audience;18-34
purpose: if you want drama then this review will prove why the show Prison Break is worth the watch. It's purpose is is also include what the show is about for audiences to take a look at the show themselves and see what all the hype is all about.

A show that devises complex yet compelling plans does not only draw audiences into this series, but as well manages to maintain suspense and intrigue throughout and this is just what Prison Break presents to it's audience.

Prison Break is an original American drama television series created by Paul Scheuring which premiered on Fox in 2005. The popular series is the story of two brothers Lincoln and Michael. Lincoln who was sentenced to death for a crime he did not commit is rescued by his genius brother's plan to escape prison. Throughout the seasons key characters come into play while being on the run with the two brothers. Later on Michael and Lincoln search for answers to questions they need answers too, as well as their freedom. They are faced with the people who are responsible for the unjust in their lives, The Company. Leading into it's forth and final season, the brothers face a shocking revelation. Meanwhile the head of the company , General Krantz is after the world revolutionary device, Scylla in which he convinces Lincoln and his team to work for him in exchange for their freedom as well as get rid of a possible threat to Michael's life. However Michael finds himself at an opposite side from his brother as his goal is to also find Scylla and take down the company that destroyed their lives. Lincoln however does not want to do this, and thinks they should just get Scylla back and end it there. The brothers both have the goal of getting their freedom, however now being at the last three episodes, what other revelations come to light? What or who will get in their way of their long awaited freedom?

The show is one that grabs your attention from the first scene to it's surprising cliffhanger ending. By not only having heartpumping drama but also convincing performances, it proves itself as a fully enjoyable drama with loads of edge of the seat suspense. Throughout, Prison Break explores common themes such as justice, crime, freedom and adds a touch of love. The sweet uniting love of Michael and Sara takes you away from the bloodshed and the heart racing suspense. The introduction of new faces in the story has you questioning that character and just what they have up their sleeves. In a setting of normality, where the sun is always shining and people are going about with their freedom, contrasts the darkness and confinement in the brother's lives. The progression of a series of unfortunate events, conflict between each character, and the emotional roller coaster unite into a full on drama/thriller drama.
The captivating topic in each episode is no doubt having the main character's always 'being on the run'. Due to the show containing adult content including violence, course language sexual and drug references, the show's target audience would be between the ages of 18-34. If you are a sucker for action, drama, suspense then Prison Break would definitely appeal to you.

Each character plays their part with the goal to convince, and by the end of each episode they end up exceedingly convincing. The character of Michael Scofield grows on the women as he has all of likes of 'the perfect man', making female audiences root for him. The young actor takes acting to another level as he comes across as very calm but intense. His smart, fast thinking and the devising of his complex plans, captivates the audience and has one asking for more. This is definitely the character that makes the show as good as it is. Lincoln Burrows character is more one that you sympathize with. The show also adds a touch of comedy with the character of T-Bag, who speaks with a southern accent and always makes sarcasm seem so rude yet hilarious at the same time. The character of Sara Tancredi, Michael's love interest is as well convincing and adds the element of her strong feelings and emotions. General Krantz definitely is a character whose evil intentions are so convincing that if you were to see him in real life you would strongly dislike him, just by seeing his mean looking face, which has 'greed' written all over it.

However, hands down most would agree that season one was most certainly the best one. But it would still have your attention now, although not as strongly. On has to have watched all through season one through season four in order to understand the show. Otherwise you will be confused midway as the story takes a complete twist or more like a U-Turn. The storyline is one that is very complex and not one that is understandable right away. It takes convincing actors and explanations from the characters for you to understand. The show gives this to the audience, although not very often which leaves audiences confused. You sometimes wonder, 'why does this guy hate this guy again?' or 'why is this person doing this again?'. This is probably the only thing that one can point out right away while watching. Other than this slight glitch, the show is definitely more than worth a watch, it's worth an all four seasons watch. The introduction of the show began with a very intriguing concept, having said that, just to end with a cliffhanger, the concept in the last three episodes don't get more intriguing than it already is. Take my word, you won't want a break from prison break.
