    Super Cool start, deteriorates after escape
    Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller) deliberately commits a crime that would send him into the Fox River Penitentiary. There he intends to break him and his brother Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell) out who is on death row for the murder of the Vice President's brother. And the only thing he could bring with him is the skin on his body (and the tattoos on it).

    This was one of the most amazing drama of all times. It was immensely tense and super cool. But we all knew there was an end point. Once that was reached, the show could never go back. The prison escape and the interior is shockingly brilliant. The characters and actors are all top of the line. Robert Knepper steals the show as Theodore 'T-Bag' Bagwell. But from the start, we all know that once they escape. The show had no where just as good to go to.
