So, is anyone else returning to Neptune along with Veronica, Logan, Keith, Wallace, Weevil, and the rest? Is there anyone who was going to watch, but hey, now that the ending's been spoiled by everyone, isn't? 

Overall, I found the noir vibe a welcome return. In some ways, the Kickstarter campaign gave us a film with a kinder, gentler tone, whereas this series puts us back into the muck and mire that is Veronica's violent world of haves vs. have-nots.

The show's trademark wit and intelligence are very much in evidence*, and the performances are excellent. It really does my heart good to see Veronica back and in top form. 

* Except for that one thing, to read most reviews...

I thought the ending was appropriate to the character. I knew it would be controversial, as there was a segment of the fanbase heavily invested in that relationship. But I never thought it was the be-all and end-all of Veronica. Seeing some of the fan reaction to the ending made me realize how prescient Stephen King's MISERY was.

Glad to see Logan killed off tho I never bought into their relationship.  Veronica as an adult tho leaves a lot to be desired she came across as a loser still in her hometown, can't commit to marriage till she considers cheating (the dream sequence) still saving her high school and really was outsmarted by the bad guy.  

The first two seasons of VM still hold up as some fine TV the cracks show up during the college year but still pretty damn good the movie was really forgettable 

Hopefully they put a bow on her life with another season w  something of a happy send off

As for the Jessica Jones aspect, well, Krysten Ritter was on the original series and in the movie... :-)

I'm in the middle of Season Two and I'm a little surprised by how little time she actually spent with Logan. I know the major portion of their relationship is yet to come, but still... Hey, anything that puts Charisma Carpenter on my TV screen is welcome as far as I'm concerned.

Michael, I liked the protege element as well. After all the trouble the movie went through to put Veronica back where she started, Season 4 went out of its way to cut her loose from all that, while leaving everything tended to and taken care of nonetheless. It's an interesting place to leave the character. 

As for MISERY, in the case of Veronica Mars, the fanbase is literally invested in the property. I work with a man who bought into the Kickstarter campaign and he is not happy with the end of the series. He nodded emphatically when I said that the fans would have burned the theaters down had that been the ending for the film.

I just find fans’ sense of betrayal a bit overwrought, especially since Logan was essentially transformed into a different character to justify him and Veronica getting back together in the movie, something that Season 4 highlighted. I always regarded Veronica’s relationship with Logan as an example of one of her character flaws, choosing someone who was bad for her.
