Prison Break-Season 2
Prison Break Season 2 starts tonight on Fox Monday August 21, 2006
The first season was great. It going to be a fun season 2 with them on the run this year. |
I am excited for this one, just as I was for last season.
The only reason I started watching was because I doubted their ability to get a good season out of just breaking out of prison, and now I am quite hooked. |
I liked the first season and can't wait for the start of season 2 tonight. :D
|
Just bought Season 1 on DVD last Saturday. Good stuff.
|
T-Bag is gonna slap somebody with his one hand.
|
I really like this show a lot and I know that sometimes you have to accept some unrealistic things or else the plot won't work, however with that said what was the deal with that small town in Illinois near the end? The pedestrian traffic in that town was almost as much as I have seen in downtown Chicago and New York. Was every single citizen of the town out walking the street that day???
All in all I thought a lot of the question mark cliffhangers from last season were pretty well done and I can't say that I am sad to see the lawyer go. Seeing that Lost will probably have even more breaks and garbage as it continues to gain popularity this may now be my favorite show on network television. |
Agreed. At least there is at least a payoff at the end of season 1 where they actually escape. I feel as if instead of writing themselves into a corner, the writers opened up the story. With Lost, I feel as if the writers don't have a plan and/or they write themselves into corners and leave plotlines dangling.
Good so far tonight. |

Nice start to the season. Looks like the FBI guy is going to be a pain in Schofield's ass.
Of course, I can already tell we will have a lot of dumb prison guards ending up in the wrong place and brainy FBI guy figuring out all the clues. |
It seems like the smart FBI guy could be like Schofield... I forget what it's called, but the thing where your brain pays attention to details.
|
Pretty good episode overall, my only complaint is the FBI agent figures out the tattoos so quickly . For some reason it reminded me of the south park episode 'rerun'(?)
Quote:
Me too, what idiot goes to that place by herself and without telling anyone. Well I think she told that guy but he died. And then she goes and calls the police without thinking "Hey maybe they can intercept calls?" |
Is it just me or did it look like when Schofield saw the FBI guy something clicked...like maybe they knew each other. That should be interesting.
Either way, great season premiere and I am pumped to see where this season goes. |
Quote:
Seems to me he was focus on the pill that FBI was taking. Maybe some medication the FBI has to take. It probably will come into play later on. |
Quote:
Didn't he look at the FBI guy before he took the pill? I might be mistaken though... |
That was my thought too, Mike. While he was looking at him, he took the pill.
Like I said though, it will be interesting to watch it all unfold :) |
Quote:
That was some pretty cheesy dialogue. |
Quote:
Haha. I was saying this to my girlfriend as we watched it. "I'm reporting a crime....by the President of the United States." *click* |
Quote:
My guess is that when the FBI guy is about to catch Scofield, he has a heart attack or something because he didn't take the pill. |
I wonder when the group is going to break up. I mean Tweener, Haywire, and T-Bag are all by their lonesomes and no one is chasing after them.
