Prisonbreak-Episodes

Season 2 – “THE BREAK AWAY”

T-Bag enlists a veterinarian to sew again his hand back on. While he’s conscious. And even without pain killers. Meanwhile, FBI Agent Alexander Mahone was assigned to track down the escapees while nursing his severe addiction to pills. Scofield and Linc break out Linc’s imprisoned son L.J. While Bellick and the Warden face a tribunal for their roles in the break out. Sara is arrested for helping aid the escapees. Bellick and Geary (a fellow prison officer) catch Scofield, Linc and Nika only to end up losing them. Abruzzi tries to exact revenge on Fibonacci, but he was set up and shot down by the police in the process.

The Fugitives

The escapees search for Westmoreland’s money on the Double K ranch in Utah. Tweener is captured and interrogated by Mahone, before he’s gunned down in his cold blood. Haywire surfaces in Wisconsin, and Mahone persuades him to commit the suicide. T-Bag murders Geary and frames Bellick for their crime, sending the portly officer back to Fox River as an inmate. One word: Karma. T-Bag finds his former lover Susan Hollander, and holds her and her kids hostage at his own childhood home. C-Note decides to turn himself but it took his wife landing in jail and his daughter on her death bed before he finally manned up.

For the Newcomers: A Summary

Since the ongoing writers’ strike has halted the production on the TV’s most loved prime-time series, the return of the jailbird drama series is an very exciting prospect for fans alike. Although it has only a few new episodes remain to air before the show takes an indefinite hiatus, anxious couch potatoes can rejoice in watching it with some fresh storylines unfold. For newcomers who are dying to hop on the Prison Break bandwagon, the following guide is a crash course in what happened so far. Michael Scofield enters a Fox River State Penitentiary in the hopes of breaking out his brother Lincoln Burrows, who is facing an execution for a crime he didn’t commit.

Why Prison Break has to end

ABC has only recently announced the popular series Lost would be ending after three more 16-episode seasons – ample time, fans hope, to cleanly wrap up the convoluted story of the plane crash survivors. The series has been criticized for seemingly leading loyal views on.

For the producers of Prison Break, the same reasons apply. Fox released a statement not too long ago that the 4th season of the jailbreak series would be its last. In an interview here, Prison Break executive producer Zack Estrin revealed that they long had the feeling the series would be ended by Fox, and have subsequently adjusted the story so that they would have a good and solid ending when the time came. Estrin stated that to continue the story and stretch it would be “irresponsible”.

Prison Break – The Last Few Months

The TV series has been canceled and the last episode will be airing on April 17, 2009. this is the fate of the hit TV series that has so captured the world much like Lost and Heroes which have captivated the hearts and minds of people who are kept guessing by a new form of programming. Lost and Heroes have taken the programming level up a notch by including periodic flashbacks and fast-forwards where the past, present and future are tied in. Prison Break was canceled mainly due to the dwindling TV audience that has been down considerably from an estimated 10.5 million down to 6.1 which is a very large gap. There is also competition from the other two action/adventure shows we have mentioned that borders on the same storyline, that of totally alien individuals who suddenly find themselves stuck on each other as they try to live out their lives.
Initially a hit, it even gave birth to mobile mini-video versions that allowed the growing mobile market to see and watch their favorite show on their mobile phones. But maybe this wasn’t quite enough to keep the ball rolling. The show is over and fans will have to settle for the many other TV series that are now on the tube.

Prison Break – Taking a Break

t seems as if the story wouldn’t end but announcement from FOX’s Kevin Reilly have solidified the fears of many who have been following the four year old saga that delves into the lives of our favorite Prison escapees. The show is to end which may be due to the worsening economy and the network might simply be cutting losses with shows that are not quite making the mark. Corporate insists that this is not the case, and go on by simply stating that the story has gone out and the flame is dying. Reilly said at a press gathering in LA. :

“We didn’t just give it the hook,” he told a gathering of TV critics in Los Angeles. “The show is just played out.”

This might be a good thing for how long can a story of two guys and their friends who want to either escape or prove innocence in the face of mother justice, with cops and almost everybody else after them go on. This might also be a nice thing to do for unlike some other TV series shows that might never end! (you guess which is which).

Prison Break Out of Seven

Prison Break breaks out of Channel Seven, not because they wanted to, but because the channel wanted to. How sad. It seems that Prison Break fanatics are running low of luck. The axing was seen after only receiving 427,000 viewers last week. Now the show is being pushed for the summer. It is known that recently, Channel 9 took out Fringe and Channel 10 on the other hand said bye bye to 90210. So Prison Break will have three weeks off air. Heroes is slowly suffering the same fate. While Bones, the procedural crime drama remains on her slot. US drama series obviously suffered a very tough and rough year this 2008. The trend is beginning to emerge. It seems that audiences prefer self containing story lines, that way it doesn’t require much commitment.
