Now With Screen Captures: Kristen Bell At The Emmys!
Kristen Bell (Veronica) was one of the guests at the 2005 Emmy Awards honoring the best in television. The show aired on CBS September 18.

Kristen participated in an "Emmy Idol" performance where she sung the theme song to Fame. Sadly, KB didn't win, even though she was surely the best, though we may be biased here at Neptunesite.

(Interesting VM trivia for you: Erica Gimpel, who plays Wallace's mother Alicia Fennel, played "Coco" on the original Fame TV series, and, unless the Internet Movie Database is mistaken, Ms. Gimpel was the one who originally performed the theme music for the television series back in 1982!)

Mr. Video has provided us with some screen captures from Kristen's performance which you can find in a gallery by clicking here. We also have a special treat for you... a sound file of Kristen Bell performing "Fame" at the Emmys! Please right click to save; and don't hotlink to the sound file.

Charity Auction Gives Fans A Chance To Win Veronica's Choker, Set Visit, & More
We here at Neptunesite just received an e-mail about a special event that's happening this Saturday (August 20) that will include an auction featuring several high-profile Veronica Mars items. Instead of condensing it into article form, here, we'll just share the e-mail:

Dear Neptunesite Webmaster:

I wanted to let you know about a special charity event that will be taking place this Saturday, August 20 at the AMF Rocket Lanes in Chatsworth, California, featuring several great auction items from Veronica Mars.

First of all the charity event is the Third Annual Zeke Lerner Celebrity Bowl-A-Thon (BAT), benefiting Families of Spinal Muscular Atrophy, a rare form of Muscular Dystrophy, that is the #1 genetic killer of children under the age of 2.

You can learn more about the BAT at the following website: http://www.bowl4fsma.org/

After two rounds of bowling, there will be a large live auction, featuring items from shows such as Buffy, Joan of Arcadia, Lost and Veronica Mars. I felt it only right that the folks at Neptunesite are aware of the great items that were donated to the BAT by the show.

1. Veronica’s favorite choker - the one she wore all season.

2. A visit to the set.

3. A walk on role.

It is not mandatory to participate in the BAT in the form of a bowling team, as spectators are more than welcome and actually encouraged. The cost for adults, with a pay at the door option, is $25.00. You can find more details on attendance costs at the above website.

I sure hope that you can pass this information on to the Veronica Mars fans.

A fellow and devoted fan,

Lee Ann Gradwell

Good luck to those who may participate!

Confirmed: Kevin Smith on Veronica Mars!
On Friday, Wendy sent us the tip that it was heard on the radio that popular director Kevin Smith (of Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma, and Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back fame) might going to be showing up on an episode of Veronica Mars in Season 2, and that the episode would be filming "this week."

We can now confirm this. Kevin will be playing convenience store clerk Duane Anders in an episode airing on October 5. (For more Season 2 spoilers, click here)

For more on Kevin Smith, swing by News Askew.

Smith and his hetero lifemate sidekick Jason Mewes made appearances earlier this year on the Canadian cult teen series Degrassi: The Next Generation. Last season, Joey Lauren Adams, best known for Smith's movie "Chasing Amy," made an appearance on Veronica.

Veronica Mars Soundtrack Coming September 27?
We've just received some good news from a member of the band 46bliss. Their track "The Way You Are" was heard in the episode "The Silence of the Lamb."

Here's what they had to say:

We're trying to stay in touch with the various VM sites, as we're in indie band in NYC and the exposure and contact with VM fans has been fantastic for us.

The great news is that our song will be on the Veronica Mars Soundtrack CD, which we understand will be released on Sept. 27th, the day before the show's season premiere. We're going to do a show in New York to celebrate, and all fans are invited! Not sure who else is going to be on the album, but I do know it will be coming out on Nettwork Records.

Obviously this is news we weren't aware of here at Neptunesite prior to this, so we'll post more as soon as we know more. Even if September 27 doesn't turn out to be the date of release, it's exciting news that a Veronica soundtrack is coming, isn't it?

You can order the 46bliss album on Amazon.com by clicking here. A Veronica Mars soundtrack is not yet listed on the site. 46bliss also tells us that one of their songs, "In A Long Time," is available for free download here.

