The series, which was announced in January, will air on Sept. 13 on the network’s digital-only channel CW Seed and will have eight episodes. The plot is pretty meta: each of the actors will be playing “versions” of their characters from the original show as well as exaggerated versions of their real selves, [according to](http://www.buzzfeed.com/jarettwieselman/the-whole-veronica-mars-gang-is-coming-back-for-a-new-webser "undefined") _BuzzFeed_. “The web series will have more in common with _Party Down_ tonally,” creator Rob Thomas [told HitFix](http://www.hitfix.com/starr-raving/veronica-mars-to-get-digital-spin-off "undefined") in January, referring to the Starz TV comedy he worked on after _Veronica Mars_, “but it will be about Ryan Hansen, or at least a version of Ryan Hansen, deciding to capitalize on the current _Veronica Mars_ heat to get his own series on the air. He’ll try to pull his actor pals into the venture with varying degrees of success.” Ryan Hansen is set to return as the spoiled Dick, Kristen Bell as detective Veronica Mars and Jason Dohring as her bad boy love interset Logan Echolls. Enrico Colantoni and Percy Daggs III will also be back as Veronica’s dad Keith Mars and Veronica’s best friend Wallace, respectively. Francis Capra will reprise his roll as Eli “Weevil” Navarro, Daran Norris as Cliff McCormack and Kyle Gallner as Cassidy “Beaver” Casablancas. The original show about the teen detective aired on UPN and then the CW from 2004 to 2007\. A successful Kickstarter campaign funded a film followup to the show that was released in theaters and through video on demand in March. \[[_BuzzFeed_\]](http://www.buzzfeed.com/jarettwieselman/the-whole-veronica-mars-gang-is-coming-back-for-a-new-webser "undefined") ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3108215/veronica-mars-web-series/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3108215/veronica-mars-web-series/"},"headline":"Veronica Mars Web Spinoff Will Premiere Sept. 13","datePublished":"2014-08-13T16:48:30.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T09:39:00.238Z","description":"All the key actors are back for the series Play It Again, Dick","url":"https://time.com/3108215/veronica-mars-web-series/","keywords":["Television"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltb34a4f58b254a2a1/69869f64810bbb3cd9c92fe8/upload.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Eliana Dockterman","jobTitle":"Correspondent","url":"https://time.com/author/eliana-dockterman/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltb34a4f58b254a2a1/69869f64810bbb3cd9c92fe8/upload.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"upload","caption":"Ryan Hansen as Dick Casablancas and Kristen Bell as Veronica Mars in 'Veronica Mars'","creditText":"Warner Bros.","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3108215/veronica-mars-web-series/","name":"Veronica Mars Web Spinoff Will Premiere Sept. 13"}}]}] ```
