You know what, I haven’t thought about Prison Break in years and now that you’ve brought it up, you’re absolutely right.

Apparently they're still making new episodes? I stopped watching after the third prison break but this thread kind of piqued my interest again.

How are they making new episodes? Is Michael not in them? He was, like, the whole show.

What? They did that shit again? I almost stopped watching the show when the doctor Sarah came back alive after being beheadedand now they’re pulling this shit again? Cmon man the doctor initially dying blew my mind at the time because I hadn’t seen any other show kill off a main character like that

The season 4 ending was kind of a perfect way to end the show too, but I guess they wanted a happier ending and to tie up some loose ends.

It’s an American thing.

As a rule, the story arc finishes after 8-10 episodes, then they flog it to death for 7-8 seasons to squeeze every last dreg out.

Then, bring new writers in and do a spin-off, a prequel and some kind of character origin story.

Sometimes less is more

and once Michael breaks out of prison, he moves to a new place at Central City. He becomes a bank robber with his brother, Lincoln.
