There is one thing that is more annoying that witnessing the waste of money and resources created by a bad show like Veronica Mars staying on the air: hearing that you are too stupid to "get it".
How come every low-rated show resorts to that nonsensical defense? If it's low-rated it's because the audience doesn't understand it because they're dumb, or so goes the argument.
Guess what? The public "gets it". Thanks to the repeated promotions, Veronica Mars was heavily sampled and most of the audience that sampled it chose not to watch it again.
The reason, mostly bad writing. The writers (particularly Rob Thomas) seem more interested in showing how "cool" they are than in compelling storytelling, and the result is one tremendous waste of resources that was instrumental in getting UPN folded with the WB.
If the endless parade of bad shows aimed at the "all important" fill-in your target demographic had been any good, those two networks would have been more successful. Sadly for UPN and WB, good shows do not result from endless pandering to a demographic, they result from good writing and direction and from appealing to all through quality.
Sadly, it looks like the new CW network will just be another UPN or WB as they have announced their intention of continuing the senseless pursuit of, frankly ageist, young demographics, which will probably mean another parade of Veronica Marses: empty, low-rated shows animated by a lot of hype.
What a waste!
