Hey people! So finally our favorite show, Life on Mars, has aired its final episode. The short journey of the US version of this hit British series came to an end in the first week of April, when the final episode of Season 1 was aired. However, not everyone is happy with the way the series ended and the fans of the show are divided over whether this was the perfect ending or the show could have done better.

Some people have liked the ending given to Life on Mars while others have termed it to be the worst kind of ending a series could get. The ending, which revealed the entire show to be no more than a computer simulation going on in Sam’s mind, is completely different from the ending given to the original British version in 2007, where Sam wakes up from a coma to discover a new life.

Personally I felt the writers could give a much better ending to the show than what we saw in the final episode. Like me, millions of eager fans tuned in, in large numbers to watch the much anticipated season finale of Life on Mars and it is really sad that they were totally disappointed by what they saw. One of my friends, Nichole, who is a great fan of Life on Mars, told me that she did not at all like the way the show ended and felt cheated about all characters and their relationships with each other.

But whether you liked the ending or not, the fact remains that Life on Mars has finally bid farewell to its fans on the American cable network. The show which could have been one of the best shows on the American cable network was cancelled only after it completed airing Season 1. But given the way in which the show ended, I feel that had it continued, it would perhaps have grown into a horrible show during its second season. So its better that the show ended at a time when we can still remember it as a great show. And who knows, maybe the show might still be revived later by a better team of writers!
