Prison Break Series Finale - wtf?

I can't believe it's over, moreover, I can't believe it lasted so long....

I loved the show, but after they broke out of Fox River, I didn't know what more could be done, then the Panama "Sona" then the escape, then the company then Scylla... byt the end I have to admit I was getting tired of the constant running... I wanted the happy ending for everyone... well.. not T-Bag, but we will get to that ;)

did it really start in 2005? When I saw the grave stone at the end of the finale I was thinking - wtf?

But yes, it all supposedly happened right after another, despite it's several years on air.... so it makes sense.... or does it...

It said "4 years later"

Let's Break it down:




Season 1 - Burrows is put in prison for a crime he was framed for by "the company" for which Burrows and Schofield's parents were heavily involved, his brother gets put in jail only to break him out - they meet a bunch of characters and escape as the Fox River 8

Season 2 - They are on the run. The Fox River 8 are trying to not get caught and eventually many get caught along with special agent Mahone and put into the Panama Prison which makes them wish they were back at Fox River for sure.

Season 3 - This season continues inside Sona while Burrows is out thanks to Kellerman exnerating him. Sona is nuts since a riot the year before and is run by the prisoners. We meet Gretchen who wants Whistler broken out of Sona and the kidnapping, threats and rush to get him out begins. Sara is beheaded (allegedly, we learn later she wasn't - of course) and it is game on for revenge.



Season 4 - We learn Whistler worked with Mahone trying to bring down "the company" Some of them get out, the others get out after Sona burns down. We meet homeland security op Don Self and we are all back in the USA. Scylla becomes the focus of the show - getting it - selling it - saving it - getting it back.... we learn the Company's stretch, we learn about Burrows and Schofield aren't true brothers, we learn Cristina, their mother is alive and dangerous. After much back and forth we also learn Sara is pregnant, Michael has to choose to save his brother and give his mother Scylla, or save Sara and his unborn child and give Scyalla to The Company. The brothers are framed for another murder and it is a crazy pinnacle of drama until the very end when some old friends come help and Kellerman returns to give them all freedom in return for Scylla which will go to the UN. After some uncertainty, they trust him and that is how it ends... minus T-Bag who they throw under the bus, with just-cause... and Krantz, the company leader who is given teh electric chair

Fast Forward 4 years...
everyone reunites, we see lil Michael Jr. in what is likely Mexico to remember Schofield who is shown by a gravestone....

So, if the show began in 2005 and the gravestone scene was shot 4 years later, why was his death 2005? did he die right after all of the excitment? did he see his son being born? seriously? what happened? I wanna know more!!!

I have to say the most under-appreciated character was Sucre.... he was just funny, sexy, awesome non?



It seems crazy that they fit so much into that 4th season, it was like, ok, we are going to end it but we need to have everything make sense and wrap up so- - what should we do?

I was sad it was over, sad he died, but glad to see everyone else doing well... overall a good series that perhaps went on a little too long....



Also, for fans or non-fans - who is hotter? Wentworth Miller or Cominic Purcell... I gotta tell you, they are both eye-candy, but while Wentworth is cute, Purcell has that rough, raw hottness non?
