Prison Break Season 2 (Part 2 of 2)


Prison Break Season 2 (Part 2 of 2)

As I stated before, there were bigger character moments for the show in the second season. Special Agent Paul Kellerman, whom was the major villain in the first season, ends up being a strange anti-hero later on the second season. I enjoyed finally getting some insight into his character’s history. Paul Adelstein just kicks ass as this character, and he really seems to be enjoying himself. So, what is the fate of the character toward the end of the season? Hmm, I don’t think he’s dead. (Yet, Adelstein is currently on another show at the moment.)

Since they broke out of the prison, each character has gone through hell and back. So, we get to see what these people are made of. Sure, there are some missteps on the way, but the character development is spot on.

With all its twist and turns, Prison Break seemed to really find its vibe in the second season. This is an amazing feat when you consider that most shows have very weak second seasons. So, make sure you rent the first season before you watch the second season.

I had a lot of fun watching this entire season on DVD.

(Note: I’m not sure I like the direction they may be going for the third season. But, it certainly was a heck of a way to end a great season.)

Grade B+

(Now, onto season one of Heroes)

Yeah, that was pretty cool when he turned on his leaders and ended up getting killed supposedly.

I think they only got up to 6 episodes before the writer's strike. There is some talk that the writers are going to start talking to the studios after Thanksgiving.

I've watched more than 6 episodes this season.

What is happening is instead of having the fall hiatus and coming back in January, the show is going to keep on playing until they are out of episodes.

Semaj said...

That sounds cool. So, once they run out, and the strike doesnt end, will they simply close up shop?

I read from your site 24 is pretty much done this season.

MC said...

I think even if the writers and producers come to an agreement, 24 isn't going to be on this year(as they would be filming now for it)

Semaj said...

that's a shame considering this could very well be their best season
