Nuts worked for "Jericho" — now, will Mars Bars save "Veronica Mars"?
Some fans certainly hope so: They're sending more than 6,000 candy bars to CW headquarters and to network president Dawn Ostroff directly, hoping the sweets will grant their favorite show a reprieve. They say they've already bought all the Mars Bars available in the United States, along with several thousand Snickers Almond bars and more than 400 pounds of marshmallows. (Granted, it's no 20 tons of peanuts — but, well, you know how much a marshmallow weighs.) Fans who want to go in on a group shipment from The Indian Food Store have until 3 p.m. Central time today to donate.
Frankly, I'd be amazed if another show gets saved by truckloads of food this season. We'll know by Friday, the final deadline for all CW programming decisions. In the meantime, I sure hope Ostroff likes candy.

Maybe Soprano fans can get a better season finale by sending HBO tons of cannoli, onion rings and any kind of Italian food
