DVD Description

The second season of Veronica Mars showcases the series' crackling-sharp writing and topnotch acting of star Kristen Bell and the rest of the cast. Veronica still struggles with the class wars in sunny Neptune, Calif., trying to find a balance between high school, love, helping her dad as a private eye, and doing the right thing. The ongoing thread of season 2 is the aftermath of a horrifying tragedy, and as Veronica and dad Keith try to find out what caused it, mysteries only compound. Shifty Sheriff Lamb, town powerbrokers, and various high-school cliques seem to undermine Veronica at every turn. Thankfully, Veronica has more chutzpah than Phillip Marlowe, and the side-of-the-mouth one-liners to match: "Well, actually," Veronica says dryly to a bad guy, "despite popular opinion, you really can't beat the truth out of someone." Some of the show's broad strokes echo the stellar Buffy the Vampire Slayer, yet Bell's Veronica doesn't need the supernatural to tackle a challenge. She's a real girl, conflicted, prickly, lovesick, yearning, sometimes even scared. As Veronica tries to solve the mystery, she must also handle her own heartbreaks, and the moral stumbles of those closest to her. Happily, she's got a great best pal, Wallace (the effervescent Percy Daggs III), and possibly the coolest, most understanding TV dad ever (Enrico Colantoni). The boxed set includes 22 episodes (many with deleted scenes), a behind-the-scenes mini-doc, a cute gag reel, and a short profile film, Veronica Mars: Not Your Average Teen Detective. You can say that again. --A.T. Hurley


Customer Reviews

V-Mars :o)

i love this show :) but one of the dvd's doesn't stay stuck in the box. so the show is great buuuut the dvd set is kind of shabbily made. They need more blooper reels and special features!


Better than season 1

I know that most people think that the second season of Veronica Mars is not as good as the first, but I found myself enjoying it more. If the over-arching storyline is not as compelling, the stand alone episodes definitely are. But even saying this, if you had to make me choose which season long arc was better, I wouldn't be able to choose. Season 2 definitely delivered on the lofty heights that Veronica Mars season 1 set.

During season 2 there are some fantastic episodes, probably my personal favourite being the final episode 'Not Pictured', which feels like the very thing the entire first 2 seasons were building towards. This is truly compelling television.

As far as the DVD set goes, this delivers about what you'd expect. While it doesnt go all out on the extras, what is there is quality. I would have liked to have seen some commentaries but I'm a commentary fan, and some do not share this sentiment. The extras features include deleted scenes, bloopers, a video diary on the set for a day with Kristen Bell and a documentary. All well worth it. Also, for those who care, the box art is superior to season 1 in my opinion.

Note: Buffy fans. If you want to see your lord and master, Joss Whedon ranting about minstrils, check out the bloopers. It's hilarious.

Overall a fantastic season of a great show and a great DVD package for it. Highly reccommended.


Veronica Mars Season 2

Veronica Mars is fabulous! I highly recommend it for anyone who is looking for a combination of a suspense/teenage drama kind of series. It's one of the best out there.
