Veronica Mars fans shouldn’t expect a new season anytime soon, but there is still hope for more of the series in the future. Season four of the series premiered on Hulu in July, and the finale did not make fans at all happy.
Rob Thomas did explain his decision about the way things ended for Veronica and Logan after the premiere, and he also spoke about the plot of a possible fifth season. He does have ideas for what will come next for Veronica Mars. Her character is played by Kristen Bell.
He said the following about his ideas for a potential season five and a new direction for the series, per TV Line:
“[I already have a] couple ideas in my head, one of which is very Agatha Christie-[esque]. It won’t be this exactly, but some version of Murder in a Manor House. Something that is so explicitly detective-y… I want to really lean into that we are a detective show… I feel like Season 4 was the bridge season, to take us from half soap opera/half mystery show to full detective/mystery show.”
However, Hulu is not looking to order a fifth season at this time. It could still happen, but it might take time.
What do you think? Do you want a fifth season of Veronica Mars? Do want the series to go in a new direction?
I loved Veronica Mars and was so excited about Season 4. I rewatched from Season 1 and had a wonderful time until the last two minutes of Season 4 which destroyed it all for me. No, I’m not interested in Season 5 until Thomas can pull a Dallas and make those last minutes be a nightmare that we all shared with Veronica.
Uhh, of course I want season 5! I was devastated about what happened to Logan, but the show still has so much more story to tell! Veronica Mars isn’t over yet. Not in my eyes.
Although I am and have been an avid Veronica Mars fan, I do not plan on watching a fifth season. Rob Thomas ruined the franchise. Couldn’t he just give the audience what we wanted? A hero who can save Veronica from herself.
Why, Rob Thomas?? Why?? No Logan, no watch! Bring him back, I’m on board!
More seasons for sure! Love Love Veronica and Lohan! Veronica needs bodyguard Logan if the detective aspect is being kicked up a notch, or even if it’s the same great detective work that’s always been done.
Lot of haters. I would love to see a season 5…6, 7… I was bummed but got over it. A real disappointment was the Dexter series ending. Now that sucked.
Yes, I would like a fifth season..more Kristen Bell is always good
Yes, please. I would love a 5th season. Thank you. I hope that it happens.
Sure if they bring Logan back!
Yes please! I need to get over the tragedy along with Veronica.
Honestly I don’t won’t or care if there will be season 5,Rob Thomas find a way to ruin my all time favorite tv show forever for me.
I signed up for Hulu to rewatch the series and to watch Season 4. I was just starting my rewatch of Season 3 when they released S4 early. Within 24 hours, the ending was all over the internet. I immediately stopped watching the show and shortly after cancelled my Hulu subscription, never having seen S4. No thanks on S5. Thanks for the memories, Rob Thomas and Kristen Bell, but my head canon will be that they all lived happily ever after following the movie.
Way to misread your fandom, RT. A good balance between characters (and their non-detective lives) and mystery made Veronica Mars great. Not interested in a show with half its soul ripped out.
NO FIFTH SEASON FOR ME!
Hulu, thank you for doing the right thing and listening to 3/4 of the Veronica Mars fandom.
I never want to see Rob Thomas produce Veronica Mars ever again unless it is with the sole intent of bringing Logan back alive.
Yes, please. I want a fifth season.
