Yeah, my lovely lady and I are really getting into this.

I think one of the reasons it works is that the dual-worlds thing isn't the main thrust of the show.  It's influencing Brittan's life, absolutely, but it's much more about his relationships and his police work.

Pete, that's great! How far are you into it? I haven't watched past "Oregon," but not for the lack of interest. It's a great piece of writing.

Just watch them on Hulu or something, Piratepete.  Half the effort and the people who worked on it don't get screwed over.

Snell, I think we're pretty much caught up.  We missed the first two episodes, I think, but we've seen everything since.  Our first one was the one with the supposedly-dead serial killer, and we've seen every one since.

It's also made us take a second look at Person of Interest, too.  :)

I'm in the UK so I don't think hulu works. And I wouldn't pay to watch it anyway so your argument is slightly moot.

Hulu is a free service.

So your argument is "I'd rather steal it than get it for free in a way that benefits the creators"...?

Wow.

Seriously, people.  Watch this show.  I wish I'd been watching it sooner.

I need to get back on it! I've been watching reruns of BREAKING BAD, and I started THE KILLING. Have you watched any of THE KILLING, Peter?

Well.  It seems NBC has decided to cancel Awake, because they just have loads of other good shows.  I think three jump to mind, and two of them are half hour sitcoms.

As it happens, I have prepared a written statement to be released to the press.





"#$(% you, NBC!!!   #$(% YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
