Its a remake of a BBC series which is awesome.

Interesting.  Curious to know if it will always be set in 1973 or they will have forward flashes back to 2008.  Otherwise GF will just be a voice on the radio.  Jury still out on this one.  Too early to tell.

I saw it and i'm still unsure about it the 2nd half was much better than the first though.

well ive seen the Uk version and i loved it it has really  hilariously funny bits..  Theres 2 seasons of Life on mars uk.
and 2 seasons of the sequel Ashes to ashes. (get it?)

I've also seen the us pilot /pre air episode . The pilot was set in LA and apart from sam and maya all the actors actresses are different.
I liked it better. Instead of Harvey keitel it was that irish guy who was in startrek next gen and ds9.

I hope this version get funnier because the humour in the UK version was what made it.

I missed the U.S.version, but I LOVED the British original.

I wasn't really impressed much.  Don't see how they'll keep their audience.

I tried to watch the episode last night, and like most shows that I loved the BBC Version, I was pretty disappointed in this one. The supporting cast was great, but the leads just seemed wooden.
