Prison Break was, and still is one of my favorite television shows, so when i opened this boxset on Christmas morning i was very pleased, it comes in brand new packaging, which consists of an outer cardboard sleeve (A real pain to open without tearing) and an inner plastic case containing all 80 episodes, spread across 23 discs, it also includes 'The Final break' - the final episode.

The boxset is of a very high quality, the artwork on the discs is the same as the artwork on the discs if you were to buy the seasons separately so this is simply a repackage, however, it is still very nice, the artwork on the box itself features Michael and Lincoln from season 1 (The best season) - the show declined after season 2 in my opinion, this boxset also contains extra's from each season, such as some deleted scenes, interviews, and 'making of' documentaries, i haven't watched them yet but they seem interesting enough.

the price of this boxset is around £30, and if you're a fan of the show like me, you will love this entire series, likewise if anyone likes 'prison escape' type movies in general, such as the Shawshank redemption, they will also love this show.

************** Spoilers ***************
quickly below i will outline the premise of the show and what happens in each season.

Season 1 - Lincoln Burrows is wrongfully accused of murdering the Vice presidents brother and is placed on death row awaiting execution, His brother, Michael Schofield hatches a genius plan to rescue his brother, and escape from the prison - My Rating 10/10

Season 2 - On the Run from Prison, the FBI/CIA chase the escapee's across America, which comes to a climax in the final episode where Michael is recaptured, this is a very gripping season, my rating would be 8/10

Season 3 - Recaptured..Michael finds himself in a Panamanian Prison, which you guessed it...he breaks out of again, this time he has to break out some guy called Whistler, a really annoying little man, and one of the many reasons why i dislike season 3, still this is a pretty watchable season, it's shorter than the the others as it was made during the writers strike of 2007... my rating 6/10

Season 4 - Now the show gets ridiculous, Michael and his gang are given a chance of immunity, and a chance to be free once and for all if they can recover a set of mysterious cards, in the later episodes Michaels 'dead' mother shows up and it all gets very silly, but still, quite watchable, my rating 5/10

The Final Break - Michael's wife Sara is put in prison for some reason, so Michael breaks into the prison, and breaks her out, in doing so, he makes the ultimate sacrifice, this is like a mini-movie, my rating for this would also be 5/10

This was an excellent TV Show, which sadly overstayed it's welcome, the boxset can not be faulted though, it has everything you would want in a boxset, so for that reason i am giving it a 5 out of 5
