Anyone find season 2 online yet?

No. Why? Is it?

Dunno. I was looking for it, but someone around here usually finds it before I do.

Still nothing from BBC America about when they'll show it but I did find this on wikipedia

QuoteBetween July 24 and September 11, 2006, the first series aired in the US on BBC America, to favourable critical reviews. The American version is edited for the insertion of commercials and omits some nudity and language that is present in the original BBC One version.

And

QuoteIn December 2006, it was reported that the BBC had commissioned a Life on Mars spin-off series, to be titled Ashes to Ashes after another David Bowie song of the same name. The Times reported that this spin-off would pick up the lives of Gene Hunt and other characters from the series in 1981.

More Gene Hunt = Dance Party USA in my pants. Awesome.

AWESOME.

It's nice, for once, to be on the right side of the pond.  I can pre-order the Series 2 DVD already, to be delivered in six weeks...

Now you boys know how I feel the rest of the time.  You Yanks don't have it so bad, believe me.
Your toilet's broken, Dave, but I fixed it.

Really, really jonesing for this thing to come out over here.  They just replayed the first season on BBC America, and the opening scene time-switch with Bowie playing in the background -- that's about as moved as I'll get by a TV show.

Has anyone else watched Series 2? Without giving away the ending, I'm wondering what others thought of it.

News on the American version.  Lenny Clarke is going to play one of the cops (not The Gov).

http://thetrack.bostonherald.com/moreTrack/view.bg?articleid=1016870

Colm Meaney is going to play the American version of The Gov.

Which I can absolutely see.  http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000538/

I just can't bring myself to watch Season Two of the original online.  I need it on my TV.  Oh, well.

Colm Meaney is exactly whom the Gov reminded me of when I first started watching the show.  AZZ KICKR.
