ABC has ordered 13 episodes of "Life on Mars," the BBC series about a 21st century detective who is mysteriously transported to the 1970s. The lead is Jason O'Mara.
Created by David E. Kelley, who also owns the rights, the pickup was part of Kelley's negotiations to keep his dramedy "Boston Legal" on the air.
The cast of "Life On Mars" includes Lenny Clarke, Rachelle Lefevre and Colm Meaney.