Fan Fundraiser For Kristen Bell's Favorite Charity
To celebrate the upcoming second season, a group of fans is raising money to benefit one of Kristen Bell's favorite causes - an animal shelter.

The East Valley animal shelter in North Hollywood is the recipient of the fan fundraiser, which has already collected over $200. But of course, that's not nearly enough!

Animal shelters are a cause that is near and dear to Kristen. She is a big believer in adopting animals from shelters. She even did a PSA urging people to adopt, instead of buy, their next pet. For much more information, and where to donate, visit the fundraiser page at MarsInvestigations.net!

Veronica Mars Season 1 Had A Backup Killer
No, nothing to do with Veronica's dog... some recent quotes at Zap2It.com (warning: season 1 finale spoilers) revealed that, if the guilty party of "who killed Lilly Kane" had been leaked onto the Internet or was known among fans, there was a backup plan for someone to be the killer - and that person would have been Duncan (Teddy Dunn).

"If I had to evolve it one more level, if there had to be one more twist -- and I think it would have been one twist too many -- it was that Duncan really did it and that he hadn't blacked out and that he was very aware of what he did and that he played his parents," creator Rob Thomas said at the site. "That was, had it leaked and I wanted to say, 'OK, new script pages,' which I think would have really bummed Teddy Dunn out."

Teddy was surprised to learn the news. "Really?" he said. "He never told me that. Thanks, Rob. That shows me how expendable I am on this show. Everybody can come and go. Nobody's above anything, except for Kristen."

Teddy did reveal that he did know more than most of the other cast members because of Duncan's role in the mystery. "It was fun to know some things that the other cast members didn't. I had Kristen going for a while that Rob had confided to me and only me who the murderer actually was and she was really pissed off."

Max Greenfield At WB Party
Max Greenfield (Deputy Leo) was spotted at the WB's 2005 TCA All-Star Party on Friday night, July 22. Neptunesite's Craig Byrne caught up with Max (a very cool guy by the way!) and was able to get some quotes from "Deputy Leo" himself. Here's what Max had to say:

"I will tell you this, from an outside perspective, I came in as an outsider and in the middle of the season, and they already built something that was really working so well. You know, they created in TV what they like to call a hit. They really created something, and obviously there's such a following for it, and to come in at the mid-season and reap kind of the benefit that they have created is always an odd situation, and there was not a person on that set that was not welcome and not the nicest people in the world."

Max had nice things to say about everyone, from Kristen all the way through to the grips, the PA's, and the entire staff. He said that Rob Thomas has been great about the possibility of leaving Deputy Leo in that "universe," and we shouldn't be surprised if we see him again on the show.

You can next see Max Greenfield on Modern Men, a new sitcom premiering on the WB in midseason. We'll let you know when we know of an air date.

Veronica Mars Season 1 Coming To DVD October 11!
Warner Home Video has announced that the first season of Veronica Mars will be available on DVD on October 11, 2005.

The Season 1 set includes an alternate version "creator's cut" of the TV pilot, plus 25 minutes of deleted scenes! Episodes will appear in 1.78 Widescreen transfers, which many of us didn't get to see on the original TV airings. (NOTE: We are hearing conflicting reports on widescreen vs. fullscreen. The Warner Video site claimed Widescreen, but some fans are reporting otherwise. Stay tuned!)

To your left you can take a look at the box art for the set. Keep in mind that it is subject to change.

Thanks to everyone who e-mailed us to tell us this news, and to TVShowsOnDVD.com who actually got the "scoop" by posting this information before the WHV press release came out.

Here's how Warner Home Video describes the first season:

"In the wealthy, seaside community of Neptune, California, the rich and powerful make the rules. Unfortunately for them, there's Veronica Mars, a smart, fearless 17-year-old apprentice private investigator dedicated to solving the town's toughest mysteries. Veronica used to be one of the popular girls, but it all came crumbling down around her after her best friend, Lilly, was murdered, and her then-sheriff father, Keith, was removed from office for naming Lilly's rich father as the lead suspect. During the day, Veronica must negotiate high school like any average teenage girl. But at night, she helps with her father's struggling, new private investigator business--and what she finds may tear the town of Neptune apart at the seams."

We'll let you know when the set is available to pre-order from Amazon.com and other online retail outlets.
