WTF???

So is he back in a coma after jumping off the roof then?

or when he walked to the light did he even wake up in 2006/7??

I had read that the writers said they would give it a clear cut ending so that they could not make a new series. All they did was drive off. That clearly leaves it open for more??

My head hurts after watching that!

Well I hope he never goes back to the present time, and i doubly I hope we have a new totally un-PC cop show with those 5.

That wouldn't have thrown any cats anywhere. Virtually everyone has worked through that scenario in their heads or in forum threads like this one almost since the first series started. It would hardly have been an original ending.

They have ended it in such a way that it is going to be *extremely* difficult to explain it without leaving any loose ends. Honest, this is a classic. I predict the 'Life on Mars question' will become a modern TV phenomenon.

My thinking so far hinges on the DCI/Surgeon. Who was more believable as a 'real' person? DCI Frank Morgan or Mr Frank Morgan?

I never said there was.

However the creater had said the ending would mean there was no chance of it returning!

Take the 'what if' sci fi element out if it as that's now over and what have you left, the 'Sweeney', and that's already been done.

It would be very difficult for it to return as we now know the one of tow possibilities for the conundrum as to why he was there. Which you choose to believe is up to you. He was in a coma, and has jumped back into it, or he had amnesia, and was dreaming of the future. Neither needs further explanation.

It might not have been an original ending but it would have left more questions and imagination. And as for being extremely difficult to explain, bringing someone from deep within Tyler's mind in to reality, wouldn't that be difficult to explain, instead of "oh, he's back in another coma"?

Dreaming of the future? He must be a prophet if that was the case then. Explain Robocop et al.

A tidbit lifted from a forum Mrs T frequents:

Quote:
Frank Morgan played the Wizard of Oz in the 1939 film. Gene has nicknamed Sam 'Dorothy' before now... And someone else has already mentioned that Ray needs a heart, Chris needs a brain, Annie needs courage and Sam needs to get home.
:spin:

Hence he called him 'Dorethy' in the last episode.

This is sci fi. Take your pick from 1,001 possible solutions, or invent your own and make it 1,002. :D
