The interaction feels completely natural, not forced one bit. Equally important are the actors and actresses of the show, each of whom executes his or her role with just about absolute perfection. The writers and creative staff have obviously put a great deal of thought into each and every aspect of the show, down to the last gritty detail. Prison Break works for a number of reasons, but perhaps most importantly, because of the writing, much of which can be accredited to creator, executive producer, and writer Paul T. Michael (right) tells Lincoln (left) to "have a little faith." All of this is done by command of the mysterious "Garlic Cutter." But who is she, and why is she so determined to have Lincoln executed? Secret Service Agents Danny Hale (Danny McCarthy) and Paul Kellerman (Paul Adelstein) go out of their way to make sure that doesn't happen, regularly resorting to violent tactics involving both Veronica and Nick themselves as well as Lincoln's family, including his son LJ (Marshall Allman). "Abs of Steel") of Project Justice to find out why Lincoln has been framed for Terrence Steadman's murder along with the evidence to back up such a claim. While Michael is busy taking the necessary steps to get his brother out of prison, Veronica teams up with lawyer Nick Savrinn (Frank Grillo a.k.a. Veronica and Nick start to wonder if they might be in over their heads. Michael also frequently interacts with Doctor Sara Tancredi (Sarah Wayne Callies) in the infirmary, which serves as a crucial component of the prison break. Cooper, Benjamin Miles "C-Note" Franklin (Rockmond Dunbar) who provides Michael with his pharmaceutical needs, and finally, the uber-creepy pedophile Theodore "T-Bag" Bagwell (Robert Knepper) and equally creepy Psych Ward inmate Haywire (Silas Weir Mitchell), both of whom continually serve as threats to the master plan. Other regulars among the inmates include mafia boss John Abruzzi (Peter Stormare), Charles Westmoreland (Muse Watson) who Michael believes to be the infamous D.B. Warden Henry Pope (Stacy Keach), on the other hand, appears to be quite the opposite of Bellick, giving Michael a little leverage when he can for helping him reconstruct a model of the Taj Mahal for he and his wife's upcoming anniversary. Meanwhile, Captain Brad Bellick (Wade Williams) seems to always be breathing right down Michael's neck, giving him hell whenever the opportunity arises (and even when it doesn't). Cellmate Fernando Sucre (Amaury Nolasco) seems harmless enough, but getting him to go along with Michael's plan proves to be difficult as the thing he wants most is to be able to marry his beloved Maricruz (Camille Guaty), and breaking out of prison could unnecessarily jeopardize that with just 16 months to go. Recruiting the proper key players becomes one of the hardest tasks of all. Unfortunately for Michael, life in prison isn't quite as easy and predictable as he might like for it to be. Soon after admission, Michael begins putting his plan into action, carefully mapping out each and every intricate detail: the players involved, the escape route, the tools he will need to make that escape route possible, etc. Michael purposely gets caught, and much to the dismay of legal counselor and friend Veronica Donovan (Robin Tunney), he pleads no contest and gets his wish.Ī stunning aerial shot of Fox River State Penitentiary.

Boy, were my initial impressions wrong or what? From then on out, I religiously watched the show every week up until, before I knew it, I had seen all 22 episodes of the first season.
Prison Break had already become my next television addiction. I acquired the first three episodes from a friend of mine and ended up watching them back-to-back.

Being the TV junkie that I am, I decided to give it a chance. How on earth could this possibly last an entire season? Soon enough, word got around that the show was actually quite good. When I first saw the original TV spot for Prison Break during the airing of 24 - Season 4, I thought it looked, plainly and simply-dumb.
