    isn’t the coffee cup the guard has the same kind of coffee cup mahone has? drugs in coffee cups?

    First of all, NOOOOO!!! Another long hiatus, just like PB did in the first season? Gimme a break. Now Fox is just testinig PB’s fanbase to mind numbing extremes. Doesn’t Fox have any better ideas to finish running the latest episodes besides that? They should’ve followed a season 2 schedule if that were the case.
    Second of all, LOL Heather. That exact thought crossed my mind watching PB and Heroes yesterday.

    I’m just saying….a mini-TV Watch means that this show is not likely at the top of someone’s list of priorities. Clearly, EW isn’t alone in feeling that way. Fox also has no qualms about kicking one of its own to the curb, and allowing those that are less worth it to linger. Read: On the Lot.

    The way they introduced the new guy was lame – seriously hated it. Plus, he got his clothes ripped off of him but had pants (and better looking pants than Bellick’s) within minutes. Can’t imagine what’s in Linc’s cooler, but I loved the way he drooled over Sofia when she laid down on the beach. And the show is not giving enough time to him. I need to hear more of his sharp and witty retorts. Best Michael part…when he said to Whistler, “Tell me why.” Like Whistler has an inside track to the way Michael thinks and talks. Sure, we’d all like to know why Whistler has to be free within 7 days, but in true PB form, we won’t find out until nobody wants to know anymore. I still don’t care that Sara’s gone and I absolutely don’t understand what thrill people expected to get from a Sara/Michael hook-up. Ugh, I’m feeling sick again. Finally, Sucre’s character needs a mental makeover. Can one person be suckered into criminal activities time after time? Is that realistic?

    I’m thinking Michael gets Sucre/Lincoln to drop something into that coffee, kinda like Dumb and Dumber…

    oh, and it’s LJ not RJ…will be swimming to the US

    i’m a 19 yr old female and i think hugh laurie is one of the sexiest actors i’ve ever seen….those eyes…and that accent (english or american)!!

    Ha Ha. I hope this show gets cancelled soon. I was one of the viewers who invested two years in Michael/Sara and quit watching because she is gone. This headline caught my eye and I had to comment — give these misogynistic producers and their show the ax already.

    I’m with Lilli on the Sara/Michael relationship, nor claim the show is misogyny gone awry. I didn’t care enough about Michael’s fixation with Sara after the first season to really go crazy with her Se7en-ish death. I admit it’s a bad way to kill off a character but I got over it after the commercial break. I was surprised to hear some PB fans label the show as misogynistic. What? I don’t deny a bunch of central female characters got killed in the show (if not having mixed morals), but guess what? A lot of main characters of both genders go deep into many shades of gray and very few of their journeys ended well (C-Note and his family is an exception). Even more surprising are some of them blaming the PB producers more than Fox. Uh, hello? Although I still like this show, PB got extended first and foremost because of them. If they didn’t force them to keep going, I doubt Sara would’ve died in such a cliche (though horrific) manner.

    i’m just disapointed that after two years all we got was one michael/sara kiss… and not even a ‘i wanna rip your clothes off’ kiss… more like a ‘i think i like you’ kiss. maybe they’ll let lincoln have sex this year at least! he’s pretty w/o a shirt!

    I’ve watched every episode of the show up until last night. So long Prision Break, I’m done!

    I find it hard to care about this show as much as I used to. The only way the cliffhanger works is if ALL of the inmates bust out of the prison at the same time.
