As with last night there is plenty to like about tonight, as pretty much everything is new. This includes the best show that not enough people are watching, Veronica Mars. If you like mysteries, great characters, witty dialogue and a strong female character then what’s not to like? This show has all of the above and then some. It is only a couple of weeks into the new mystery and there is always a mystery of the week as well. So give it a shot or at least let your TiVo record it while you are watching House. Do you watch Veronica Mars? Leave your thoughts in the comments why others should be watching, as well.
