NBC Schedules Premiere of Awake, Bumps The Firm

NBC has finally set a premiere date for one of the best new dramas of the season.

On March 1, Jason Isaacs will anchor Awake, an Inception-like series that features his character - an injured cop - awakening from an accident and living in two different worlds: in one, his wife is dead; in the other, his son.

I've seen the pilot and it's terrific. Watch an extended Awake promo now:

In related programming news, The Firm will be immediately sent to Saturday nights and Grimm reruns will air in its place until March 1.
