suspenseful show. The acting for the most part is top notch, and Kristen Bell, who plays Veronica, is amazing. I especially enjoyed Episode 9, Spit and Eggs, in which Veronica figures out who has raped her fried Parker and at least two other women on her campus.

You can never go wrong with Veronica Mars. The best series I never watched while it was on TV. Didn't realize until it was cancelled that it was so much more than a teen movie. Unbox is great but I'd spend a few more bucks and buy the DVD if you can. You get some bonus material including the gags. I think its worth it for something you will watch over and over. Also Seasons 1 and 2 are very reasonable on DVD but not available on Unbox.
