Fifteen Favorite Things I Watched in 2010 | 8. Life on Mars / Ashes to Ashes
It didn’t seem right to separate these two shows and rank one above the other. I’ve heard the stories of Sam Tyler and Alex Drake likened to a British version of LOST - they share a similar brand of mystery, intrigue, and time-travel-y weirdness. I started watching Life on Mars after falling for John Simm in Doctor Who, and it was an excellent decision. Gene Hunt is one of the more interesting characters I’ve ever seen on TV - he’s brash, hilarious, and I really came to respect his views on the law despite the prejudices of the time that he illustrates so well. Both series are expert in balancing the procedural “case of the week” and the serial “WTF is going on here?!”. Life on Mars concludes with perhaps the best series finale I’ve seen for any show, and while I was sad to see Sam’s story come to a close, I had come to love Gene, Ray, and Chris enough that I couldn’t wait to get back to them in the 80s. Alex Drake is wonderful and strong, and the Ashes finale helped tie up the continuing story of both series. It’s well written, the soundtrack is superb, and it’s absolutely worth the watch if you haven’t yet had the pleasure.
