Prison Break

[kostgard]

Yeah, Veronica is pretty much a huge idiot - instead of waiting until she actually GETS the insider information, she goes on tv and tells everyone that she has it, basically tipping off the bad guys. Didn't she think for a second that her informer was taking a risk telling her this stuff and that if the bad guys knew her informer was planning to spill, they may get to him first? Gah! Between this and IMing her ex-fiance when she was on the run and then opening the door to the "car accident victim" when they were hiding out, I'm surprised that she can tie her shoes by herself.

At least I can see what she and Lincoln saw in each other - they're both dumber than rocks. Little LJ is smarter than both of them. He must take after his uncle.

I give Dr. Tancredi some slack because she's just attracted to a hot guy when she should know better. As far as she knows, there are no lives at stake and there is no element of danger, even though Michael is acting weird. I think it would be more logical for her worry about Michael saying "good-bye" because he's going to commit suicide or because he knows a fellow prisoner is trying to kill him rather than because he's planning a big escape.

Veronica is in a situation where she knows that people are after her and other people's lives are at stake, and she still pulls one bonehead move after another. When Veronica is dumb, people die. When Tancredi is dumb, she's just being unprofessional and at worst, would lose her job.

I'm glad I'm not the only one seriously worried about Veronica's intellect. She must be one of those people who tests well but has zero common sense. Seriously, what do the writer's think was going through her head while she was cowering behind the car "Wow, that information would seriously help me free my idiot boyfriend. Gee, I hope that FBI guy who's shot tons of people doesn't kill his former partner and if he does, I hope he doesn't take all that evidence that would help free my boyfriend. Oh. Wow. He is. Didn't see that coming. OK, I'll just sit here behind the car until the sun comes up and then I'll prance around town without a bullet proof vest or a gun. Hey look, a rusty hypodermic, maybe I should stick that in my eye."

Idiot. Ugh. I honestly hope someone kills her.

I thought Veronica might bite it in that scene, but I guess they need at least one non-evil woman on the outside in the cast.

But yes, she and Lincoln are both utterly stupid.

But, Oh the chemistry between the two of them when they kissed was totally amazing. NOT, please don't ever kiss in front of me again. It was just so wrong in so many ways.

I can't believe I am snarking on my favourite show. Well there is lots of time between now and March to make me forget about the ridiculous parts and just remember the good parts. Focus, Focus on Michael and T-Bags hilarious walk. Forget about Michael giving up everything because of one lousy stupid pipe. AAAAaaaargh.

Loved the TBag saunter of joy.
After some thought, kostgard is right about the doctor. So smitten, poor thing.

I can't believe that FBI Guy #2 didn't shoot FBI Guy #1 on sight. This does not let Veronica off the hook for not having a weapon, however. I thought she had turned the corner onto Smart Street when she text messaged LJ and sent the coded message to Lincoln. But her decision to go on TV before she actually had any information put her right back on Moron Alley.

I think it would be more logical for her worry about Michael saying "good-bye" because he's going to commit suicide or because he knows a fellow prisoner is trying to kill him rather than because he's planning a big escape.

I wondered, too, if she thought he was contemplating suicide.

It was fun watching Michael come unglued at the end. However, I find it hard to believe that the pipe was fixed that quickly.

Does anyone still watch this show?

Holy crap, that was a great episode. Even though I know some of what is going to happen, I still get a near heart attack through the entire thing. However, something really bothered me. When the lawyers went for the appeal, they said they didn't have evidence, but doesn't that picture of the agent with the gun in his hand that LJ took on his camera phone count for anything?!?!?

It's Hollywood, pure entertainment, calm down.....

Bellick is evil. Did they say what happened to the crazy Russian guy, I forget his name. He was still alive in the last episode and going to the hospital right? Or did he die?

I don't know how ya'll feel about spoilers, so slam me if I'm doing the wrong thing, but Uli (that's what I call him, I'm stuck in Big Lebowski) aka Peter Stormare came and filmed more episodes. However, they could just be flashbacks, but I'm pretending he's definitely back.

ETA: Now I can't find the damn article where he said he shot some more footage for Prison Break. I hope I really did read it, and it wasn't wishful thinking that became true in my mind, because I LOVE this man. Maybe I should go into Embarassing Celebrity Crushes.

No mention of Abruzzi at all.
