Life on Mars: sublime

BBC America. Right now.

And it's yet another indicator of how much better the Brits do
television.

E Brent Price...

I wouldn't go that far, but I for one like the show. However, it's going to
get old fast. Time travel via struck pedestrian? Fish-out-of-water

Scooby...

Don't worry about it. Brit series last for but six episodes, they don't
string 'em out a la their Yank counterparts.

cop/buddy film? All this for one case/villain? They got some 'splainin' to
do fast.

RichA...

It is a good show. Maybe more stylized than a cop show from that era
(The Sweeney) but still very good. It's interesting watching how the
traveler
reacts to the decidedly non-P.C. attitudes displayed by the 1970s
policemen.

Frater Mus...

It's very good. Caught the first one then immediately set a Season
Pass.

Too bad Brits think that 6 or something is a season. :-P
