Quotes:
Keith Mars:
You know what, this is important. You remember this: I used to be cool.
Veronica Mars: When?
Keith Mars: '77. Trans-Am, Blue Oyster Cult in the 8-track, a foxy stacked blonde riding shotgun, racing for pink slips. Aw, wait a minute, I'm thinking of a Springsteen song. Scratch everything, I was never cool.
Veronica Mars: I don't know which bothers me more, "foxy" or "stacked"...

If you don't believe me, try, the next time the pilot is broadcast.
They'll need the viewers anyway since Veronica mars has been dead last on UPN since this awful premiere episode.
Why was it bad, you ask... Let's take one example: a student is found tied and tortured on the flag mast of the school. The reaction of the students? Boredom. The reaction of the teachers? None. The reaction of the parents? None again.
And all that with the tone of the episode so earnestly trying to convince you that this is a realistic show.
What nonsense!! Ever since, Veronica Mars has been hyped constantly, shown on CBS, renewed "for its potential" and has yet to get any audience traction.
The only mystery in that show is what does Joel Silver have on the CBS brass?
