Life on Mars Canned by ABC

[Emperor]

ABC has announced that its generally crappy and ratings-challenged sci-fi cop series “Life On Mars” won’t get a second season.

 

The good news for fans is the network is letting the show’s producers end with an episode explaining how the lead character, a 2008 cop, wound up in 1973.

 

(SPOILER!! In the British version of “Life On Mars,” the cop wakes up from a coma in the final episode, but discovers he liked it better in 1973 and decides to commit suicide – which somehow returns him to the past.)

Good. I tried to like this show, and occasionally I did, but mostly it made me cringe and want to disappear into the floor.  :P

I gave up on it two episodes ago.

 

I did notice BBC america giving us Ashes to Ashes... Do you Brits like it?

 

And CADDY!  Nice to see ya.

Hi! Sorry, school has been busy, and I was out of town the past few days. ^_^

Wait... out of town.... wait....

[Cadsuane]

OMG. OMG. DIDN'T I TELL YOU!?!?!?!?!  I went to see... Mitra. In Los Angeles.  ;D

I like it for the kick-ass music they play throughout the episodes... I could take it or leave it for the story.

[Emperor]

The music kind of ruined it for me.  It felt cheesy....

Really? To me, it just felt like they were having some fun with the concept of the show.
