My initial impression of Fox’s new show Prison Break (the pilot for which I watched last night) is good overall.
I have kind of a hard time imagining how they will fill a whole season (nevermind the idea of any following seasons, but I said the same about Lost), but I’ll watch anything with a guy who has plans for an entire prison campus and clues for how to exploit said campus’ weaknesses tattooed on his body.
“The tattoo takes about four to five hours to apply, if you’ve got two people working on it,” Wentworth explains. “It’s a series of decals that fit together like puzzles. They’re kind of more sophisticated versions of what you might find in a Cracker Jack box. You lay it down, spray it, peel it off and then seal it with glue, paint in the filler parts. It’s apparently the most complicated imitation tattoo ever created, done by the art house that did all the special effects for ‘The Passion of The Christ.’”
It is impressive.
I missed the first hour (doh!) but the second hour was great! At the very end I was curled in a ball with my hands over my eyes squealing like a little girl.
Can’t wait to see how he wins over all the characters to work with him on escaping (i.e. creepy old mob guy and hot doc).
My wife almost mocked me for Tivoing this mug, but then she was hugely engrossed after 15 minutes. I kinda hope it is a 12-episode run, because I too fear that it could get tired, but who knows? Maybe they’ll play up on flashbacks or take stuff from a different angle.
Fox order 22 episodes. I think they can do it and still keep the show intressing. Also can go on. They could run into a problem digging. The show can also cover after they break out, what goes on and what they have to do.
I love this tz show because it is ineresting.I eager to see the first episodes(maybe when the show will repeat).Just when you think it can’t get better they pull you back in.The best tv show in history!!!!
