Please click on the link above and let's get viewership for LOM's return on Wednesday, January 28th.

Update: I just logged into the Inner Circle, and this will be of particular interest to "Life on Mars" fans.

Join us for a live Executive Session on Thursday, December 18th at 3 pm PT/6 pm ET where we will be joined by Charlie Bowyer, Executive Creative Director of On-Air Promos, Drama and Movies. Charlie oversees all the promos for ABC's hit dramas, including LOST, PRIVATE PRACTICE, and LIFE ON MARS.

This is your opportunity to chat one-on-one with Charlie, and ask him YOUR questions about the ABC marketing campaigns you currently see on TV. He'll provide insight into the day-to-day workings of a network Marketing & Promotion department. And you can ask him what's in store from your favorite ABC dramas!

Join us for the live Session Thursday, December 18th at 3pm PT/6pm ET.

Be sure to save the date, Charlie and the ABC team are looking forward to chatting with you!

I hope many of you will be able to attend and it's free to join. Also, under "Discussions", you'll find a topic for the series.

http://www.abcinnercircle.com/app

I've been enjoying Scott Rosenberg, Josh Appelbaum, André Nemec, and Jonathan Murphy's new ABC series "Life on Mars". It takes elements of "Lost" and "October Road" and mixes it in with a '70s cop show and "homage" to the original "Life on Mars".

Let everyone you know to tune into "Life on Mars" by sending these e-cards:
