"The machinations of save-our-show fan campaigns are always changing, but the passion fans have for the shows they love most, that never dies".

Seven years after it was canceled, Veronica Mars returned to the screen in 2014 - the Big Screen. Funded to tune of $5.7M by fans via one of the most-backed Kickstarter campaigns ever up until that point in time.

• Is Kickstarter still a viable platform to resurrect genre TV shows?

• Was there something extra special about Veronica Mars and the connection the show had with fans, that made this a truly unique situation? Still, I don’t know.
