On the Cancellation of Veronica Mars...

So, it's looking quasi official. Veronica Mars seems to be cancelled (barring some unlikely although still technically possible reprieve before June 14th, the date the network officially has to make a decision by).
It's strange though. After this year... it's not so much that I didn't _care_ if it was cancelled, I wanted it to be renewed, but I wouldn't be terribly disappointed either. My reaction was, "Oh well, it had a decent run". I think that was partly because they'd talked about dropping the longer mystery arcs. In any event, I was okay with it.
But once they started floating the idea that it might survive by jumping a few years ahead in time and having Veronica in the FBI... I was really looking forward to that. I'm more disappointed at not being able to see _that_ than I am that Veronica Mars itself was cancelled.
Looking over the new schedule... the new fall season looks to stink. A couple shows I'm mildly interested in, but none I'm excited about, and some returning shows I'm happy about of course. But no wow factor like last year. I'll give a more complete rundown sometime in the next few days probably.
