Prison Break gets a mere 5

TV Guide's Matt Roush gives a little review on Prison Break Season 4! While I, & millions of other viewers have been devoted to the show since day 1 & are looking forward to it's return, not everyone is as enthused about it! I don't agree with his mere score of 5, but hey, I can't ask for devotion from everyone on the planet - although it should be a requisite of owning a set LOL!! Anyhoo, here's what he had to say:

TV’s most ludicrously overextended caper series reinvents itself again in Season 4. It’s now “The Dirty Dozen” (give or take a few bodies), as our fugitive heroes are reunited in the United States and recruited by feds for a secret near-suicide mission to break in—for a change—to high-security enclaves and bring down the corrupt “Company.” The frantically violent mayhem, including a tasteless cannibalism gag, is paced swiftly enough that you can almost ignore the silliness of a show that isn’t above resurrecting characters long thought dead. Still, it beats last year’s miserable detour in a Panamanian sweatbox.
