Enjoyable return to form
If you've seen the first season of Veronica Mars and enjoyed the larger than life mix of teen drama and crime-busting antics then it goes without saying you'll enjoy the second season. It's basically more of the same and in fact follows on from the last story arc to conclude a few loose ends whilst opening up some others.
If there are any criticisms for this particular season then it's the beginning and the end - with it particularly slow to get started before finally cramming in some insanely executed plot-lines in the last few episodes. This isn't an exactly new turn for Veronica Mars - as the first season was quite similar in a less overt way - but it does feel forced here, and the multi-faceted characters are stripped down into one-dimensional caricatures for the all too brief ending.
Any further criticism is related to the way some side-stories are poorly handled. Wallace and his family being one example I won't go into details of for fear of spoiler - but to say that the issues raised aren't dealt with should suffice. I felt it tampered with the dynamic created in the first season, and not in a good way.
Overall the season is enjoyable, not as well rounded an experience as the first, but definitely a must see for Veronica Mars fans - I give it 4 stars.
