Life on Mars time travelling vs. coma
Okay, I say Sam's time travelling, not in a coma. The coma stuff is hallucinations.
I reckon that Sam is in fact reinforcing history every moment he's there, and several events of Young!Sam's life (ie, his memories) were actually caused by Sam. (this shall now be referred to as the Twelve Monkeys theory of time travel)
The serial killer : Sam caught him in the first place, but he still gets out to kill again because of that whole 'life doesn't mean life' thing. Plus, possibility that the wee nutter that lived next door is somehow helping the killer in current day. (fixated on him after the hand wave we see)
Last ep : Sam told his mum what to say to Young!Sam.
Responsible for Vic going on the run. Also responsible for Annie turning up in the first place, because if Sam hadn't been with Vic pre-and-post shootings (and let him get away), Gene would've locked him up or kept him in custody - either way, not have been present at the wedding, and Annie wouldn't have been put on surveillance at the wedding.
Also? Sam was the one that found the evidence that led them to the Victoria Park. Vic probably wouldn't have run at the time he did if it wasn't for the law closing in on him. Sam's fixation on Vic only helped Gene build a case against him, thus law closing in, etc.
The Warren ep : Sam brought Warren down, thus creating the vacuum for 'The Morton brothers', aka Sam's dad.
Annie involvement : Sam's first fixation on Annie - thus bringing her to Gene's attention and fixing her place in the CID mob - meant that she's on more ops with the CID lot. Ups the chances of her being used on any of their cases, which includes the plainclothes stuff.
There is other stuff and other ramblings, but suffice it to say that I don't think that even Sam's brain-in-coma would have got so many little things to gel and culminate.
