The American television police procedural fantasy drama Awake consists of 13 episodes. The series, created by writer and executive producer Kyle Killen, centers on Michael Britten (Jason Isaacs), a detective living in two separate realities after a car accident. The series was conceived by Killen after creating and developing Lone Star for the Fox network. NBC encouraged Killen to conceive a concept for a future television series. Although inspired by the processes of dreaming, the script was cited as potentially being too complex for mainstream American television. The first episode of Awake was released on Hulu on February 16, 2012, officially premiering in the United States on NBC on March 1. On May 11, NBC canceled the series and aired the final episode on May 24, 2012. Awake averaged 4.8 million viewers per episode and ranked 125th in viewership for the 2011–12 television season.
