Notes[]
- This episode is almost totally original to the US version of the series, but borrows the concept of Sam's recently deceased black mentor and a few other elements from the second episode of the British series' second season. Sam's mentor is named Glen Fletcher in the British version.
- The title of the episode is based on the 1995 movie Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead, which was written and associate produced by Scott Rosenberg, the executive producer of Life on Mars (US), and directed by Gary Fleder, the director of the first episode of the series.
