Mars to America

The next American remake of a British show is going to be Life on Mars.

Everything I've heard about this series from the BBC is gold, and I'm hopeful that the original version makes it over here at some point. I hope that the American remake to be good, as I certainly think this is a concept that could work really well for this country as well.

And hopefully, ABC is the station to do it -- I'd hope for something with the aesthetic of a Lost or Alias -- though David E. Kelley doesn't really strike me as right for this project, as he tends towards legal dramas and not a weird police drama like this. But perhaps he wants something different.
