NBC has a new show airing on Thursdays called Awake. The premise being that the main character can not tell whether he is asleep or awake. He lives in two alternate realities since suffering a terrible accident. In one his son is dead, in the other, he lost his wife. This much you may know. What you may not know is that the idea for this show came from the fact that Mets primary owner Fred Wilpon has the exact same situation going on.
