Veronica Mars: The Complete First Season (actually Season 4) from WAC

[Tyger]

I don’t understand how they could literally put this out as season one without any kind of differentiation.

I kinda already don’t like that the movie is just called Veronica Mars, but this...

Of course I’m buying it though.

I mean, if WAC REALLY wanted to be nice, they could just release a giant box set on Blu-Ray of the original run, and call it the Complete Original Series, or something like that (I remember Torchwood got a similar box set prior to the Miracle Day season, labeled the Complete UK Series, for example). I could work with that...

Crossing fan bases here, the best to hope for at this point is this season sells impressively like Batman: Mask of the Phantasm did and leads to the original seasons(/series?) getting released in a massive box set with everything.

Maybe they’ll try to get the attention of a certain part of the fan base and release Veronica Mars: The LoVe Years: Season 1-3

The absurdity of calling this season 1 overshadowed that it might be a good sign that there will be more

I was thinking the same thing. Planning on getting this day 1. Recommend that everyone spread the word on this release so we maybe get a chance of the rest of the series. I’d also suggest picking up a copy of the movie if you haven’t yet since that still seems to be in print

The thing about Torchwood though is it was still the same series, Starz just insisted on it being called a new series because they joined in with production... but it didn't incorrectly call itself season 1, it called itself Miracle Day. "The Complete Original UK Series" just meant there was no US involvement at all yet. With VM, you can't have two season 1's of the same series... and they can say it's not the "same" series but it is. It's just going to cause confusion, especially with new fans.

If they are dead set on this being "season one" they need to elaborate on the series, copy Will & Grace and call it "Veronica Mars: The Revival/The Return - The Complete First Season," or drop the season number all together and retroactively add a subtitle like Torchwood does and Strike Back does in the UK but stupidly doesn't in the US... call it "Veronica Mars: Spring Break" or something and any future seasons could have them as well relating to the arc that season.

I would actually love a subtitle which is what I meant by not really liking that the movie is just called Veronica Mars. Especially after the books, I want everything to go back and get a fun noir subtitle.

They could still release the first three seasons and call it the original series lol. Veronica Mars: The Original Series Season 1

Or they could not be stupid to begin with

Since TVShowsOnDVD reported it today, I tweeted WB and WAC saying I'm glad it's coming out, but why call it The Complete First season, they should distinguish them somehow like "Veronica Mars: The Revival - The Complete First Season" lol
