Veronica Mars - The Complete Second Season

I bought the first season on sale long ago, only cause it was a great price...I always like Cold Case, Without a Trace kind of shows, as well as comedy and a bit of drama...I regreted buying VERONICA MARS cause I thought it was just another teens boring drama...one day I play it cause I didnt have anything else to watch...OMG!!! I watched the whole first season at once, I couldnt stop, every episode is so good, and the end is so unexpected and thrilling...I couldnt wait get my second and third season on the mail, although, I thought the might not been able to match such a great first season...I WAS WRONG AGAIN!!! It just got better...I don't understand why they stopped after the third season, maybe because they gave it all on these 3 seasons...I have recomend Veronica Mars to everybody i know, from teens to grand parents, very enjoyable.

My 13 year old daughter and I have watched this season together. It has been entertaining and it has helped us discuss some difficult topics. I think that this is a a great series for parents and young teens to watch together.

What more is there to say? I'm sure others will review this and give the pertinent information. I'll just say that it's a lot of fun, but nothing can live up to the first season.

Who would expect such a great series out of UPN? Great dialogue: "Annoy little blond one, annoy like the wind" still being my favorite. And though it's a little older in themes, Veronica Mars never forgets that, yes, this is a high school show.

I also have to admit, I never watched the show on TV, I didn't get it until well after it had aired and I had the Third Season on TV. And being, that I LOVED the Third Season, the First and Second far surpassed my expectations.

If you're looking for a good detective show, or an even better teen show, I strongly advise this whole series.

Veronica Mars' sophomore effort (or, according to the series, her senior one) is excellent, if it doesn't quite achieve the heights of the first season.

It has a lot to live up to, after all, and the resolution of the bus accident just doesn't have the same punch as finding out who killed Lilly Kane. Also, we've moved past the unexplored romantic tensions between Veronica and Logan that provided so much kick to the mid-to-late parts of the first season, and are stuck instead in a bizarre love pentagon with Veronica, Logan, Meg, Duncan and Kendall.

Some characters, so central to the series initially, leave for a while and sometimes come back (and sometimes, not). While the final few episodes find a spark, again, and provide worthy thrills and chills, it isn't as fulfilling or meaningful as the season that came before it.

Not that this is a crime. The Second Season of Veronica Mars is still well-written, and beautifully acted by most of its regulars. The emergence of "Beaver" as a main character and his fledgling romance with always-endearing Mac is one of the highlights, as is the continued stunt-casting brilliance, finding roles (among others) for Kevin Smith and Joss Whedon.

On the whole, Veronica Mars is one of the recent bright spots in all of television, and these episodes are no exception to that. A four-and-a-half star season from a five star show: rounds up to five.
