Anyone excited about the Harper's Island premier tomorrow?

If you're looking for a really good show, check out "Ashes To Ashes" on BBC America on Saturdays. It's the sequel to the British (original) version of "Life On Mars". A female police detective is shot in 2008 and wakes up in 1983 in the same job. Many of the characters she works with were also characters in "Life On Mars".

I wonder if they'll have a US version of this like they had of the other series? That would be really cool.

The Series finale of Corner Gas is this coming Monday night.

They want to go out on top, but many think there are still 2 seasons left.

Well, the US version of "Live on Mars" was a very interesting show but was canceled...and, to close it out, they tacked on a really goofy ending on a set reminding me of Star Trek (orignal)....an ending that seems like was put together by a bunch of high school kids in 15 minutes.

Doubt they'll do a sequel.

I'm excited to see it get canceled after 2 episodes.

Then we won't know who took everyone out, one by one.

Originally I was mildly interested in seeing that show, but my interest is waning with each addtional commercial. I understand the need for promotion, but I've already been overexposed to the point where I don't care if I see it or not.
