Only 13 episodes in this series due to the writers strike. I doubt they could have written any more, they seem to be running out of ideas anyhow.

As Irishmen we dilute our sense of nation by depending on the English to bring us our balls

I was a big fan of the first two series but this one has gone off the boil alright. I'm sick to the teeth of the Corporation, and is it just me or is the jail they are in not that bad at all? Remember the end of the 2nd series where the place looked like Hell and was supposed to be Hell?

yep it looked scary as hell with all those lady boys and drug addicts. It has been very poor this series and I'm starting to lose interest. Even T Bag is looking bored. Originally Posted by jebus

I am done. Watched my last episode of Prison Break & I even liked series 2.
Words fail me to describe how bad series 3 is. No plot, crap script, worse acting. Says it all that one character prefers to have her head cut off than come back for this series. -
Pretty much sums it up for me to be honest Originally Posted by pete

I enjoyed the last episode! Sure it's ridiculous and the acting isnt the best but its great no brainer entertainment IMO

It was always brain dead entertainment but it doesn't even have ridiculous twists now, nothing happens & not even half decent conspiracy to keep it going... Originally Posted by gustavo

Sky 1 are up to the bit where they are just about to escape.....once again it was a **** episode. Did they rush these episodes through because of the writers strike was looming? Series 1 was outstanding, series 2 was decent enough and had its moments but this series is crap. The new characters offer nothing new and I cannot see how they'll string this out for another 2/3 seasons.
-
They're not seriously gonna try and get another 2/3 seasons out of this are they? I thought if they ended it at season 2 with Michael, Sarah, AJ and Lincoln getting away, the Asian corporation guy dead, Sucre with his wife, and Mahone, Bellick and T Bag all gone down it would have been perfect Originally Posted by shakermaker1982

From the way the show has developed I get the impression that when they conceived it they had a good idea about what they wanted to do with season one and very vague one about season two but not Chris Carter style mega-arc which isn't necessarily a bad things a mega-arcs tend to run into problems, which Carter's certainly did with the X-Files.
The problem is that with a concept like the one Prison Break is built around you're pretty much left with two choices, either have a mega-arc or be pure nonsense within a few seasons. The latter seems to have won out.
The longest I've seen a mega-arc run without getting into major problems was 3 seasons (based on US 22 episode length season, 10 and 13 episode season shows can keep it together longer), and when that actually happens the writers tend to thank their lucky stars and begin building a new one straight after. Look at shows like Lost where they have a crazy mega-arc in place, they had to cut the tail off the final 3 seasons (the current and the next two) in order to pull it together.Check out my new sports blog http://www.action81.com -
I actually enjoyed last night's episode, but if they have to SPOILER: break back in to the prison to get T-Bag and Sucre out then I'm switching off

Enjoyed the last episode of the current series there, thought it sparked a bit of life back into the series, so hopefully this season goes down as a blip and they get back to form next time around. Some changes they have to make though, get rid of Bellick, he's served his purpose, ditto Sucre and the evil girl(Jodi Lyn Keefe), have it solely about Michael chasing Whistler and Mahone for the first few episodes and bring in T-Bag through Whistler's book about halfway through the series, leading up to Lincoln coming back to help out around the same time. Then I would finish it at the end of the next series and it might still go down as a very good show, they do need a Lost style return to form though

Its the 'evil girl' he wants,bring T-bag into it somehow,hes the best character Originally Posted by jebus

Who ever wrote the scripts for series 3 needs putting down. Woeful.

the actress who played sarah.
that actress who played her had to leave as she is preganent.also that young guy from season 1 who helped them escape(i forget his name but mahone shot him dead beside a black car),he killed somebody in a trafffic accident in real life and hes just got a 40 month prison sentence.so they had to write him out of it too.i thought he was a good actor.
its poor now compared to the first season but its the only thing i watch on t.v these days as most is just that reality crap so ill watch it again when it returns.
