Title: Prison Break (Beware: Spoilers!)
Post by: Sakib on March 23, 2006, 03:15:30 PM
Does anyone watch this show? I think its the worst show on tv. It can easily be very gripping but instead its a comedy of errors especially the soundtrack which is way OTT. I was hoping it was gonna be something intelligent. They try do develop and introduce far too many characters at once and the guys can't even act properly most of the time. So rather than watch it and take it seriously me and my sister watch it for a laugh. What do think?

I think that you're wrong.

My only problem is that some of the acting isn't great. I'm only as far into it as has been shown in the UK so far, but unless they change the formula in the latter episodes you're completly off with what you say about the introduction of characters...As I say, maybe it's different in latter episodes, but right now I think that the characterisation is great! The soundtrack hasn't bothered me at all, either. I also think that 'me and my sister watch it for a laugh' is just a poor excuse for the fact that you can't get enough of a quality show!

I like it. And besides. There are enough decent actors in the show to mean that it doesn't become a major criticism.

Prison Break's a great series... and I've never noticed anything wrong with the soundtrack ???

There are certain flaws, sure, but as a whole it rocks :)

It does havea decent plot but is pretty poorly executed.

i adore this show! i think it is brilliant! Sure the main character has only one facial expression but i think the show is well thought out.

A dude is in Prison, weeks off being executed for a crime he did not commit.

His brother get's himself arrested on purpose so he can join him in prison and help him break out.

That's the 'simple' premise of the show but it's a lot more complex with many twists along the way and the soundtrack rules :D

The lead character is failure wooden but the story itself keeps you gripped.  3 episodes in i was enjoying it but did not think it was anything special but the show reallt took off round about episode 5, i'm now upto episode 14 and it is fantastic one of the best shows on tv.....

The doctor hands down, you're fucking insane if you think the lawyer has anything on her!

Incidently, the last episode that I say (the one where T-Bag's bitch hangs himself) was great. What was so good about it was that they introduced a character that had absoloutly no redeeming qualities, and yet still you felt sorry for him. Poor old Vannilla Ice.

I found that character hilarious, so fucking clueless, black dudes think he's taking the piss and white dudes think he's trying to be black so they all hate him, still, he seems to be nice at heart just very naive.... :D

I've seen every episode so far and a leaked next weeks episode. It's "OK", nothing stunning though, sometimes too predictable.

Jim, i disagree with the poor excuse. there's no expression on any of the guys face. I watch it because its a comedy of errors and i think that bloke who said in the first episode "put your hand in my pocket" (dont know any1'z name) cracks me up

I love it!

(I don't remember the word that tells that you are going to write something that maybe all not know, I'm really tired )










But I don't like that Peter Stormare died, I think he dies in almost every serie/film he's acting in :P

are you talking about Abruzzee? If so we don't really know if he's dead yet, we just know he was in bad shape after being shanked. I hav a sneaky feeling he might be coming back into the mix again and will play a bigger part in getting them out in the end.

Yes,I think I do? :)

(Please,tell me that world, I am irritated at myself right now)

I hope he does!

I think he is a rather good actor (and the fact that he is from Sweden makes it more fun to watch the serie,for some reason :P )



I know that the word is spoiler now,it popped up in my head when I was trying to sleep.

Oh, we are really far behind. We usually are. (With Lost, we're pretty much a season behind. Though, I think that they're going to rectify that eventually......) That episode was on last Monday.

Though, it has been on for a fair bit more than a month (four episodes).......

Tonights episode was really good. I cant believe what happened near the end though (i wont say anything to spoil it). That is really going to fuck them up I think...

Word is, he's coming back.

And those VW commercials he's in over here in the states are just awful.

Oh, and I'm firmly in the "love it" camp.  It's not 24, or Lost, but it's pretty freaking good.

Hmm...People here mentions Lost and 24 a lot,doesn't anyone watch Desperate Housewives?

Guess it doesn't appeal to men that much... at least that's the impression I've got from the few episodes I've watched.

Maybe you are right, but there is women on this board too  ;)
I love that series ;D

Sort of...but not closely.  My wife watches the show and I'm usually in the room when it's on....

Haha... what a great show!  I think that men won't watch it because they're afraid of the title.  I didn't know what it was all about until I watched it, now I love it.  Some parts really tug at the ol' heat strings while others are completely hilarious.  Besides, as a guy, I can justify liking it by saying that Eva Longoria is on there!  : ok:

Tonights episode was really good.
Yeah, class episode, this is a series, like i said before that keeps getting better and better as it goes along......

That is really going to fuck them up I think...
Course it is that's the whole point i mean it was only Episode 15, they have plenty more they need to stretch things out somehow...

That's good to hear the dude is my fave character....

Nah it rules, just seen Episode 17, it's entertaining, has eye candy, some nice twists and it's one of those programs where you can put your brain on hold and just have a laugh, it's great entertainment :D :yes:

Wow tonights episode was awesome! I wont give away too much but I never expected some of the stuff that happened to happen. And the spoilers for next week were shocking as well. I can't believe who they tell they are going to break out.  :o
