So as you can tell from the title I"m a huge V. Mars fan. The main question is why aren't you? Season 3 has more snappy comebacks, more edgy plot lines , and more adultish situations. By no means is Veronica a push over but there are situations where she is "put in her place" in a more adult sense than when she was in High School. All in all the third season is both more and less realistic. In both cases however it is totally awesome and in my opinion better than the first two seasons in the show has progressed to this point naturally. Someone should slap the faces of every WB exec who voted to cancel this show it was really beginning to come into it's own. Anyone who liked the girl let cast of Buffy and other such shows should be watching Veronica Mars!
