Admitedly I’m way behind1 in watching Prison Break, but after watching episode 5 last night, it suddenly occurred to me that this season is essentially It’s a Mad Mad Mad Mad World. If you haven’t seen the movie, here’s the plot outline:
“The dying words of a thief spark a madcap cross-country rush to find some treasure.”
Prison Break isn’t exactly madcap, but otherwise that pretty much sums the second season so far.
1 If there’s a downside to owning a TiVo, it’s that it’s very easy to fall hopelessly behind in a series.
