Revivals of popular and classic shows seems the trend of sorts these days where some of the most popular series from back then are either being planned to get revived or are already done. One such show that sparked interest right away from its announcement was Veronica Mars.

The show starring Kristen Bell was an absolute sensation back then going on to become a cult. And hence, it was announced that the show is being revived, it was certain to garner interest. The same is now official more than anything else as the trailer of the revival dropped recently and it now has a premiere date too.

The revival of the cult show will premiere on July 16 on Hulu with all its eight episodes available for streaming at once. Interestingly, the service will also be home to the show's original and previous three seasons and the 2014 feature film but a date for the same is yet to be announced.

Hulu released a brief promo for the show's return Friday, setting the stage and quickly re-establishing Veronica's (Kristen Bell) sardonic narration: "Spring break in Neptune: That means drunks, derelicts, flashers, frat boys, sorority vomit, pickpockets, bottomless drinks and topless dancers, street scum and beach bums," she says in voiceover. "And that's just the walk to my car."

Then, smiling at the camera and holding up a taser, Veronica adds, "Fortunately, I'm good to go."
