All in all, Prison Break has a lot of potential. The show has a nice pace to it that is faster than many dramas, but not MTV-like. The show has a very good cast and a rising star in Wentworth Miller. After roles that vary from a younger version of Anthony Hopkins's character in The Human Stain to the man of Mariah Carey's dreams in the videos "It's Like That" and "We Belong Together," this may be Miller's breakout role. FOX looks to have another show that could very well join the ranks of the network's 24 and House, M.D. as one of the best dramas on television. Here's hoping that the producers can keep the quality up across the season.

People often say that i'm very picky of what's on TV. Mostly that's said because for a while there was abosolutely nothing interesting on TV and I wasn't interested in watching Desperate Housewives re runs like everybody else. I was patiently awaiting the return of my two favorite shows, Lost and CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. I simply gave up after a while and I vented my frustrations about those goddamn reality TV shows and unbelievably stupid teenage dramas that never seemed to reflect reality, on anybody that was willing to listen.
A show like Prison Break was my saviour from boredom. Monday is now one of my favorite days of the week. Everyday is a countdown to the next episode where I know I wont be dissapointed. Every character is interesting, if not likable and i'm absolutely mesmerized by every desision these characters make.
And I whole heartedly agree that Wentworth Miller was a surprising talent. It isn't necessarily a very complicated role to play, but that's not entirely true. Not just anyone could radiate the same emotion that Miller's character Michael does. Michael is rather serious and determined so far and that one hard stare he has that is part of his mask of composure. But once in a while you'll see that mask fall as the plot takes yet another twist and turn.
Hopefully Prison Break will be renewed for a second season because this is how TV should be. It's very dissapointing when great shows like The Inside are cancelled because not enough people like the show. Or how so many people are ignoring the pure genious that is Arested Developpememt.
So you that we have both reached an agreement. I just wish most 14 year old girls like me understood that there is more to the boring and overused plots of The O.C.

I've found another rap-formation with a song called 'This is war'. Though, I haven't heard the song yet, so I'm not sure if it's THE song played on Prison Break (Episode 2)...
