There's a starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow out minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
He told me,
"Let the children use it
Let the children lose it
Let all the children boogie"

This was a great episode. Interesting mystery, lots of humor, and a nice way to tie everything up at the end.

Solid episode for sure and easily getting better week to week... however I'm trying not to get too attached because the ratings have been sinking like a stone.

Really? That sucks. I assume the season finale's been filmed by now. I wonder if it'll end on a cliffhanger (regarding Sam getting back home) or if they wrap things up nicely, should this show not get renewed. I have a feeling it'll be the former.

I think im the only one then that thinks this show went downhill after its hiatus..it could take place in any era at this point and it just seem to ahve a cheesy feel to it now..as with most ABC shows
I do want to check out the orignal version of this show though

are people really not watching this show? i know the ratings are tanking and the show is headed for cancellation, but it is so good. too bad.
also, i am sure this was discussed, but were last week's and this week's episode out of order? this one seemed like it should have followed the one where he did Maggie Siff in the station...

I was really into this ep right up until they came back from break, after he went back to the Marsh area. I was also kinda "WTF?" about the "explanation" for what happened. It was still a good ep though.

"Life on Mars" Beats Originals of "CSI: NY" and "Law & Order" in Men 18-34
Up in Men 18-34 for the 2nd Week in a Row, "Life on Mars" Hits a Series High and ABC's Best Number in the Time Slot with Regular Programming Since October 2007

Great episode, I'm liking this show more as they intersperse the detective work with Sam trying to find out why he's there. I thought they focused too much on the former in previous episodes.

ABC aired the episodes out of order after the break. this week's should have been the first one back after Tyler's closet hook-up. Episode 109 "Dark Side of the Mook" after the hiatus, 1/28/09. Episode 108 "Take a Look at the Lawmen should have been on 2/4/09. Even ABC's website hasn't revised the screw-up.