I can definately see the pill being a way for Scofield to narrowly escape the FBI guy. |
I loved Monday's episode.
Didn't expect that FBI guy to figure out the code talk between L.J. and Linc. T-Bag is even more of a tough bastard. Taking all that pain without any medical aids?? But I hope the vet doctor isn't dead... I actually felt sorry for him, and hated T-Bag in a way I haven't yet. I'm waiting for something now that makes me sympathize with him. In season 1, just as I was hating him, Belick taunts him with his family background. Then when I'm feeling a BIT sorry for him about that, they reveal his intent on wanting to get even with that woman that got him thrown in jail. And trying to kill off Abruzzi wasn't cool either. And Belick as a renegade cop out for revenge and moolah? That'll be awesome. He better dual-wield shotguns. :D |
After the first episode, i expect him to figure everything out by the next scene.
|
Monday's episode was really good. I find that this is one of the best serialized shows on TV.
|
I *know* that this series - perhaps more than others given it's "real" setting - is asking us to suspend disbelief, but the whole Veterinarian-turned-Vascular Surgeon is a bit too much for me to take. Yeah, I know they needed to get that plot-hole filled ASAP so they could move forward, but I'd much rather have T-Bag rolling through this season with a stump than this latest hokum.
However, if there is any payoff to this sleight-of-hand (ha-ha), such as some complications from the surgery affecting T-Bag in a meaniungful way, then I'll be partly appeased. For now? BAH! |
Quote:
Agreed. If you want to shock us with T-bag having his hand cut off or the prison chick overdosing on herion or T-Bag slitting the guys throat at least stick with it. That said, I do like how this show just kills people though and doesn't have the person explain why they are going to shoot them or give the person time to escape. Those rogue FBI agents just show up with guns blazing. |
w00t! More Holly Valence!
|
Last night's episode was good. I'm liking it more out of the prison than last season. I think that the FBI guy is getting too many lucky breaks though.
|
Quote:
My only concern (and don't get me wrong, I LOVE the show) is that it's starting to get predictable when unpredictability was its greatest asset last season. |
I agree, but right now it's got so many storylines that it's still quite enjoyable. I didn't think C-Note's wife would sell him out. I don't know why Rich Eisen (at least that's what I call Ms. President's FBI guy cuz he looks like him) doesn't take over the manhunt.
|
Quote:
She didn't sell him out. She did turn on the porch light on. So I don't think she will tell the investigator anything now. |
Two things that bugged me though:
1. Wouldn't Linc have been blown away the second he manually changed the radio station? They didn't really explain that part. I know you have to suspend some disbelief, but that was weird... 2. How did the two former guards (Bellick and the other guy) know where Linc and Michael would be? Did that fat cousin know they'd be out in the country somewhere?? I thought for sure the fat cousin would know about Sucre's plan to see his woman... this was a case of unpredictibility, but in a way that didn't make sense to me at all... |
Quote:
No - he had a few seconds to run while the radio scanned...maybe 5 or so. If he was smart, he would have manually tuned the radio backwards THEN hit the scan. In either case, getting away was easy. Quote:

