Veronica Mars

A contemporary of The O.C., Veronica Mars delved into the teen detective genre through a storyline of Mars trying to solve her best friend’s murder. Kristen Bell gave the female lead a powerful personality. Its “one case for one season” scheme, in which Mars got onto a case at the start of a season and spent the rest of it solving the crime, was a great set-up. Waning popularity forced the writers to shift to a “one case for one week” scheme in the third season, but this could not save the show. In 2014, Veronica Mars was resurrected as movie.
