Most refreshing plot I've seen in a long while. Absolutely recommended!

I started watching Awake at 9am and finished all episodes at 10pm the same day. That's just to tell you of how gripping this show is and how much of a shame it is that it got cancelled.

Jason Isaacs' acting is beyond reproach, the story is intriguing and interesting, humane, real and fictious at the same time. That's just part of the duality of Awake. The change of color tones, partners, realities, and all of the rest amounts to a great jump between worlds and you'll find yourself questioning everything as you move along.

The good thing is that the last episode ended as a way that gives closure, not a lot of it, but enough for the viewers who invested in it to be able to move on. And even though none of the endings in each world are 100% satisfying, there's solace in knowing that he has the benefits of both.

@khouryrt Did it give closure or did it reveal that he was really the only one that died?

WHAT!? Are you serious?
No, c'mon... I was just starting to really love this show!

I mean why? Because you had to use a little bit of brain to follow?
I am pissed that people of the main-stream are only clever enough to be able to follow shows were every episode is excatly the same - like: CIS, Bones, and $#!t. But good for them that these kind of series are running endless.

I hate to see "Awake" having the same destiny as "Day Break" & "Life" which were also great shows.
Screw you NBC, but thanks for the season!

@benfranklin "Day Break" & "Life" are two of the best shows I've ever seen. You have great taste!

Great show.
The ending is perfect too, as I see it, he wasn't just asleep the whole time, but he created a third reality where his whole family is alive.
But that's just my own interpretation

This was a fantastic performance. My favorite scenes were with the psychiatrist sessions in both realities. A must see for anyone who loves a great story, strong plot and a scifi edge.

This was the most intriguing show I have seen in a while. I absolutely enjoyed every second. The whole concept of the story is great. At times it reminded me of "Life on Mars" which I also loved to watch. Great cast altogether. Personally I am satisfied with the ending it gives a form of closure but also leaves something open to imagination. I guess it would have been a different ending had it not been cancelled.
I don't understand why people can turn in to crap reality shows each and every week yet you didn't find enough viewers for really good story telling.

@finfan i love the casting in this also, and maybe this was a rhetorical statement of "i dont understand", but. ..... i think reality tv is cheaper, in a lot of ways, so many less important people to pay? Im guessing this part. Producers, casting directors, the actors, writers, directors etc.... And then the money for scenes.... You likely have so much less overhead for most reality shows - there isn't much to them. Yeah they have some of these things, but they aren't the same - not by a mile<br /> <br /> sadly most people want to turn off their brain when watching a lot of tv - and 98% of "reality" tv is extremely low-effort watching trash... On the other hand I understand why it might also be difficult to always tune in to something like this (Awake) - exhaustion (lol), being a parent/inability to devote all of their attention so they are able to understand what's happening, etc. <br /> <br /> I know at least for me, I have chronic pain which is often so severe that it makes it too hard to think - and the many different meds one has to take in this situation dull your cognitive abilities on top of that. So even when I really really enjoy a show like this (and I do), it's difficult to keep up with it every time, and - it's the kind of show where it's easy to forget what's been going on if you take even a small break from it, just because there's so much going on. I still prefer this any day over most reality garbage though.<br /> <br /> Just thought I might offer _some_ reasons... Other than people's heads being full of nothing but air, which quite obviously a large amount of them are :person_shrugging:

awesome show, shame it is gone. Really why do all the shows with a interesting storyline have to go and the shitty ones where you can predict the ending in the first 5 minutes get renewed. Although the season final was decent enough as a series final.

I only hope a serious private network buy the rights of this show and make the people see how awesome it is.

I'm so pissed it got canceled. The best new TV show this season. Great actors, great concept, great production... everything was perfect. Except NBC's gut for this show.
