    Anyone watch this? I just watched the first two episodes last night and I thought they were phenomenal. The best part was that the Robin Tunney character graduated from Baylor Law School and they felt the need to point that out a couple of times.

    Man this show is addicting!!! I've seen every episode so far and each one is suspensful. Granted it is not 100% realistic but what show is. I hope it is getting good ratings so it will stay on the air. I don't watch very many shows that aren't sports but this one has me hooked. Anyone know if it is an actual long-term series or just a mini-series because I don't know how they can continue the current storyline of him trying to break out for many seasons unless it follows their lives once they escape. Check it out if you haven't seen it yet!

    All I've seen is the 2nd half of last nights episode, and I'm hooked. Anyone know if they will show the first episode again? If all else fails I'm sure I can find the torrent.

    I dont like the lead character. He always has this stupid smirk on his face. The show is ok. It is probably the best thing on in its spot but that doesnt say a whole lot. They just try too hard to be too smart. I just cant get into. I thought it would be good.

    so...what happens when they break out of prison? Do they cancel the show or rename it "The Fugitive"? Oh wait, that one was already done. :D

    They've actually played the first two episodes back to back a few times, not sure if they'll do it again. I'd just torrent it.

    Haha, that's true...that's the same dude in the Mariah Carrey videos "shake it off" and "we belong together" and he has that same smirk there too. I guess that's just the way he looks. But it is kinda funny.

    Guys I missed last nights new episode. Living in South Florida and was impacted by Hurracaine Wilma. So all the major local networks were just showing Post Hurracaine Wilma stuff.

    A recap of last nights episode would be most appreciated. They had a Prison Break marathon this past Sunday on FX and I only have two more to catch up one.

    This is a great show. I saw a special making of Prison Break and they said the writters have already written a storyline for the second season. So I am assuming they escape and are on the run. While they were interviewing the lead character "Michael" they asked him what he thinks if they end up killing off the brother he is trying to save. He laughed and said he thought about it and that would suck... :p

    Wait, do you want a recap of last night or the last two episodes. I can for last night, but I don't remember too much from a few weeks ago.

    I was kind of disappointed. I thought we were getting two new episodes last night.

    The guards in this prison are the stupidest guards EVER.

    Michael said the weak link is this Storage room turned into a secret break room. They walk in there to fix the place and start sledging away at the concrete floor. How do these guards not hear that? If they're not leaving once the hole is made, aren't they worried that the guard will check up on their work?

    I'm still dumbfounded as to how they didn't do a background check and find out that the dude designed the place. :rolleyes:

    Plus, do inmates on death row have this much freedom?

    Other than that, it's a pretty good show. :)

    You're right about one thing, inmates on death row are kept seperate from those serving time, ESPECIALLY when it is so close to their execution date. However, this is TV and some stuff has to be changed for it all to work out... make believe and all.

    As far as "finding out" that he designed the place, he stated from the beginning that the work was "farmed out" to a company under the table, the company he worked for... so there was no record of him working on it.

    As far as the sound from the hammers, they are supposed to be "gutting" the building so there is going to be some sound, and the building is seperate from anything else in the yard, and is right in the middle of the compound... so why watch them? Remember that these guards make between 20-25k a year so they aren't all going to be Joe Fridays.