It is starting to get predictable and silly. T-bag gets his hand cut off and lives. Not only does he live, but a vet is able to reattach it. Not only is the had reattached, but T-bag is somehow able to tie the vet up with the newly attached hand? No way. If that vet wasn't a complete moron, he'd have slapped that newly attached hand and run off while T-bad was rolling on the ground trying to not pass out from the pain. That was just too much. The instant Belick got fired, I turned to my wife and said "good, now he can go vigilante." This show was better when they at least made a passing nod toward realism. Hopefully they'll get it back on track. |
Quote:
Yeah, I guess these both make sense. Maybe I wasn't paying attention as much as I should have. |
Quote:
They follow that girl that been helping Michael. They seen her come visit Michael in the Jail last season. So they must know where she lives and follow her to them. |
Love the show also, especially the flashback format they used last night. I think there are more varied story lines than last season, making it even more unpredictable and more things they can do outside the prison walls than inside. Is the show realistic, probably not, but a good story is a good story. After the car blew up the FBI guy mentioned a name of someone he didn't catch, that the explosion was similar. Was that just something to show that he isn't going to catch them all?
I have been thinking about this for a couple of weeks....who do you all think will be the first guy caught and when? My guess will be the bipolar, schizophrenic, mental patient (no updates or story line given on him so far?) Everyone else seems to be on the verge of being caught, discovered and/or turned in either this week or in next weeks teaser. It seems like at least 5 characters are actively going west (Sucre, T-bag, pickpocket, and Lincoln/Schofield) with some kind of confrotation happening in Utah. I think they might just announce in 3 or 4 weeks (before the break for the MLB playoffs) that the mental patient was caught and leave it at that. |
Quote:
Yup. It's still one of the better shows on TV, but so far I don't think it is as good as last year. |
Double crap. :(
|
Quote:
Wow Didn't see that coming. |
Boo!! He was one of my fav. characters.
|
knowing this show and the ridiculous stuff they pull, he's not really dead
|
Quote:
Third times a charm, they say. |
I think Mr. Jetta is dead.
|
:cry: time to un-pimp the Abruzzi :sniff:
|
He was perhaps my least favorite character, so not too sad to see him go. But how dumb was the setup here. He was going after a witness in a federal criminal case was he not? Why would he be in some cheap motel with no protection from the FBI, especially since Abruzzi was on the loose? Abruzzi's a lot smarter than that, and should have figured out it was a set-up.
|
I agree with Thomkal on that one, but you can maybe chalk it up to his rage clouding his thinking.
One little nit-picky thing I had about the episode though... wouldn't at least one of the cops that T-Bag was talking to recognize him at least a bit?? I mean, it was a group of cops... and close to where the escape took place, was it not? |
dola
I guess another issue I had was how that girl with the white rapper dude was acting. Why was she all "it's him, I gotta go" on her cell if she wasn't talking to the cops? I think he's gonna get her pregnant and then there'll be a spinoff series with them.... or maybe not. |
Was I the only one that thought Tweener was going to be introduced to The Gimp in that store?
|
LOL. Didn't occur to me at all.
I'm concerned for the doctor. After she finds out that Rich Eisen is using her, she is going to have one fucked up head. First Michael uses her and now the FBI uses her. They're really trying to get her to have a nervous breakdown. Also, did anyone else think that Teabag hid the map in his ass...and then ate it??? |
Quote:
Teabag is one disgusting guy. You love to hate him. |
How good is this? The 1st season starts today in Spain and proably i'll watch it.
|
Quote:
I loved the 1st season. Got me hooked after the first episode. Second season is good so far, but there hasn't been an episode yet (or cliffhanger) that got me all pumped up like a few episodes in the first season did. |
Agree with Mike, although the whole season as a whole is making me go "what can happen next?" There isn't one little story that is making me all pumped, just everything as a whole :)
|
Quote:
They got me tonight. I can't wait for next Monday.:cool: |
I was thinking that what is buried in the garage could be a map to the real money. Also, glad that Vanilla Ice-Lite got caught.
|
What a couple of shockers at the end.
That FBI guy is crazy. Damn now we have to wait 3 weeks for another episode. |
I think Michael and Sucre(?) have a deal to split the money..okay episode.
|
Freakin' playoff baseball. :mad:
|
No great loss of characters, but I finally liked him with that romantic scene at the girl's house. :) That FBI agent may be crazier than T-Bag. Wasn't expecting what happened with the governor, should be interesting to see what happens with the doctor now. I think the agent watching her is going to "rogue" at some point and try to protect her.
|
Quote:
Agree with all of the above. I don't think that Sucre will cut out C-Note. It was plainly obvious that C-Note will get a slice of the money two episodes ago when he was looking at that RV and told the lady that he would be back with the money to buy it. Right now, it's a wild show. There wasn't just one cliffhanger, there were many.
That's not to mention what will happen to Haywire? Will Rich Eisen save the doc? Will the FBI agent ever get his men? Will T-Bag ever hide another map in his ass? |
Excellent episode last night. It really picked up from the last couple weeks with three of four different storylines that hooked me. Not to mention a little comic relief with Haywire. I can't wait to see the raft he makes out of that stick. :D
|
Geez. This show has so many directions it can go in right now. I love it. :D
And Haywire is a freaking nutcase. Build a raft. ROFL. I like how Tweener finally held up his end of the bargain by not selling out. And going to the chicks house was a good move. Too bad the FBI agent went psycho. I thought I'd might like that guy, but he has turned out to be a real duechbag. |
Well I think Haywire will end up in Holland after all...Holland Michigan, which is on the shore of Lake Michigan. :)

