Trivia:
Paul Scheuring had said that the initial concept for the series (a man deliberately getting himself sent to prison in order to break out again) was suggested to him by a female colleague of his. He thought it was a great idea, but was initially stumped as to why someone would embark on such a strange mission or how he could stretch the idea out long enough for a TV show. He later came up with the idea of the wrongfully accused brother, and the conspiracy subplot. He then started work on writing the pilot script for the show. moreGoofs:
Factual errors: 5 million dollars should weigh about 110-120 pounds. Even for such big men as portrayed in the series it would be too heavy to run around with smile on their faces. Especially when Sucre puts backpack on his back in one scene it looks too light. moreQuotes:
Theodore "T-Bag" Bagwell: [about the rising temperature in the cells] Not that hot?[he points to an African American cellmate]
Theodore "T-Bag" Bagwell: When this guy woke up, he was white!

I have really enjoyed watching Prison Break. This show is Adventureous, Romantic, and a little humor all in one. I do not have many favorite shows, but this one goes right at the top of my list. I am hoping Prison Break will continue airing for quite awhile. Monday nights are always exciting, just waiting to see what comes next, has me on the edge of my seat. The actors and actresses are awesome to watch. The series also has great writers. So I tip my hat to those hard workers that make this show one of the best shows on T.V. Keep up the good work guys and remember you have so many fans that love what you are doing. As I said before, Keep up the good work!!
