Did you watch Jason Isaacs in ‘Awake’ last week?

5 Mar

Last Thursday while I was at the NBC building (30 Rock!) I saw Jason Isaacs heading in to do some press for his new prime time drama ‘Awake‘. It was a chance encounter that I was not expecting at all, and I was fortunate enough to ask Jason for a quick picture before he headed in with an NBC publicist. I’m not a huge ‘Harry Potter‘ fan but I do know Jason Isaacs from ‘Abduction‘ with Taylor Lautner, and I have featured him on PFG before with a picture I took at the NBC Upfronts last spring. It was great seeing him again!

I had been excited for ‘Awake‘ for a couple of weeks so getting to meet Jason on the day of the premiere was pretty cool. The Hollywood Reporter shared that ‘Awake‘ brought in just over 6 million viewers and took the #1 ratings spot for the 10PM hour. Without giving away any spoilers I thought the show was really, really good and a completely unique concept. Watching the two worlds collide and not knowing which is reality was definitely what will keep me coming back for more, because I love a good mind-blowing. My theory, for now, is that Jason Isaacs‘ character is in purgatory. He’s not dead or alive, and neither of his “realities” are in fact reality. But I guess we will see!

I featured the full trailer for ‘Awake‘ below just in case you haven’t seen the first episode, which you can watch on NBC.com right here to catch up!

The Trevor Project: Daniel Radcliffe’s PSA!

22 Feb

Last night during a very disturbing but hopefully eye-opening episode of ‘Glee‘ revolving around bullying and teen suicide a brand new PSA for The Trevor Project featuring Daniel Radcliffe aired.

The Trevor Project is a non-profit organization that specializes in the support of LGBTQ youth. They have a very large presence among social media thanks to Facebook and Twitter, as well as annual celebrity events in Los Angeles and New York to help raise funds and spread awareness. Thanks to their annual events I was made aware, as well as many others, and now they have the capability to use star power and reach out to millions more.

Not only will Daniel Radcliffe‘s Broadway and Harry Potter fan base alone reach out to millions of youth all over the world, but airing the PSA during ‘Glee‘ will help spread it among the youth who watch with siblings, parents, or other family and friends.

If you are being bullied, are depressed, or are having thoughts of suicide please call The Trevor Project: (866) 488-7386. It is strongly encouraged you save this number into your phone – you never know when you will need to talk to someone! No matter what is going on in your life at any time there is always someone out there who thinks you are worth listening to and saving – stranger or not.
