Awake News #1: On March 1st 2012, Thursday 10/9c, a show you've never seen before.

Some articles about the show:

Thanks so much for the articles,
This picture is so nifty

I think it's true that the idea may be to complicated, but I LOVE shows that are somewhat complicated, because that's the fun of us fans trying to figure out the story with the characters. It brings more arc in my opinion.

Oooh, I like that photo.

The real problem with shows like this is the execution of their ideas. A lot of shows are amazing in concept, but fall flat when shown. Hope this doesn't end up like that.

I hope it doesn't either.

Any news about when it might air? I know they were doing rewrites.

Very cool poster!

Complicated is good, if it was too easy, what would be the point? It will make you think.

People tend to have shorter attention spans nowadays (including me ), so I wouldn't want it to be TOO complicated.

Case in point: The Event.

Well personally I thought "The Event" became kind of boring overtime. I did watch it all the way through though. Simon Lee was my favorite character on the show.

Yeah, even Laura Innes wasn't enough to keep me watching. And the long hiatus didn't help matters.

ive seen a few episodes of the event, and i thought it was good. it was a little confusing, but i agree, confusing can be good as long as the questions are answered.

i prefer shows that answer questions as they go and bring up new ones. as opposed to not answering ANYTHING until the very end. LOL.

At least Awake's going to be a midseason show, so they won't be affected by a long hiatus in the middle. Also, It looks like it's going to be more character driven than plot driven.

yeah, i like that... at least at first, i want to get to know the characters and the story before having too much mystery.

I want a premiere date!

This was one of the shows that intrigued me. Hopefully it does well.
