Prison Break

It seems that Prison Break is headed full steam ahead for its 4th season. Last week, BuddyTV posed the question: Does the show really need another season or is it time to wrap things up? The characters are scattered in several places and, let’s face it. We’ve seen Michael break out of prison – more than once. How many times can we see someone pull that off? We asked the BuddyTV readers what they thought. Despite some mixed opinions, overall, people arrived at the same conclusion.

BuddyTV user bobbinrob is on the fence as to whether or not the show should return, saying, “Do I think there should be a fourth season? If there is something plausible that can be done, I wouldn't mind one. But sometimes you just have to stop beating a dead horse.” Meimei42 has a suggestion that Fox may want to take note of: “Maybe a shortened season 4 (thirteen episodes or less) or a two hour special. To me, they've worn out their uniqueness the show had and are skating on thin ice with the way the last season has gone.”

Sportstruth isn’t ready for the show to end just yet and says that anybody else who loves the show should feel the same way. He said, “I would think any true fan of the show would not want to see it end. You get attached to the characters and the story so much.” BuddyTV user longfingers needs a little bit more time before saying goodbye, saying, “I think they need one more season to wrap things up...I love the show and I think that it was a great concept.”

When push comes to shove, the majority of the BuddyTV readers have made one thing clear: they want more Prison Break. Racergoil089 said: “I think they should keep going! I mean, they don't have to keep breaking outta prisons and all but there are so many other storylines that they could run with!” Yes, please. No more breaking out of prisons.
