no more mars

Veronica Mars axed.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...

I know it's kinda expected, but I was still wildly optimistic. And Rob Thomas said he was gonna treat this finale as a season finale and not a series finale. So has it been filmed? Are they gonna reshoot? They have to reshoot. Take back all the random couples and give LoVe the happy ending. Or I will stab someone.

ETA: Oh well, at least it's not the last we see of Kristen Bell. Bell has lined up the title role in "Forgetting Sarah Marshall," a feature romantic comedy set up at Universal.

ETA: WTF.

I just heard from Veronica mastermind and showrunner Rob Thomas, who tells me, "If we're cancelled, I certainly don't know about it."

Though Rob did not say anything further, inside sources at the CW have explained to me a more detailed version of the situation: According to network insiders, the CW has not officially canceled Veronica Mars. However, they are currently considering a different format for the fourth season. That format would leap four years into the future and focus on Veronica Mars as an FBI agent.

I hate that Kristin Veitch. This is like, what, the 10th time she had been wrong about something. She was the one who claimed reliable sources had that Jack was getting killed off Lost, which later turned out to be nowhere near the truth. Argh.

I can't take this up and down rollercoaster ride of emotions. And now FBI agent format? What? I can't... what?

NO! -dies-

[somersaulter.livejournal.com]

I know. =(

Ah, there has been an update (http://www.eonline.com/gossip/kristin/blog/index.jsp?uuid=75a31622-f0e6-4166-be21-798de6671716).

I have no idea what is going on.

[carrine.livejournal.com]

I gotta say I'm not too upset. But I think that stems from the fact that I really didn't like the way the show was headed, and Rob Thomas was starting to really bug me. I'd rather Veronica Mars be remembered for it's first (and second) incredible seasons rather then this watered down, cookie-cutter thing the show has become.

It's also probably because I guessed this was coming, so I've been distancing myself from Veronica Mars and attaching myself wholeheartedly to the Black Donnelly's fandom.

[somersaulter.livejournal.com]

I agree with you for the most part, but as I said, I was wildly optimistic throughout the season, a little numb and careless. I just kept thinking it could get better as the season goes. I guess now I'm just disappointed that the show ends on such a bad season. Hopefully the finale will be a good one.

Ah, The Black Donnellys. A very good fandom. =)

Yeah, I hate Kristin like many of the other people I'm noticing today. lol. But I think having the show reformat would be better then continuing with college life. So far college has not been good to the show, and turning it into essentially a new show may give it the boost it needs. But only if logan is there.

That being said, I have no idea the OTH people had been thinking of doing that, so it would be kinda weird for two teen dramas to jump at the same time.

[saint-renegade.livejournal.com]

Eh I think Krsiten was right the first time. Or that just could be hoping out loud because wow the reformatting idea is only like, the worst ever.

[somersaulter.livejournal.com]

I think you're right. But still, I'm actually coming to terms with the cancellation and now there's a little hope and I'm not sure what I think of it. It honestly felt like a One Tree Hill ripoff to me 'cos the creator of OTH has been talking about leaping forward a few years for season 5 since the beginning of this season.

[alwaysavingme.livejournal.com]

I know. And now there's a chance Veronica Mars MIGHT BE axed

[somersaulter.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I hope they give us something definite soon. It sucks to be so unsure.

[alwaysavingme.livejournal.com]

Yeah this gonna worry me for a while until SOMETHING is confirmed!

[princess-narnia.livejournal.com]

Wow...

Y'know I was sorta expecting this after the news I heard a couple months back that they had only orderd 13 odd eps of the show...then there were those hints about how the show was going down. I haven't seen season 3 yet, (season 2 is gonna end here in Sri Lanka in a couple of weeks)

But the additional stuff about V as an FBI agent-that's like deviating entirely from the main plot. I figured it would always be about her as a highschool and then college student... this is just...hmm....weird, no?

[somersaulter.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but then the CW ordered an additional 7 more, pushing it up to almost a full season and people were more assured about its future, but more have been complaining about the quality of season 3, and the ratings are bad. Enjoy season 2 while it last. Season 3 is really not as good.

