(Trivia)
Line 48:
* [[Modesty Bedsheet]] - A few instances, but the most baffling by far happens when a [[Hooker with a Heart of Gold]] seduces the protagonist by taking her bra off in front of him ([[Toplessness From the Back|with her back to the camera]]) and jumping into his bed. In the following sex scene she's enthusiastically bouncing away on top of him... with her bra put back on.
* [[Motifs]]: Many, most notably the little robots that see into your soul and the various rockets/spaceships seen in every single episode. Makes sense in the [[Grand Finale]].
* [[Name's the Same]]: As another connection between ''[[Doctor Who]]'' and ''Life on Mars'' franchise, Sam Tyler's mom is called Rose.
* [[Not Named in Opening Credits]] - Inverted, {{spoiler|with Lisa Bonet named in the finale despite not appearing in that episode...probably so as not to give away the show's ending}}.
* [[Prophecy Twist]] - that coma Sam got visions of throughout the first half of the season is not necessarily ''his''.
