After watching the season finale of Revenge Wednesday, I was certain that I had seen the craziest hour of television that the 2011-2012 season had to offer. Fast forward twenty-four hours and begin a slow-clap for Awake, a complicated show Continue reading

It’s quite bittersweet to review a show knowing that it’ll be one of the last episodes EVER. Part of me wishes Awake goes completely out of the box and deliver something really memorable in this two-part finale, perhaps inspiring a Continue reading

Awake recap – 1×11: ‘Say Hello To My Little Friend’

Well this is bittersweet. Literally half way through the episode, I received word from TVAngie that NBC had cancelled Awake (awkward!). It’s especially disappointing considering that ‘Say Hello To My Little Friend’ is easily one of the best episodes the Continue reading

This week we get a big development on the baby front as Michael (Jason Isaacs) and Hannah (Laura Allen) consider adoption. Let’s bitch it out…

This week Awake tries to deliver a bombshell twist outside of its central mythology, but mostly comes up lacking. As much as I appreciate the effort to do something more with Michael’s (Jason Isaacs) personal life (outside of the case Continue reading

Awake recap – 1×07: ‘Ricky’s Tacos’

The week after Awake‘s best hour since the pilot, the show returns to the procedural rut. We do, however, also see a return to the conspiracy angle that’s gone unexplored since 1×02 ‘The Little Guy’. So where does this leave us? Continue reading

Awake recap – 1×06: ‘That’s Not My Penguin’

I have a feeling that tonight’s episode of Awake, the thought provoking series about a man living two lives, is going to be rather polarizing. I quite liked it, not only because it wasn’t afraid to ask questions, but because Continue reading

Awake recap – 1×05: ‘Oregon’

After last week’s iffy episode, it pleases me to no end to see Awake rebound to heights unseen since its pilot as ‘Oregon’ proves to be quietly emotional. Oh sure, the police procedural component is familiar, but it is also Continue reading
