About

You’ll likely enjoy Awake if you like twisty mystery TV that makes you pay close attention; Not for you if you want a straightforward, fully resolved ending, or if you prefer less emotionally driven procedurals like The Blacklist or Rubicon.

Pros: fresh two-reality premise; strong, engaging acting; smart mystery pacing | Cons: only one season; cases feel repetitive; ending left open
