Advantages: It's brilliant! Disadvantages: It comes to an end!
Prison Break is definitely my favourite on-going tv series at the moment. From the very first episode, I found myself fixated with the show, and I can honestly say that I can barely remember even seeing a single bad episode, and the series has completed it's third season by now. Season 1 was created by Paul Scheuring, and Season 1 first aired in 2006, on Channel 5, and has since become one of the most popular tv shows both in the Us and here in the ...

Advantages: Well written and acted, very exciting and original. Disadvantages: May be a bit violent for some
...this years big TV hit, Prison Break. Originally shown on Five earlier this year, it garnered huge word-of-mouth and won a new army of fans when it was repeated on UKTV Gold. Now the entire first series is released on DVD, so you don't get the agonising weekly wait for the next episode. Big cliffhanger? Just whack in the next DVD and keep on watching! Also, with series 2 just starting in the US its a perfect time to catch up with the best TV show for ...

Advantages: Fantastic, best series I've ever seen! Disadvantages: None whatsoever!!!
...come close.
So I started watching Prison Break towards the latter half of this season after I was constantly being badgered by one of my friends to watch it and I'm so glad I did because its the best TV Series I've ever seen and I don't say that lightly either.
I've been a fan of and watched alot of american TV series and dramas such as Lost, NCIS, Reaper, ER, House, Bones, Buffy, Friends, Grey's Anatomy, Numb3rs, Ally Macbeal, Frasier.....ok ...

This has been the best Drama to come out of America ever. The characters are great and you'll be happy for them when good happens and sad when something bad happens. This is a great DVD and you'll be hooked to it. I couldn't wait to watch the next episode when it was on tv but now I can watch it as often as I wish. You won't be disappointed if you're after a good drama that you won't be able to stop watching

Advantages: Sensational and highly addictive series. Outstanding performances of prison life and the struggle to get out ! Disadvantages: Bit unbelievable - but who cares ?
...in charge of refurbishing the prison several years ago, so he has access to detailed blueprints. He redesigns the plans as an intricate tattoo that covers his entire upper body. He then commits a halfhearted armed robbery, pleads guilty, and has himself shipped off to Fox River.
Of course, getting into Fox River is much easier than getting out - he has to navigate not only the prison but winover some nasty characters and get them to work together. ...

Prison Break is the gritty and clever prison drama TV series from the US. The show never really took off on British screens, but the first two seasons were broadcast on Channel 5, with it moving to Sky One for season 3. Season one is the best of the bunch and is full of ideas and action that will have you coming back for more and more.
The show follows Michael Schofield, an engineer, whose brother Lincoln is incarcerated at Fox River Penetentiary. ...
