Would I like this show if I loved prison break?


Are they anything alike?

reply

Not at all. This show is pretty bad and the lead characters are a joke. This is like CSI and NCIS, but the bad versions. Which still isn't saying much. The only thing good about this show is Season 1 Episode 'The Bag Man' in which Robert Knepper reprises his role as T-Bag.

I loved Prison Break, and I did enjoy this show. They are nothing alike, though. Like they say in multiple episodes, the name Breakout Kings doesn't make sense, because they are not breaking out of anything, lol.

Youre as obvious as Quentin Tarantinos foot fetish.

Actually sephkane if you think about it in a deep sense they are braking out of their usual roles as criminals or trying to. They are on the other side of the law for once. Therefore Breakout Kings makes sense somewhat.

Sure, if you look at it that way. I was just pointing out that in the show, the characters make fun of the title Breakout Kings because, as they mention themselves, they weren't breaking out of anything.
