So hopefully you all tuned in and watched last night's two-hour installment of Life on Mars (well, two back-to-back one-hour episodes anyway), so here's your chance to talk back about the second season opener.If you haven't yet seen the episodes in question, beware as there are spoilers lurking here.
(If you missed my advance review of the two episodes, click here to read.)
What was with that near-kiss between Annie and Sam? So tantalizingly close! I am happy, however, to see Annie join the CID as a plainclothes detective (a difference between the UK and potential US version, which already has Annie as a full detective when the pilot begins) as hopefully this will mean she finally gets a little bit of the respect she deserves.
One word: stinger.
I was completely stunned by that shocker of a telephone call in which Sam connected with the mysterious caller from Hyde, who promptly told him that he should not be contacting him as it's not part of "the plan." Hmmm, does this mean that Sam was intentionally sent back in time for a specific reason? And if so, who would be the people behind this and what is the connection to (A) the Colin Raimes serial killings investigation and/or (B) the car accident that left Sam for dead?
Theories, anyone?

Did you hear about the sequel Ashes to Ashes?
And the calls from Hyde are just....creepy. Totally creepy. I can't wait to see how this season unfurls!
