You have to murder your darlings... I always respected the BBC for only making 2 series of Life On Mars. I'd have liked it even better if they'd only made 1 (not because I didn't like it, but it just didn't need any more added). Yes but they then went on to make Ashes to Ashes which apart from Gene and the Quattro, was a pile of poo. I think, in a way, that supports my point.

I do know what you mean, Jim (incidentally, great to see you here!), but I have never watched the early series in any order, so I possibly saw it more as a new thing than a (flawed) progression. I'm fully intending to get a box set at some point and work through it, at which point I may agree with you!
Utopia tonight... Hello Jim. Just popped back for some Being Human conversation. You are not going to try and persuade me to buy another brand new I am Kloot album again are you? ...Peruses other threads... Yes, you are going to!

This new series is VERY dark and I am really enjoying it. Captain Hatch is one of the best villains I have seen on TV for a long time (Jack Nicholson as the Joker in Batman is the best, but he doesn't count as it is an old film). Having the new characters kill themselves every episode is a trifle repetitive but I can't wait for the next one!

Yes, you are going to! Not that I have to try too hard, I'll wager!

Yup. I was worried how it would go without George, Mitchell and Annie, but Tom, Hal and Alex have been great.
I think, in truth, I preferred the previous series, but this one is building up nicely to an epic show-down, as befits the very last episode ever of what has been a marvelous programme.

I agree - a great end to the series. Sorry to see it go, but glad that the last episode managed to be funny, scary and touching. All the things that made the series brilliant.
