"Life on Mars"... is there a thread for this?

[Suzie Zoo]

I tried searching and I came up with nothing. But I know people must have watched this, right?

 

[swkmom]

I watched it and really liked it. It's pretty weird but I'm just hoping it does not get cancelled, seems like every time I like a show it gets cancelled.

 

[Handbag Lady]

Yeah, I'm afraid that because I really like this show, it will get cancelled too!




I hope it stays.

 

[Suzie Zoo]

Yeah, I'm loving it!!! Hmmm... now I sound like a McDonald's commercial

The scene where Sam looks up and sees the Twin Towers was chilling. And I {{{love}}} the music!

I know this is an adaptation of a BBC show, and I think so far so good! And Jason O'Mara is yummy! Can't wait to see what happens next!

I LOVED it!!!! I graduated h.s. in 1972....watching that with my 22yo DS I was laughing at things like ..."my desk and computer were right here"... umm we had NO computers like we do today back in '73.

I will say the scene with the Twin Towers about freaked my family as we watched it....as my DH worked at the WTC at the time of the bombing.

I hope the show lasts.

I live in the UK. The original version set here was fantastic. Lots of great songs and memories if like me you remember the seventies.lol.

There is a follow up set in the 80's called 'ashes to ashes'

I liked it but thought it was remarkably similar to a show from last season that was cancelled. I'm not sure why this one will succeed where the other one didn't. The other show had a guy who was married to a tv reporter and the guy kept going back and forth from past to present.

 

[MAKmom]

I loved this & 15 million people watched.

I was talking about this at a wedding this weekend. My 43 year old cousion did not pick up on them calling the woman cop No Nuts

It was really like this back than.

 

[TimeforMe]

Yes, I watched it and enjoyed it very much. Is this on tonight?

 

[CourtasanSatine]

Wedensday night (and I was pretty guilty of trying to spot one of the UK actors due to watching a ton of Doctor Who)

 

[Suzie Zoo]

Thursday nights at 10 on ABC.. I recorded it and just watched it a couple hours ago.

 

[wdw4life]

I watched it and enjoyed it. As a child in the '70's I have a fondness for shows set during that time.

Me too, I had the song; Willie willie willie won't go home....stuck in my head for 2 days afterwards! Hope it stays awhile....the one with Christian Slater is on tonight at 10 opposite Boston Legal. So, I am DVR-ing Boston!

Wait, the show is on tonight??? I thought Suzie said Thursdays!!

 

[Suzie Zoo]

I think she meant Christian Slater's show (My Own Worst Enemy) and Boston Legal are both on tonight.... Mars is definitely on Thursday night.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.........I'm an idiot.....ok, I thought she meant that there was a "Life on Mars" starring CS and I may have missed it....but now that is actually impossible as last week's was the Season Premier!!

Ok, Suzie, thanks for clarifying that for me!!!

North side, east side
Little Willy, Willy wears the crown, he's the king around town
Dancing, glancing
Willy drives them silly with his star shoe shimmy shuffle down
Way past one, and feeling alright
'Cause with little Willy round they can last all night
Hey down, stay down, stay down down

'Cause little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy round
Willy won't go, try tellin' everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won't go home

Up town, down town
Little Willy, Willy drives them wild with his run-around style
Inside, outside
Willy sends them silly with his star-shine shimmy shuffle smile
Mama done chase Willy down through the hall
But laugh, Willy laugh, he don't care at all
Hey down, stay down, stay down, down

'Cause little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy round
Willy won't go, try tellin' everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won't go home

Little Willy, Willy won't
Willy won't, Willy won't
Little Willy, Willy won't
Willy won't, Willy won't
Little Willy, Willy won't
Willy won't, Willy won't
Little Willy, Willy won't
Willy won't, Willy won't

Little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy round
Willy won't go, try tellin' everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won't go home

Little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy round
Willy won't go, try tellin' everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won't go home
