VERONICA MARS
On March 13, 2013, cast members
Kristen Bell, Jason Dohring, Enrico Colantoni, and Ryan Hansen, and showrunner
Rob Thomas all appeared in a video posted to the crowd-sourcing website
Kickstarter that challenged fans of the TV show (which had been canceled in
2007) to pledge $2 Million to fund (or help fund) a feature film project based
on the show. The project broke a Kickstarter record when it made more than $1.3
million in about six hours; the entire amount was raised and surpassed in under
eleven hours.
Both actresses Alyson Hannigan and Charisma Carpenter were
stars on the also iconic TV series Buffy the Vampire
Slayer (1997). "Buffy" creator Joss Whedon, a declared
fan of "Veronica Mars," also had a cameo in an episode.
The sticker of the black circle
with the bananas in the middle on Veronica's locker is the album cover of The Dandy Warhols, the
album the feature's the theme song 'We Used to Be Friends'.
The network told Rob Thomas in advance that
season 3 was probably going to be the last of the show, so he could have the
opportunity to wrap up the series. Thomas got so angry at them that wrote the
season finale as an anti-finale. In retrospect, he has said he doesn't regret
it because they could not have made the movie if the show had had a proper
ending.
Entertainment Weekly included
Veronica Mars in its "25 Greatest Cult TV Shows Ever" list at
position #13 in the September 29, 2009.
