TV shows

Just finished another episode of LOST (season 4 episode 2), and i'm glad that the plot is moving. After being stuck on the island and just expounding on the Others in season 3, finally, the story is moving on.
A new angle is introduced, and the same intriguing 'omg what on earth is going on' feeling is left behind after the episode ends with another trademark cliffhanger.

I'm still a huge fan of LOST and Prison Break, despite what a majority of the viewers are saying. Many people I know have given up on LOST, themselves getting lost in the plot somewhere in season 2 or 3. I don't think the plot is particularly confusing, as many of them say, but intriguing is a more fitting description.
There is alot to keep track of, definitely, but that's what makes the series such a hooker. It keeps you hooked - to get more answers.. only to introduce new perplexing mysteries.

Prison Break has gotten slightly draggy in its 3rd season, but the latest episode was a ridiculously irritating cliffhanger which just leaves you going 'COME ON! there has to be 5 minutes more!'.
Although the show is still kept as exciting as possible, it is impossible to match the first season's intenseness, wittiness or heartracing-ness. That's the sad thing about making too good a season - there is the pressure to match it, and the chances are you won't be able to do it.
Prison Break needs to answer some of the questions it has left though, like who on earth is Susan and James Whistler and what are they working for? Unlike LOST where new questions are brought in almost every episode, Prison Break lacks the luxury of diversity and are hence stuck on the same questions that are repeated every episode such that it's starting to get irritating.
