A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
Sam gets back to 2008 but can't deal so he jumps off a roof.
You can decide if he winds up in 1973 or not.
that's not entirely the end. he jumps off the roof and then we have him back in 1973 where he left off. he saves Annie, Gene, Chris and Ray. then he and Annie kiss they all continue to fight crime. i didn't love the UK ending, but it was miles better than the US.
Oh, that's right.
But in 2008, he's in a coma and then he dies and he has also died in 1981 - because it's 7 years later. But it wasn't 7 years later in 2008.
Confusing.

The intention of the creators was that it was all in his head and that everything that happens to him in 1973 after he jumps off the roof happens in the instant before he dies from the impact.
My problem with the UK ending wasn't that he jumped, but that it seemed to be presented as a reasonable action. Whereas my reaction was "Oh boo hoo! Police work in 2006 involves too many bureaucratic meetings. Life was so much more interesting in 1973 so I'm going to jump off a roof!" Gimme a break. I get that he was depressed, but that's what therapy is for.
Ahahaha, I remember this debate well back when it originally aired.
I am much less emotionally involved by now, thank god. Man, I was so pissed at that ending.

I was just mostly confused.
Also, obligatory "I loved the Life on Mars ending and don't really care what the creators say" post.
Yes - that was the ending.
BUT, the second to last shot shows the crew in their astronaut space walk suits getting ready to step onto Mars. The last shot is a white loafered foot stepping onto that red, red ground.