I have no idea how it's gonna be like as a FBI show. Honestly I can't see Kristen Bell carrying it off, but who knows.

[princess-narnia.livejournal.com]

Yes, they did, didn't they. :/ Its weird, I guess they figured that after those extra 7 eps it still wasn't up to par. :(

Man, its a shame...I heard season 3 was a downer. Hopefully they will show it here immediately after season 2 ends. I'd rather see it all now than have to wait to see season 3.

Yeah it just goes against her whole spunky highs chool girl/college girl personality. :/

[heaven-eyes.livejournal.com]

*sigh* Its a little hard to be on hiatus when you have a sister who tells you fandom news!! And Im all 'omg i want to go on lj to read about it'. :P

LOL well I had enough willpower to stay away when I thought VM WAS cancelled.

Except now my willpower is CRUMBLING. Ok *sigh* Im not going to read anyone else's journal but yours :p

Im glad vm's not cancelled. Im more afraid for OTH and Spn though.

Veronica as fbi agent = weird. Please LET THERE BE LOGAN IF THIS HAPPENS.

[somersaulter.livejournal.com]

Sorry for the late reply! Hope you're still hanging around? Or not? Since you're on a hiatus? LOL.

I'm worried for OTH and SPN too, but I think CW can't possibly axe the majority of its shows right? Honestly right now, I pick SPN and OTH over VM.

YES! If there's no Logan, I'm not even gonna bother to watch it.

[heaven-eyes.livejournal.com]

Lol, that's okay :) Mmmm well I was KIND OF hanging around but also not really...

Anyway, I decided today I just couldnt stay away from LJ anymore!! :( :( So Im back now. No more hiatus. I feel lj-deprived! :( I just missed it too much. Ok I just realized thats kinda sad...:P

I'd pick Spn and OTH over VM too! I wouldnt be THAT upset if it was just VM. Spn and OTH being cancelled is just too awful to contemplate. So Im just not gonna think about it. If it happens then I will just...I have no idea :P

LOL that's funny that we said that about Logan...'Cos apparently he ISNT coming back. Great, well the new format is pretty much the same as killing the show! Im so not watching s4 now IF it comes back. *sigh* Oh thanks, this makes my day so much better.

[vanee.livejournal.com]

I HATE Kristin with a passion. She ALWAYS does that. I don't believe anything until it has been confirmed by Rob himself. *pout*

[somersaulter.livejournal.com]

YES. I shall never ever trust her again.

[berrymcgregor.livejournal.com]

I will be pretty pissed if they do steal Mark's idea in an attempt to save VM. :/

[somersaulter.livejournal.com]

I was thinking that too. Hm.

[sheiswrong.livejournal.com]

Wtf. Confusion. :oo

[somersaulter.livejournal.com]

They need to come up with a decision and just stick with it. =P

[cakeholes.livejournal.com]

The best day would be the day I found out VM and SN were both renewed. Seriously, people just don't know good television.

[somersaulter.livejournal.com]

Agreed. (And One Tree Hill too!)

[cakeholes.livejournal.com]

And One Tree Hill too!
Yeah! I only just got into that show this season, it would suck if it got cancelled.

[justanothergirl.livejournal.com]

Wow, I've been gone from the fandom world for the last two days and I guess it's good because I haven't had to deal with this. Kristin Veitch is soo annoying.

I'd much rather see the show cancelled than have the FBI thing happen. Please, the idea to fast forward four years into the future was ridiculous when they considered it for OTH. It is one of the reasons why I no longer watch that show.

[somersaulter.livejournal.com]

*sighs* I just hate that it's gonna go on such a terrible note. I didn't really mind the idea for OTH because they could write every in and it could potentially be good, but Rob Thomas blatantly taking that idea kinda pissed me off. If he can't even come up with an original concept, I doubt he can continue making a good show.

[sokash.livejournal.com]

Kristin sucks. RT ideas too. VM FBI agent ????!! Please... I want a 4th season more than anything, but if it's as bad as the 3rd, no, thx ^^

[somersaulter.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I need a season 4 which is good. It will be stupid to watch it sink even lower. *sighs*
