Do You Like Prison Break?

I was watching Transformers last night and did I mention before that I have a habit of wikipedia-ing everything that I watch? Yup, I always wikipedia shows to briefly read through what the show is about and the name of the characters inside. So as I said, I was watching Transformers yesterday and I find one of the cast in Transformers so vaugely farmilar and I realise he is the series cast of Prison Break. So I quickly wikipedia him and read through Prison Break plot and etc…From what I remember, I used to watch Lost in Channel 5, till I got so irritated with the suspension, I stop watching season 2 and Prison Break is the series that open me up to watch more US shows.
Micheal Scofield (Wentworth Miller) commit a crime so that he can go into the jail to save his only brother, Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell) who was accused of killing the Vice president’s brother. Micheal imprinted the structure of the prison on his body as tatto and together they try to escape out of the prison.  In prison, Michael befriends the prison doctor Sara Tancredi (Sarah Wayne Callies )when he pretends to suffer from Type 1 diabetes, in order to gain daily access to the prison’s infirmary. The brothers’ fight to ward off the execution is aided by their lifelong friend Veronica Donovan, who begins to investigate the conspiracy that put Lincoln in jail. However, they are hindered by covert agents, members of an organization known as The Company. The Company was responsible for framing Lincoln, and they did so because of Lincoln’s father, Aldo Burrows, and his former connections to the company. The brothers, along with six other inmates who come to be known as the Fox River Eight, escape in the season finale.
A show that I will definitely rewatch again and again. I can’t emphasize how smart Michael’s plot was. People need to watch it to understand what I am talking about. I remember discussing this show with Poly guys classmate, all of them tell me only Season 1 is good and the rest are BS. However, I disagree with them after I watch finish all seasons. Season 1 is really Prison Breaking when Michael tries to break out of the prison in his own way. Season 2 is mainly about how they disguise themselve to prevent being caught by the police. Season 3 Michael was send back to a prison to break out one of the prisoner in that jail after being threaten by ‘The Company’ of Sara and his nephew’s life. Season 4 is about how they try to take down ‘The Company’Main reason why people think that Season 1 is the best cause it’s mainly about how Michael tries to break out of the prison and the rest of the season vaguely covers that (except for season 3) But I still find the whole show good because of it plot, so people who don’t agree with me, SHOOO!
