Variety reports that David E. Kelley is developing an American version of the hit BBC series LIFE ON MARS, about a cop who is in a near-fatal car wreck and wakes up in 1973. Has he really traveled back in time? Is he dreaming it? Or is he dead? Only the creators of the show and David Kelley know for sure. There was an interesting tid-bit in the article, though…apparently, BOSTON LEGAL is "on the bubble" for renewal.
The BBC series was excellent, raised lots of interesting issues and questions.
Excellent series.
The BBC (ie original version) has been picked up by BBC America so you’ll get to see it before the American version.
