THe first part of season 2 is less than stellar, I agree, but it gets better. The latest episode was really very good and got me excited all over again.
You hit a perfect time to catch up on PB. With the baseball thing FOX is now doing, we won't see a new epiosde for two more weeks.
Don't worry your head with bad tv logic. It gives you nothing but growing annoyance. The suspension of disbelief, that's the way to go. And you better hang it somewhere high. I agree that with a show that takes pride in realism (though I think it takes way more pride than it should be taking - 'Prison Break', when presented with the old dilemma: entertainment or realism, has always wimped out on the second option so far) should be paying more attention to details, but, well, it's not that smooth.
C-Note has been bugging me from the very start. There's never been much sense in him escaping from prison. Well, now that there's a lot of money involved, he's got an extra incentive, but earlier he just wanted to do it for his family, which was just stupid. And C-Note is no lovesick dumbass like Sucre, he's an intelligent man, which makes it even more jarring. Not that it matters now, of course, with all the boys already on the lam. I guess you just have to get yourself some zen attitude and accept things as they are. It really works out for the best.
Why am I even telling you that? You already know that. You're tv pro like me.
Ok, I know it defeats all the purpose in the rant above, but poking fun at bad tv logic is always fun.
Wow, you are starting early with that packing business. Though I suppose it IS easier that way. And getting rid of the stuff is always hard. I do know it's a rational thing to do, but it reminds you that some part of your life is over. I mean it's good, you moved on, you don't need it anymore, but, damn, if it doesn't make you sad anyway. I feel for you there.
