Advantages: Many characters with diverse motives, needs, hiistories and chacters Disadvantages: Can't think of any except I can't wait for what happens next
I only recently heard about Prison Break but after I watch one episode, I was hooked. It's a nerve wrenching story of how a group of prisoners break out of prison and an unfolding story of why they are being hunted down with such dexterity.
what complicates things is that while just about escaping from prison, one of the convicts who could not make it mentioned there was some stolen money hidden away somewhere. Prisoners as they were, this led to ... ...of those that were trying to bring them to book got wind of it and that diluted their motives for finding them. Why the fbi are looking for them is a question you'll have to find out by watching.
I will not ruin it bu telling you all that happened but I tell you if you enjoy watching things like 24, you will definitely like this one. I think what i found most catching about it is that there are so many twists and more people so guessing what this ...

Advantages: Action Packed, Great Cliff-Hangers Disadvantages: Non
For all fans of Fox's Prison Break, this cannot be missed. The second series (currently being shown on Five) is every bit as good as the first. Jam packed with action, twists and turns around every corner and full of cliff hangers. This is US TV at its best. One of the best drama series made in recent years. Fans of Lost or 24 should definately give Prison Break a look.
This DVD begins where season 1 left off. Schofield and friends escape from Fox ... ...being caught. All to clear his brother's (Lincoln) name.
I do not want to spoil the fun for anyone not seen the DVD yet so I wont go into too much detail, but the first couple of episodes concentrate on the escapees and how they deal with running from the law. Tweener finds there is a surprise in store once he escapes and as the group spilts up to take their own path government agent Malone (new character) is given the tough job of tracking all ...

Advantages: The show never lets up. There are suprises everywhere! Disadvantages: There can only be a limited amount of Prison Break :(
What can I say? This is drama at it's best! Following the convicts breakout from prison, they are now on the run not just from the law, but from eachother aswell!
Linc's character eventually comes to life, and Michael is as unpredictable, but genius as ever!
In the first part of this series, there are twists and turns everywhere. Mallone is right begind the convicts,especially Schofield and Burrows, but Michael Schofield always manages to be one ... ...showing no signs or tiring, or of giving up.
This fast paced, thrilling, and unpredictable drama is absolutely fantastic and keeps you on your toes through every episode.
When series one ended, I thought the writers would be hard pushed to match it's cult status, but they've somehow managed it, and suprisingly, unlike many other prequils, series two has beaten its former series!!
It's hard to beleive but it's true.
It you've watched the first ...
