Dear David E. Kelly:
Nov. 25th, 2006 11:32 amSince I'm way behind on Entertainment Weekly, I only just now discovered that you are planning to create an American remake of Life on Mars.
Please stop right now.
Life on Mars is as close to a perfect crime show as you can find on TV nowadays.
You, on the other hand, are as flawed a producer as one can find. If I'm feeling generous, I'd say that you haven't done anything worthwhile on the small screen since season 1 of Ally McBeal. I'm usually more inclined to harken back to Picket Fences, however.
Given the combined creative oomph shown in Girl's Club, The Brotherhood of Poland, N.H., Boston Public, and Snoops, I have no reason to expect anything good out of your attempt to remake LiM.
