TV Review: Prison Break - "The Sunshine State" Is Evidence That The Show Has Lost Its Plot - Page 3

Part of: Weekly Break With Prison Break

All in all, this last episode “The Sunshine State” threw up even more questions than the writers and producers have the ability, or the skill, to tackle. There are already loopholes and questions in Prison Break that need answering.  However, instead of closing those issues, the producers and scribes have decided to heroically put more holes into the plot. All that’s left now is a withered and tattered storyline in a series that really should’ve ended with them returning Scylla to Self and all of them going free. Instead, Prison Break has set up a mountain of new questions that it now intends to scale using a toothpick. Will we be given a reasonable explanation to all these new questions given that the season is due to end in 8 episodes? Don’t hold your breath, because Prison Break has undoubtedly lost its plot.

    Excellent review, I feel the exact same way. Prison Break has jumped not only the shark, but every other sea creature.

    Your article pretty much sums it up. This show would have gone down as a classic in my book had it wrapped up by season two.
