Prison Break Complete Season 1

The first season of Prison Break is exactly what you'd expect from the title - convicts trying to escape from prison. The series can be clever and exciting as you join Michael Schofield and crew of cons attempt to break out of Fox River State Penitentiary. Mixed agendas and quick twists of both loyalties and storyline are common and add to the drama and ongoing enigmatic elements of where this is all headed. You follow two main storylines - Michael's intellectual but complex escape plans and the effort to prove from outside the penitentiary, the innocence of his brother Lincoln, who is on death row for the supposed murder of Terrance Stedman (the brother of the Vice President.) The viewer quickly learns of the bureaucratic and desperate measures in place to avoid any kind of 'truth' prevailing surrounding the odd circumstances of the 'murder.' It is an all-round good series when you're watching it, but personally I felt it was nothing extraordinary and after catching the first couple of episodes of season two admittedly, will not be going out of my way to watch it further. It perhaps lacks a chance for true character development- which may reflect the restrictions of life within prison. As with everything, some people may absolutely love this series and there are many likable elements and exciting episodes and it is definitely entertaining enough to warrant watching.

This series of Prison Break is fantastic. Once you start watching it, you can't stop, gripping! Acting brilliant, everything about it is amazing-everyone should watch it.
