Overview

Star Trek has its Trekkers, Firefly has its Browncoats and Veronica Mars has its loyal assortment of Marshmallows. Taken off the air after just three highly underrated seasons, Ms Mars was assumed dead and buried, only to be resurrected earlier this year via a record-breaking Kickstarter film campaign.

Hosted in ACMI’s Studio 1 on the evening of May 27, the latest Live in the Studio panel will dive headfirst into the critically acclaimed series, as well as the follow-up feature film. With a line-up that includes The Lifted Brow Deputy Editor Stephanie Van Schilt and feminist writer Karen Pickering, the discussion of TV's most intrepid teen detective will serve as a jumping off point for a broader exploration of fandom, crowd-funding and the key to lasting pop-cultural impact.
