News on the American LoM:

Schlamme Helming New Mars

David E. Kelley has recruited The West Wing and Studio 60 helmer Thomas Schlamme to direct the pilot for his ABC time-travel drama Life on Mars, based on the BBC original show, Variety reported.

Schlamme will also executive-produce the pilot, which is in preproduction and slated to shoot sometime this summer. Kelley, Stephen Garrett and Jane Featherstone are also executive-producing.

Life on Mars is based on the BBC series of the same name, which revolved around a 21st-century detective (John Simm) who finds himself inexplicably thrust back into the 1970s, working on a case that may affect the future.

Casting on Kelley's Mars is under way. Rachelle LeFevre has already been set.

From Scifi Wire.

I (for some reason) didn't think that this show had been picked up.

Yes, that's the Pegasus movie. It's not a miniseries. They've said from the start that it would be 2 hours and air in the fall.

There is some casting info for the Pegasus movie up at the IMDB.

And isn't it odd that LoM-US has cast Annie but nobody else?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Hey, she was Marjorie on VM! I like her.

Life on Mars is based on the BBC series of the same name, which revolved around a 21st-century detective (John Simm) who finds himself inexplicably thrust back into the 1970s, working on a case that may affect the future.

You know, that was one interesting thread from the pilot that I thought they would explore more.

I (for some reason) didn't think that this show had been picked up.

Well, it's on the fall schedule, which makes sense since the pilot hasn't been shot yet.

The redheaded sorority girl that befriended Veronica in "My Big Fat Greek Rush Week."

I thought it was pretty well resolved.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Me too.

Well, yeah. I guess it was. I guess I was just expecting more stuff in that vein or something.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

The last episode of S1 was in the same vein, sort of. And the one with his future mentor. And the one with the future mobster.
