    :lol: Prison break was a really good TV series, however, it just ran too damn long.

    I kept wondering, they already broke out of prison, and then 3 or 4 or even 6 more seasons after that.

    Good show though, damn.

    It's about fucking time that show stopped.

    It should have ended after the first season and they dragged it out for far too long.

    I'm happy about it. I just wish more shows would stop when they say they're going to instead of trying to pull more money out of the show. I just hope LOST finishes when they say it's going to and that Scrubs doesn't carry on after everyone in the cast quits. Stupid TV shows...

    The show was about a lot more than just breaking out of prison, season 2 was brilliant, and season 4 has been pretty awesome too. Season 3 suffered because of the writers strike, but if you look in the whole context of the show, it does make sense and it's only natural progression as to how the show is now, and I still enjoy it.

    It's a shame it's ending, but I'm looking forward to the last 6 episodes, and also when I found out about this a few days ago, there was speculation that they may put to specials on or something to tie up the story, so, we'll see.

    It got kind of lame after they broke out of prison and the writers were trying to find an excuse to get them back in there. It could've worked out, though, if it wasn't just so they could have them break out, again and again, and again...

    I stopped watching towards to end of season 2 and I don't regret it.

    About Lost, thank god, they set a number of seasons they're going to stick to and they actually have a whole plot in mind (which people don't seem to want to acknowledge. Not you, Dave, just mean people over here who stopped watching it. :lol:) I hope, Scrubs gets a do-over to make this season the last one and finish it up nicely.

    I love Prison Break. Although I kinda felt like they were just trying to keep it running for past what felt like the natural time for it to end, but I did enjoy the twists.

    Plus Wentworth Miller is hawt. :p

    I really like the fact that the writers of LOST said when they're going to end it and I think more shows should do it. It just seems like the shows have no direction if there's no end date to them.

    I just hope the end of some of these shows does all of the previous series justice.

    I just hope Scofield dies, that would be the perfect ending to the show.

    The new season has started really well, but apparently the series is continuing after this one has finished with Zach Braff, Judy Reyes and Bill Lawrence all leaving beforehand, which I'm not really sure about.

    Exactly, I don't understand people who say LOST is like shows without direction and just in it for the money, trying to keep things going for as long as possible.

    I don't think there's a more driven cast of actors and team of producers working right now.

    I've seen the first couple of episodes now, it's pretty good, although I haven't really laughed as hard as I used to before. I thought bringing Courtney Cox in to be chief resident was the most brilliant thing they ever did and I miss her now she's gone again. xD

    I don't reall see how they're going to go on with the show without Zach Braff, he's obviously the foundation of the show, it just won't work. Unless they do the same thing with them as Lavern... :lol:

    I wouldn't miss Carla much and writing her out probably wouldn't be too hard. No Braff or Lawrence will be a big miss though.

    I should probably start a Scrubs thread instead of taking this one OT.
