A drama following a man caught between two realities.


Since his car accident, detective Michael Britten's mind has created two realities in which his wife survived in one and his son survived in the other. At any given moment, he is not sure if he is awake or asleep - one minute he's awake with his wife, and at the blink of an eye he is awake with his son. With people in both realities assuring him he is not dreaming, he must now try and find out which reality - if any - is real.

Yeah, it's pretty sad how many lousy, mindless and derivative shows, and hows like the Kardashians (gag me) and Rookie Cop get to go on for years, but you get a really deep and intertesting show like Awake and it doesn't even get a full season.

Is it true they're just going to pull Awake and not even show the final two episodes, or is that just rumors?

I could generally take or leave TV but this show really caught my attention and is very well-written and acted. I wonder if the complexity of the story line just stumped people or if they couldn't tolerate the mysterious nature of the program. I wish another network would pick it up.

I am going to miss this show. It was great to have something on that one had to pay attention to not just be blankly stared at. Damn NBC

I just heard this show was being cancelled! I am so sick! I LOVE this show... everything out there that makes me want to watch week after week. So disappointed.

This is a show that makes one think. It is a great twist to the average cop show, but is also about family and loss. It challenges previously held concepts of the nature of reality. Love it! The comment on the son's "fornication" sounds like something a right winger would say, but of course:-)

I LOVE this show. This show should not be canceled! I could imagine it canceled, but I want it renewed!

I liked the show until the teenage son started fornicating. Now I can barely stand to watch it.

This show evidently does not scan well in the most sought-after advertising demographic - 19-40year-olds. It was noted on the site <bythenumbers> as being "all but offically canceled". As to the various comments, I like the interchange/crossover between the blue and red reality/dreams. i am curious as to how the whole thing might end and "who's behind it" and the "how" and the "why". Alas, we'll probably never know.

Maybe you think the show is bad because all you know are crap reality tv shows. This is an excellent show, makes you think.
I hope it gets renewed. I agree it needs to be marketed more so viewers will know its on.
