Life On Mars US version episode 2

Getting better. The actors seem to have settled down a bit. Quite enjoying it so far. Still borrowing from the original, not a bad thing in itself, still a paler imitation but somehow more atmospheric than the original. Manchester could never be as glamourous as New York. Watch out for the scene where he meets his next door neigbour for the first time back at his apartment. They cross paths en-route to the shared bathroom and she's gorgeous and totally naked in an unselfconscious hippyish sort of way. Just wouldn't happen in Manchester.

Still poor acting by the central character. Not bad at all really. Just lacks a better script and a better Sam Tyler. Although the script does seem to be improving.