Good one! |

"What? No windmills???" |
I watched a lot of the first season on DVD, and then watched almost all of this seasons episode on the myspace page(which i recommend, good enough quality, barely any commercials).
Now I'm hooked, and after watching about 15 episodes in the past 4-5 days, I am quite depressed to have to wait for the new ones. |
Here's a site that I found if you missed out on any of Season 2. Commercials are only 10 seconds every 7-10 minutes. Good quality.

I liked how Lincoln payed someone to beat up his son.
Interesting twist with the FBI guy. |
I was disappointed that the FBI guy was working for Rich Eisen. I would've liked to see the two go head-to-head.

Quote:
I dont think the FBI volunteer to work for Rich Eisen. Seem like he was blackmail by him. He didnt seem like he wanted to kill any of the prisoners so far, but was force too. I hope the FBI gets a backbone and helps the guys out. |
Quote:
This week pretty well confirmed where I thought the last episode was heading with the agent. At some point I still think someone is going to "do the right thing" however. |
I enjoyed last night's episode. Will be interesting to see what happens next. Supposedly the show runs through november, and then goes on a lengthy hiatus.
|
Anyone else get annoyed by little details of the show? Watching last night's episode, and when they did a close-up of the DL that Sarah has, the age in the DL number doesn't match the the age according to the date of birth.

Quote:
That's the least of the plotholes. ;) I'm just along for the ride and it's still pretty enjoyable...although maybe not as much as last season. |

Great ep.
|
it's getting beyond annoying that the writers idea of throwing a new twist at us is introducing a group of people who can help the escapees, but the govt. has a guy on the inside out of no where. every other episode is like that.
|
Despite the weekly plot holes, this show is pretty engrossing. I'm fairly interested in seeing where they take the show the rest of this season. Surely it won't last too long if it's just cat and mouse. Especially when the escapees are pretty well known. Figure in this day and age, their pictures would be very well known due to the internet, etc.

Dola
Who is the secret asian man? Was he in season one? |

LOL, best line ever. |
So, from what I've been reading, next week is possibly the last episode before sometime in the spring?
I'll miss my tuesday afternoon PB fix, the internet site is the greatest thing ever. |
I have no problem suspending reality to really get into and love this show. With that said, a lifelong prison guard who is a total badass cowers in fear and puts up no fight against a man who is missing a hand and is armed with only a wine bottle. What is with his "Let's make a deal T-Bag" scared shitless pussy manuever? (And how did his body end up at the hospital while T-Bag sat in the room where the original assault took place? Did T-bag call the paremedics to come pick up the guy he had just murdered?)
|

2 more episodes, fall finale is the 27th |
What a shocking ending. I thought it was going to be the other way that dies.
Can't wait for the return of the show January 22. |
Good episode last night and I like how they're keeping it going. The story is progressing quite well. I really liked the fact that the CO was put back in the same prison he was the CO. Sorta saw it coming last episode, but it was a nice twist.
|
You know, why bring the dad back at all if you were going to job him out in 3 weeks. That just seemed to be a stupid design decision.
|
Other hard leap of reality to digest...
Two choices: 1. Hire a lawyer that will figure out that the murder was committed while you were in the hospital getting treated for a hammer wound. Maybe that lawyer can also get hotel tapes that show the hookers and T-bag on the elevators going to the rooms. Maybe a hotel clerk remembers seeing a guy without a hand walking around the hotel. 2. Go to prison for 25 years for a murder you didn't commit. |
And amazingly, despite all of those things, it's still way more entertaining then most stuff out there. I like that Eisen has now gone rogue, I really want to see that Kim guy get his. Not so sure that Mahone is actually dead though. As he appeared to have been shot in the chest, and in the past it seemed quite obvious that he wore a bulletproof vest.
|
I'm confused about the set-up. When Mahone wanted to kill the brothers in the holding facility, he couldn't because there were too many guards around. He was also denied a seat in the transport van.
BUT The set-up was conceived to let the brothers escape so they could kill them, and suddenly everyone is in on the fix. The guards knew to leave the van and "forget" the keys, the other cops knew to stall in the tunnel and let the brothers escape through the open door. Why not just be simple and let Mahone do the job before they left? |
Quote:
People can't just die in custody. But if the brothers are trying to escape, then that kind of stuff can happen. And I don't necessarily think that everyone was in on it, just a few people. |
Quote:
Yeah, it was just a couple of the guards that Eisen knew on the inside. |
Quote:
Ooooo! Good call there. Didn't even think about Mahone wearing a bulletproof vest. They have to bring him back. |
