You know my TV died and didn’t buy a new one. I only had a few shows I watched online and Prison Break was one of them. I missed season one but became a fan with season two. I will miss it. I enjoyed every episode of that show.I hate to see any of the remaining characters, good guys I mean, die after all they have been through. T-Bag on the other hand needs to take a deep six, and the brunette who tortured Sara, I hate her ass, she needs to be taken out real nice.Linc shoould get to be with his son and Michael and Sara should have a happy ending. It does not have to end in a blaze of death on their parts. It would be great to be able to cheer, maybe cry, but they would be happy years. Ok I’m a sentimental slob…LOL
I agree with the comments here…Season 1 was the absolute best. Season 2 was good also, the Sona prison storyline, with Whistler, wasn’t as interesting, but I still watched faithfully. This season could have been done better, but I do feel like we’re getting to some answers. At some point you have to move on, no series lasts forever. PB did have a good run though. I love T-Bag, I don’t think they’re going to kill him off…too predictable. I think it’ll be a complete shock. Sucre is already written out of the story, he left after the last mission. I could care less about Sarah…she should have stayed dead. Still don’t trust Gretchen. Love Michael! He’s so sexy…wouldn’t it suck if Lincoln got killed? After all they went through to clear his name?
Paula you wrote:PLEASE PLAY IT OUT!!!! AS LONG AS IT IS GOING WELL, THEN WHY STOP IT?
That’s it Paula. It’s not going well. Ratings are down 22% from last year and who know show much from season 1. I like the show and will watch it till the end but it’s a good time to close it and i’m thrilled it’s getting the proper ending it deserves by getting an additional 2 episodes and perhaps more. People come on here bashing a lot of networks but lets give Fox some credit here. Prison Breaks ratings do not deserve additional episodes but Fox is ok’ing it to close out the series properly.
It’s a sad, sad day for all Prison Break fans!!
I really think they could do at least one more season. They can develop the whole Michael vs Lincoln story line that we saw a bit of in the last episode. Also they could do a storyline about who ends up with Scylla and what they do with the BARGAIN info.
I quit watching in Season 3 when they killed Sara, and I came back when she returned. I am also fond of Mahone, moreso than the brothers. In the finale, I’d like to see Sara and Michael together and happy, Mahone able to return to his wife, and T-Bag dead. I don’t care what happens to anyone else.
Somebody mentioned bringing back Kellerman. I thought that was ridiculous since we saw his prison transport get shot up, but what if it turned out to be a group that was trying to take down the company who shot the guards and helped Kellerman escape? That would be awesome.
Also, how about having Lincoln turn bad since he’s working w/ the General? Or have Michael and Sara get married and settle down and Linc becomes the star of the show. We could definitely get another season out of this show, it just needs to go in a new (but not ridiculous) direction.

It’s a good news for all the REAL fans of “PrisonBreak”! Last two seasons more like “Santa-Barbara” than exciting first season…
I am a huge fan of Prison Break! I am disappointed it is going to be ending. I have been watching this show since it first aired and my favorite characters have been Michael and his boy Sucre! I love that Michael is always 2 steps ahead. He is so smart. Of course I hate Bagwell, but the I love the actor that portrays him. He’s great! I think his name is Robert Knepper.
I agree that in the first few seasons the show was much more addictive. My wife and my brother got hooked on this show by watching my season dvd’s! I would like to see the show continue, but I don’t see what direction they would take it.
This show had some pretty good bad guys! Kellerman, the asian dude, the black guy. I really hated the asian guy and Kellerman.
I like the show, but I’m glad they’re ending it, like they said, “before it becomes a parody of itself”.
This is really not something that I want to hear. I have really grown attached to these characters. Why are you doing this to me and the others that love the characters?
For those enjoying a show for what it is & thinking about it afterwards, PB was great. Well cast, exciting. Seas 3 sucked, but Seas 4 has been back w/ edge of the seat excitement. It has been a fav show of mine & I am sad to see it end. How sad will depend on how they wrap it up. It has to be a solid ending. I do think maybe another half season would allow them to wrap as well as let us see what happens to our fav characters. Thanks for 3 great and 1 mediocre season, PB. Better writers might have brought us more and you some deserved awards.
i heard he was here at my country DR, watching some prisons and women’s prisons, then we could think they are going to continue, in some way, or maybe for the things matt said already, the end at the 4 season and then a women’s prison story, anyway i would like to see the end of the PB story, it would be a suddenly anguishing, and great… who’s gonna die, tancredi, scofield, borrows? we don’t even have any idea about it, we don’t really know, but we feel that need to!
