I'd compeletely disagree. I understand what you are saying in general, that the detective genre is supersaturated at the moment, but Life on Mars is completely fresh, and is fantastically written.
The writing itself is so good that its worth watching just for that, but when you combine it with the 1973 setting (which they milk perfectly for all its worth) with the time travel elements you have a very unique show.
To me its definitely a case where the "detective" part of the show is just there to give an excuse for all the great character interactions and stories.
Best detective show since Foyle's War ;) |
