Equal parts Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Nancy Drew, Veronica Mars is smartly written and well-acted. This third and final season of the critically acclaimed (but viewer-challenged) series ends as all good shows should--by leaving viewers wanting more and wondering how their favorite characters will fare in the future. By now, our spunky heroine Veronica (played by the effervescent Kristen Bell) is a college student working on a degree in criminology. Though blond, pretty, and uber-smart, Veronica doesn't have an easy time fitting in to her new setting. The series focuses as much on her personal life this season as it does on the cases she is hired (and paid) to solve. Besides dealing with rapes, robbery, and other sordid crimes, Veronica has to clear her own name when she is accused of plagiarizing. She also gets involved in helping figure out who may have given a pregnant friend a pill that caused her to lose the baby. This year's guest stars include some stunt casting with Patty Hearst, who plays a wealthy woman who disappears during an event held in her honor. Unlike the first two years where Veronica focused on solving one major crime, this season features several story arcs. Perhaps it was the producer's way of trying to attract more viewers, but diehard fans may be turned off by the change, which provides a less cohesive storyline than in the past. All 20 episodes--which aired originally during the 2006-2007 television season--are included in this six-disc set. The collection also includes a cute gag reel and an informative bonus feature that includes insightful commentary from show creator Rob Thomas. --Jae-Ha Kim

 Two great seasons, one not so much! July 24, 2008
I loved this show when it came out. I thought it was really different and the players were deep and you loved getting to know them. We were led on a journey to find out what made them tick. In season three the characters changed in ways that were not very flattering or developed. I am not sure if it was the change of network or a downward spiral in writing, but the third season left behind reason and never looked back. I spent most of season three wanting to put Veronica on "time out" and shaking my head at Logan. These characters deserved more. Like any good show you have to ride the wave to the end and there were some really good moments, but the writers lost touch with what made us fall in love with these people and introduced new people not worth knowing. If you get this season on sale it is worth buying!
 Veronica Mars Third Season review July 4, 2008
I found this final season of the Veronica Mars series to be highly entertaining. The package and DVDs arrived in excellent condition and the shows both touched and amused me. It was awesome to watch the special features disk and see the 4th season that never came to pass, as well as a gag reel and interviews from the actors and crew. This series should have been able to stay on the air - fortunately, thanks to DVDs, we can watch them whenever we like.
 OK, I admit, I was hooked on Veronica Mars the first time round June 30, 2008
Seasons 1 and 2 both have an underlying thread throughout the entire season, where as season 3 had two or three such threads. When I first saw this season on TV, I remember thinking this was the one thing that let it down.
However, rewatching it on DVD, I just didn't get that feeling this time round. Maybe because as I watched Veronica, her father, her friends and the cool cases she always worked on, I knew this would be the last of VM. CW really blew it cancelling VM and I'm glad I now have all three seasons on DVD.
But it would be nice to know what happened to her after season three.
The end of Mars. June 23, 2008
Veronica Mars - The Complete Third Season is pretty much a mixed bag. This was the last season of this cult classic and I can understand why this show was cancelled. Kristen Bell who plays Veronica Mars is a good actress but the plotlines and glossy writing is too much. The characters were one-demensional and artifical. Stick with the first two seasons instead, season three was a snoozefest.
season 3 is third best in the short line of VMs but still great!!!! June 20, 2008

season 3 was ok. it wasn't as great as 1 and 2 but it certainly wasn't bad. It was a transition season, and like transition movies and books, it lost some of the charm the other seasons had because it had to convey a lot and keep its audiences while atempting to gain more fans. Moving from high school to college, meant a whole new staff, new story lines, new sides of neptune and still incorperating the original characters like Kieth.
When i bought Seasons 1 and 2 i couldnt tear my eyes away from the screen, but season 3 i was able to space out over days. The very last episode was proof that rob thomas hadn't lost his touch. It was pure veronica gold. The last scene of veronica walking down a rainy street away from the camera while the song "it never rains in southern california" plays was just haunting! It was perfect and as end to the series it did fine. It left hope for LoVe, showed us a forever strong bond between veronica and kieth, and keeps us thinking about veronica's future with the new knowledge of a secret society and its member's mishaps and jake kane's invlovment.
now, had they done a season 4 at the FBI, i think that would have been werid. as a promo on the dvd it was awesome! i loved being able to see were veronica would end up, but as a movie i really hope they do like a fourth season of the show with veronica still in college and answering some of season 3's questions in that brillant Rob Thomas fashion.
Overall season 3 is a must have for fans and curious newbies alike, not as great but still really really good.
