Awake recap – 1×13: ‘Turtles All The Way Down’

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 that never quite caught on. Last night touched on insane series finale territory as it somehow managed to answer questions but revealed nothing all at the same time. Let the great debate begin!

Awake recap – 1×12: ‘Two Birds’

May 18, 2012 by tvangie

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 letter-writing campaign or a NetFlix revival. The other part of me just hopes that I’ll get closure by the end of it all. “Two Birds” does feel rushed at times, but despite that, I do have a feeling I’ll be satisfied by series’ end.

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

May 11, 2012 by Joe Lipsett

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 series has produced thus far.
