The headline from the front page of the huffpost post says: "Awake" creator on how NBC ruined show".
He makes some good points, especially about having only one or two cases per season.

Re: Kyle Killen, How Awake Would've Been on Cable
Several fans have brought up the issue with the case of the week procedural drama not being everyone’s cup of tea. I wish Awake had focused on one or two cases also - and gotten to explore more of the psychological twists and turns. Yes – it would have been better on cable. But then again being on cable normally means a smaller audience (like Brotherhood.) I was hoping it could be successful on network TV and if NBC had given it another season – I think it could have.

I think there is a LOT more than this than meets the eye, wishes, wouldas and couldas. I think that Jason has grown and learned from doing Awake and producing it (and he was REALLY great before it...). What happened was supposed to happen as it did, and everyone moved on. Even how people are re-structuring HOW to count viewing is changing because of Awake. The show did it's job in spades and was wonderful. And yes, I loved it, and miss it terribly, and am looking so forward to SOMETHNG with him on a screen already. ellen
