Have you tried Veronica Mars yet?

It’s got an over-arching mystery for the whole season for the first two seasons, but there are case of the week things every episode too. It’s a really great show with good writing and smart, sassy characters.

I was thinking of watching it. It's a "case of the week" type of show tho, right? Is it like that for the whole show or what?

It’s case of the week but with a season long overarching mystery. Each season has its own long mystery she is working towards solving. The Movie and S4 (which came out a few years ago) doesn’t really do the case of the week (if I recall).

It's kind of like Buffy meets Nancy Drew. It has a main arc like that Buffy but has episodic cases sprinkled in.

I almost didn’t watch VM because the awful channel promos where I am made it look like a lame O.C. rip-off.

Oh man, that’s crazy. I guess with a similar setting, it kinda makes sense. They’re very, very different shows though.
