Life on Mars is about a modern day cop who finds himself suddenly in 1973. And guess what he finds in 1973 (well other than a ton of synthetic fabric)? GRETCHEN MOL! This has to be the biggest discovery since they reanimated Teri Hatcher's corpse for Desperate Housewives. 
And because you value my opinion so much-
I thought the premiere was pretty good. I am actually going to go as far as saying that it was by far the best new premiere this season. Unfortunately that's not really saying much. Though I am going to give kudos to the writers/producers for having a scene where you actually believe a cop is going to bust a cap in a kid for the sake of future humanity. I also will give a high five to Jason O'Mara for being hot in a Less-Ginger-than-Kevin McKidd way. Plus who doesn't love Pre-Gentrification New York?
Though I really wish they would have changed the name of the show because most Americans do not have a working knowledge of David Bowie's discography. Brits do. It's part of their birthright along with an affinity for manpris.
Stumble It!
