So the US finale was dreamed up by someone who just saw the title and insisted on not seeing any of the UK series at all.

Pam Ewing is spinning in her grave!

Well, Ashes to Ashes is supposedly going to have a third series as Phil doesn’t want Gene going to the 90′s and Matthew would like the series continuing. And Gene/Alex is something we allegedly see continuing through to Series Two, so you never know with A2A.

Ashes to Ashes has me wondering… I loved the U.S. Life on Mars resolution. The BBC one… not so much. We’ll see.

I heartily disagree with you and I think chalking it up to a “dream” is a massive cop-out. How many weird things in life could be easily explained if only they were dreams? It’s the easy way out. And this intelligent show deserved better. I am one viewer who feels entirely unsatisfied– all those character relationships and developments that made me fall in love with this show are negated by the fact that they never “really” happened.

Also to Bob: I wonder that too. My theory– probably not the planned ending. I think the UK fans would be hugely upset if its spinoff show is also just a glitched dream.

The best series finale since the Newhart show……awesome….the writers worked it out perfectly. I wonder if this was the planned ending if the show had continued for a few years or if they thought about it after it was canceled?
