Tiny, blonde, cute as a bug.
Kristen Bell is in InStyle this month.
The shot that caught my eye was this one. Paradise Cove is where Jim Rockford's trailer sat in all but the earliest episodes of The Rockford Files, one of the true classics of television and a show to which Veronica Mars owes a debt or two.
The Paradise Cove pier seen behind Veronica will be familiar to viewers of Rockford. If you've never seen The Rockford Files, it's finally started to emerge on DVD. To known it is to love it. In the first season, you get about a five-minute scene of P.I. Jim Rockford driving around a large parking lot to elude a tail. Five minutes of pure set-up for the scene where Rockford, outside the lot now, speeds off—inducing the tail to drive over the "severe tire damage" spikes. You would never see that kind of patient build up in a show today. You'd probably get about 30 seconds at most, with a JRVO demanded by the network. Alas.
