I hate to sound ungrateful, but I wonder if this show would have been better as a 13-episode series. At the very least, on FX instead of FOX. I still feel worried that they'll drag the show out longer than a season, just for FOX.

I'll be saying a prayer before bed tonight that Abruzzi is somehow back next May. And that he kills T-Bag (although I'm always fascinated with T-Bag, in a true "love to hate him" sort of way).

It was only supposed to be 13 episodes... until they picked up 9 more, thus expanding the season and prolonging the escape.

Not may, March!

It certainly could have ended after 13 episodes. Perhaps FOX expected it to be like every other show they have dumped on Mondays (Skin, anyone?). They have hits and they have misses on Mondays. What am I saying? FOX is one big hit and miss network. No nights are really guaranteed either way. 'Cept Fridays. At least "The O.C." did a decent job last year. Can't say the same this year.

Joey is losing it.

It's March!!! We're not hallucinating... even Fox said after the show...

Really? I didn't watch after the show. I was too angry that the show wouldn't be back until May. I wonder how FOX will work it into the schedule. Maybe Bones will get moved?

That didnt even seem like a season finale at all. Are they going to cram 12 hrs until Lincoln's death in 8 or more episodes in March like the way 24 hrs jams 1 real hr per episode?

It was a good episode. I did, however, expect them to have escaped already. Having that happen would have allowed the season to be split into nice sections where its return would seem more like a "new season" (On the run).

I was lucky enough to see the first episode of the new season (well, the next episode that airs on Monday, at least). There isn't any stalling. We're not going to be treated to a 24-esque final 9 episodes, where each episode covers an hour or two.

That's all I'm saying.

Did anyone watch?

WOW, that final scene with all the crying and hugging is pretty emotional. LJ is not as annoying this time, heh. YOu're right, there's no stalling, even if the breakout was halted, it seems like were in for a ride.

C-Note is now part of the main cast. Interesting, but Westmoreland isn't. I heard someone else will bite it before the end, it ties with what Tweener admitted to Bellick.


Anyone find those Volkswagen commercials with a Eurotrash Peter Stormare really odd and creepy?

Nice cliffhanger. One would understand tha by killing Lincoln, it would further the interest of the story and vengence for Michael. Then again I dont really want Lincoln to die but then I would understand why they would kill him off to make season 2 more interesting. It does seem kind of misogynist that the creator of 24/Prison break does seem to make the villainous woman characters really evil and hateable

"Have a little faith" and again "Have a little faith", and again and again.

Think Lincoln will be quite fine.


As for show overall, really liked first 5-6 episodes, then started to annoy me slightly. Must be stupidity of some characters, predictabilty and cliches. Still, good show if we don't nitpick that much. :-)

I only saw from 7:30 on (Lincoln was dreaming about the baseball player Prall) but what I saw was pretty entertaining.

Would anyone who saw the first half be willing to quickly fill me in on what happened? It would be greatly appreciated.

Patricia Wettig is an eeeeevil bitch.

So Lynne Kresge from 24 survived the fall and is now one of Madame Vice Pesident's minions.

"Prison Break" is coming back for Season 2.

As for the episode, it had some great moments (Michael's tattoo getting ruined when he needs it most; Lincoln and Michael's dad supposedly in the viewing room), but... the new evidence was kinda... I dunno. They made a huge deal of Lincoln having no chance in hell of getting out of the execution last week, then this new evidence materializes.

Oh well.

So is Daddy Burrows part of the conspiracy?

I heard two big characters (keys to the whole conspiracy) are yet to appear.

What about Abruzzi? Please tell me he's coming back...

One of the April episodes.

Do you think he'll sport that funny haircut from the VW commercials? lol

Great episode last night. It's nice to know how almost everyone came to their current situations.

My favorite had to be Tancredi.

One scene I didn't like was Lincoln running past Sucre on the street. A little too "Crash" for me.

I liked it as well... it's nice to know what the deal is with the Montana house that the VP was staying at.

I realize... Terrence Steadman in the VP's country house wore dentures. Now it makes sense how the fake corpse matched with Steadman's dental records.

Great chemistry and bond between Lincoln and Scoffield. I never knew the hot doctor was a druggy, if she was she wouldnt look something like she is now
