Live CW Upfront Coverage 12:28 First question, asked by me: "Is Veronica dead?"
12;29 OK, here it is in a nutshell, per dawn ostroff. Veronica Mars is dead. But, and there is a but, she says she's "talking to Rob and Kristen" about doing something else. She's not calling it a spin-off, and wouldn't say whether it would feature the character of Veronica. Translation; I'm as confused as ever!
12:33 I will try and get more clarification on this. Please stand by...
12:36 OK, a reporter just asked a VM follow-up - and Dawn continues to dodge. She says they're discussing "an idea," but adds, "I don't think it's going to happen."
12;47 The press conference is over. I tackle dawn just as she tries to escape and I ask her to level with me. Is Veronica dead? "Veronica Mars is over, but we're talking about something else. I don't know if it's going to be anything. I'm being honest with you. It could come back in some form, but I don't know what form that would be." She confirmed that the deadline to make a decision is "somewhere around" the June 15 date i referred to previously. Long story short: mystery still not solved!
12:53 Heading back to the office to bang my head against the wall.

Day 1: NBC Day 2: ABC Day 3: CBS There you have it folks, all the major networks have announced their fall schedules. Unfortunately any Veronica Mars OFFICIAL news, and it may not even be VM, will come at the latest June 15, it may come back as a midseason show or cancelled for good, which seems more likely. It is very sad, though I haven't been enjoying the show as a whole, just bits and pieces, since it came back from hiatus.
