breaking out

Wanting to break out of every room I've been in the last week never seems so necessary until I started watching Prison Break. I spent a lot of my free time looking vigilantly around finding every possible way to sneak out, emotionally tired, trying not to get caught meanwhile.

I will not cram one season-ful of TV drama in 3 days again.

After season 1, there is just too much killing, and a lot less brain. I'll give it the benefit of a doubt and hang on to the end to see if there are any reasonable explanations.

US TV series takes a long time to land in Japan. People are starting to watch Grey's Anatomy, Lost, and Prison Break this year. 24 has only been around for about two years. And the DVD rental is anything but cheap (300 yen each), averaging 2-3 episodes per DVD. You do the math.

If they wouldn't use Fox News on the show...

Prison Break Season One is a classic...I also watched the whole season in 2 or 3 days in a row

Prison Break S1 is a true classic. S2 is not bad, though, even I came to accept at the end that Went's acting (despite how cute he looks) really sucks!

I need Scofield to be smart, not a smart ass.

The network knows if the audience is hooked, they'll tag along provided it's still watchable.

I hope they pick up the slack and not let the show die an untimely death. Either way it's already a drag.
