ABC has announced that its generally crappy and ratings-challenged sci-fi cop series “Life On Mars” won’t get a second season.
The good news for fans is the network is letting the show’s producers end with an episode explaining how the lead character, a 2008 cop, wound up in 1973.
(SPOILER!! In the British version of “Life On Mars,” the cop wakes up from a coma in the final episode, but discovers he liked it better in 1973 and decides to commit suicide – which somehow returns him to the past.)
“Mars” producers Josh Appelbaum, Andre Nemec and Scott Rosenberg, who were also behind ABC’s horrible “October Road,” will turn their attention to the ABC pilot “Happy Town.”
