ABC’s “Life on Mars” Cancelled
It’s the end of the road for ABC’s “Life on Mars” – the network has canceled the show after just one season.
“Life on Mars” stars Jason O’Mara as a 2008 detective working as a cop in 1973 New York. Guess the time travel concept was not such a hit.
Life on Mars’ fans will at least get to see a series finale – an episode was written to tie up the first year’s loose ends, including an explanation of how Jason O’Mara’s character was transported back in time.
Life on Mars co-stars Harvey Keitel, Michael Imperioli and Gretchen Mol.

Life on Mars is a show that not only entertains but, also provides twists and turns with a challenge for intriguing thought on the part of the viewer. The ever evolving thought of time travel and influencing the future for the better has been an item that has brought entertainment to the movie and television viewers for decades. In this series there is an appeal to the baby boomer generation that bring the good things in life, and the bad in some cases, from the past to the forefront of our current day lives. The show also has a way of showing us, even if the outcome is not as we expected, or a rosy as we remember, life goes on and we get through it all.
With the looming world economic crisis and wars that affect the lives of so many, here you have given us a view of how our generation got through what we viewed as our toughest times. With the Star Trek SCI-FI twist, and the passion and emotion of M.A.S.H., you have opened a door to the past for our children to understand the world their parents grew up in. To remove this show from production would truly be a shame.

I agree with the first post. ”life” gave gen-xers a glimpse into a world that they were too young to remember. great acting, brilliant writing, and an accurate 1970’s nuance make this must see tv. abc must reconsider cancellation. what can diehard fans do????
