Default History Lessons Learned into Tonight's episode of Life on Mars about 1973

It was rare to see a Police Officer who was handsome

It was hard to find good coffee

Cream of Wheat was popular

Didn't need a search warrant to search someone's home

Peter, Paul, and Mary was a Popular Singing group

There was no such thing as Diet Coke


Can't wait until next week-lol

If I am not mistaken, Diet Coke didn't come out until the early 80's.

As for handsome cops, where was it said anywhere in the history books that there weren't any? LOL

Diet coke came out in 1982

I was analyzing the statement of the lady who asked the guy was he really a cop because he was not ugly-lol

Couldn't believe how badly they treated woman police officers. They called Officer Norris, "No Nuts Norris," lol. I liked the cell phone and computer jokes, too, but those are obvious for 1973 not to have.

I honestly thought that they could've done a better joke for that initial "I just need my cell" line,

I woulda had the cop say,

"ohhhhh, I see - well lets get you back to that padded cell then, why don't we?"
