Veronica Mars isn't a cop, but she isn't your average 'hobbyist detective' either. Under the careful supervision of Rob Thomas, Veronica Mars painted a portrait of its title character that wasn't cloying or condescending, but genuinely felt like a real 17-year-old. She's not a spunky girl detective like Nancy Drew; she's a flawed and fallible gumshoe who can solve her classmate's problems, but can't figure out her own love life.
Part of the show's success is due to its unflinching attitude to the darker parts of being a teenage girl. What makes Veronica Mars stand out is its ability to balance grim investigations with high school drama, making it relatable yet captivating.
