[<\/strong>\u00a0\"Confused\" Mood:<\/strong> Confused\u00a0]<\/strong>
\nJust seen the first episode in the US remake of Life on Mars. It was pretty much a word for word remake of the British version.<\/p>\n

Apart from the obvious differences in location and American references to the Seventies, the main difference was that there was no Chris. Writing him out of the series maybe allows them to save the 10 minutes or so that they need for ad breaks.<\/p>\n
