My God, they killed Life On Mars!

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

No Bowie song. Different year. Looks like they've convoluted the plot to try and recreate the event that took the real Tyler back in time.

They should've changed the names. Tyler, Hunt, series title, etc.

On the (very small, almost insignificant) plus side, Colm Meaney would seem like a good choice for a Hunt.

Yeah... though apparently in the pilot Gene gets beaten by Sam in fisticuffs, which we just know would never happen.

The pain continues:

I hope American Mars doesn't get past its pilot.

Journeyman, on the other hand, sounds as though it would have been interesting.

McSpaced didn't, so there's always hope.

Looks like they chucked it all away and started again, seemingly a lot closer to the UK version...

And you cannot deny that [composite word including 'f*ck'] harvey keitel looks mental as Gene...

Yep, they went back to the drawing board. Gene looked the least of its problems tho.
