The series was critically acclaimed for its smart writing, compelling story telling, and for Creator/KristenBell's starmaking performance as the titular Veronica. The first two seasons were known for having a season-long StoryArc. The {{Driving Question}}s of Season One have just been covered. Season Two opens with a school bus crash that kills or injures several of Veronica's classmates, with the Marses suspecting foul play and attempting to unravel the complicated motivations behind it; additionally, Logan is implicated in the slaying of a [=PCHer=], Felix Toombs, who was found dead after an altercation which left both Logan and Weevil unconscious.
Season Three, where Veronica goes to [[CaliforniaUniversity Hearst College]], deviated from the formula in an attempt to attract new viewers because despite its positive reception, the show struggled to find a large audience. The big mystery format was abandoned, in favor of two short arcs and a hand-full of stand-alone episodes. The show was later canceled at the end of the season, going out on an awesome (and [[TearJerker heart-breaking]], but maddeningly inconclusive) two-part finale.
On March 13, 2013, [[http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/559914737/the-veronica-mars-movie-project a Kickstarter project was launched]] to help fund a [[TheMovie concluding movie]]. The Kickstarter broke the record for [[https://twitter.com/kickstarter/status/311918388962287617 fastest to reach a million dollars]], in four hours and 24 minutes, and reached its $2 million funding goal less than 11 hours in. When the Kickstarter ended on April 12, $5,702,153 had been donated, and the [[VideoGame/BrokenAge previous record for most donations]] (87,000 people) was also broken with 91,585 fans sending in donations. As a result, Creator/WarnerBros agreed to distribute and market the film, releasing it to theatres and for download on March 14, 2014 - a year and a day after the Kickstarter launched. Additionally, six months later a WebVideo SpinOff, ''[[http://cwseed.com/shows/play-it-again-dick/ Play It Again, Dick!]]'', launched on [[Creator/TheCW CW Seed]]. It centers around Ryan Hansen's adventures in attempting to greenlight a SpinOff of the show centered around his character Dick Casablancas and involves Hansen, Bell, Dohring, and others engaging in some unabashed AdamWesting.
In August 2018, it was announced that an eight-episode revival of the series had been ordered by Creator/{{Hulu}}, with Kristen Bell and most of the original cast set to return. The long-awaited fourth season finally arrived on Hulu in July 2019, preceded by the addition of the entire series (minus the movie) that same month.
