Scott Humbert/The CWA little update on the winner and runner-up of this year's Save One Show campaign.
As I mentioned in the latest chat, Veronica Mars executive producer Rob Thomas is the special guest of this week's Watch with Kristin show on the Vine. Although you'll have to wait till Monday morning to see the entire show, I wanted to get out one message right away.
According to Rob Thomas, Veronica Mars has not been canceled. At least not yet. He is meeting with the CW next week to pitch ideas for season four, and the show's fate will be decided after that.
You may have seen the report in USA Today that VM has been canceled, and also Enrico Colantoni's interview in the Toronto Star, saying that the CW did not love the 10-minute presentation of an FBI version of the show. But according to Thomas, the CW has not yet seen the FBI presentation and there most definitely is still hope for a season four.
Don't know about you, but that's news so good it almost makes me weepy.
Rob (who couldn't have been a better guest) gave more scoop on the show's fate and also the big love triangle (including some interesting, season-ending dish on Logan and Veronica). So, make sure you check back Monday for that.
As for our big, SOS grand-prize winner, nothing is official—yet. But I'm hearing from sources connected to the CW that Gilmore Girls is looking promising for an eighth season, although it does look to be a shortened season of 13 episodes, as has been rumored. Insiders tell me the CW definitely wants the show to return and has been working hard to get the Girls to sign new contracts.
By the way, many of you have asked about the response from the Gilmore cast or crew to the show's success in our SOS campaign. I still haven't heard back, but of course I will let you know the moment I do.
Bottom line: If ever there were a time to send postcards, write letters or put a big ol' banner in the sky, now is the time!
