Great stories make you root for every character - even the sick, twisted, creepy, crawly child murder who's about to re-enter the suburbia of typical Americana as a prison escapee. Ultimately each character in `Prison Break' is developed completely enough that the audience is personally invested in their constantly changing circumstances. This investment becomes so blind that such things as how unrealistic the twists and turns of the plot line become just don't matter anymore. After all, good TV isn't about reality anyway and this series is very good and helping us all suspend reality and experience all the facets of human nature from the dark, ugly, and troubling to the good and beautiful. In a mystical sense this is the oldest story form centered around a `holy' quest with impossible barriers and conspiracies, good Samaritans, brotherly love and, predictably, a little love story all thrown in for good measure.
---- What I liked ----
This is smart, engaging, reality relinquishing entertainment - everything good TV should be.
---- What I didn't ----
There's nothing I didn't like.

I didn't watch this show until it came out on DVD. This probably was best for me, because I was able to watch each episode as soon as I wanted. I probably went through the whole season in 2 weeks.
Many of the characters are fascinating (esp. T-bag). If you liked Shawshank Redeption, you probably will like this.
For what its worth, I prefer this season 1 over season 2, but season 2 is also good.

In the deluge of Action/thriller based serials that are present today, its refreshing to come across a serial that manages to hold your attention throughout. I came across this serial quite by accident and since the first episode, I've been hooked ! Great casting, well thought storyline, stylized presentation and plenty of thrilling moments, this serial is a must watch. Highly recommended !!!

On Prison Break, Wentworth Miller plays Michael Scofield, a man willing to go to any length for familial obligation and the love of his brother, Lincoln, who is on death row. It isn't even a question of whether his brother is innocent--Michael knows and believes he is innocent and risks his own future to save it. Hatching an elaborate escape plan using the blueprints of his brother's prison, Michael plots their escape and is not willing to wait for justice to take its course and clear his brother's name. Along the way they meet some colorful prison characters, including a pedophile with a penchant for pretty boys, a dishonorably discharged soldier whose wife still thinks he's in Iraq, a linked-up mobster who is critical to the escape plan, and an old-timer who might have $1 million hidden on the outside.
This is a show filled with conspiracy theories, and with twists and turns around every corner that keep you guessing the whole way through. I wasn't sure if this show was for me, but I heard so many great things about Prison Break, I just had to check it out for myself. And I wasn't disappointed. Prison Break is action packed and exciting the whole way through. It's definitely a show that you won't want to stop watching once you put it on, and I'd highly recommend it to the same sort of viewers who enjoy shows like Oz and Lost. Now that I finished this season (in 3 days of an almost non-stop viewfest), I can't wait for the second season to come out.

This show is amazing. I rented Season 1 a yr ago or so and I decided to rent it again recently. Even the second time around, it is still so suspenseful and nail-biting. I told my boyfriend he HAS to watch it...he has no choice in the matter, hehe. The first disc is sitting on our coffee table just calling his name. If he doesn't like it, I don't know how I'll handle it. *Sniff, sniff*. I watched Season 2 on TV and I didn't think it was as good as the first but still good. I will probably buy the seasons because they are good to go back and watch again.
