Lost Or Prison Break - Blu-ray Forum

josh420989 · 04-22-2009, 10:35 PM

I have watched prison break since the begininng and its my overall favorite show(not the best show, just my personal fav) but i recently saw season 1 and 2 of lost and im hooked just like i was prison break, i'll have to admit lost is a better show, prison break is a fun far fetched show i understand, that and some of the actors on pb can't act at all lol....so just wanted some ppl's opinnions on both the shows......thanks

Well, I don't really get what you're asking. Do you want to know what show to continue watching? Which to buy on Blu-ray?

I personally loved Season 1 of Prison Break but thought it went downhill after Season 2.

Lost, on the other hand, has just kept getting better and better with the seasons.

I stuck with Prison Break up until season 3 when an unexpected death occured that was clearly a write-in to make up for an actor not being able to return. That was the last straw for me. I'm biased about Lost. It's probably my favorite TV show of all time. I recommend you watch the rest of it immediately! It's a brilliantly complex character study that will be watched for decades to come and maybe even longer. As the show progresses it steers away from the character studies and more into the actual story of the Lost island and its purpose. When asked if the series finale would be heart breaking or heart warming, the producers said 'Neither. We're going for MIND BLOWING.' I have little doubt that that's exactly what will happen.

This is the same as asking: The Dark Knight or Daredevil?

handisnacks · 04-22-2009, 10:48 PM

Neither. They are both terrible shows. 90% of television these days is complete garbage.

josh420989 · 04-22-2009, 10:49 PM

i was asking what show do u prefer........... prison break has like 5 episodes so its over.......and as far as lost goes i know...... i just ordered seasons 3 and 4 of lost on blu ray........but when the complete breakout edition of prison break comes out on blu ray im picking that up too.... yes season 3 of pb i try to forget about it the fourth season is so much better...not better than the first season but still good

josh420989 · 04-22-2009, 10:50 PM

You are probably one of those guys that hasn't seen an episode from either show.

metsfan1545d · 04-22-2009, 10:51 PM

prison break is great

josh420989 · 04-22-2009, 10:54 PM

well then u have some good taste my friend lol i had seasons 1-3 on dvd and now im upgrading to blu ray so obviously i love the show

hardcorefrokid · 04-22-2009, 10:56 PM

Prison Break went downhill in the 3rd season. Lost is going downhill this season (5th), but I'm still hooked.

Yes you're right, I form opinions based on no actual knowledge. (I have watched the show, or tried too, on several occasions)

Lost: We've crashed on an island! Ok cool we got off, but wait, now we're back on it or something? Wait, no we aren't?! WHAT, We HAVE to go back to finish this story arc! OMG! LET'S GO!!

There is no rolleyes emoticon big enough to describe this show. But I'll try...

Prison Break: Had a great first season but the second season and onwards destroyed it. HAY GUYS WE GOT OUT OF PRISON! I must go hunt them down! Oh NO now we're in a Panamanian prison, we better start ESCAPING AGAIN! We must avenge lost loves now as well!

Kinslayer · 04-22-2009, 11:06 PM

I used to like Lost a lot more then I do now, its all over the place now which is really annoying imo.

kobeeightjp · 04-22-2009, 11:08 PM

24

josh420989 · 04-22-2009, 11:11 PM

yeah i like 24 not enough to buy the complete series of it, at least with lost and prison break u like all the characters, and in 24 the only person u like is jack bauer at least in the new season

matt2009 · 04-22-2009, 11:13 PM

both of these shows are terrible and not worthy of air time

of course this is just my opinion

Penitus · 04-22-2009, 11:16 PM

Lost is the best show.

tilapiah6 · 04-22-2009, 11:18 PM

I love how this has become a vent thread for people who are against both series. I'm normally one of the people saying everything on TV is garbage (which it mostly is) but Lost needn't be thrown in with that. It's the first TV series I've openly recommended to anybody and everybody since Twin Peaks. Chances are the same haters here hate Twin Peaks too.

Edit: Or have never bothered to watch Twin Peaks.

tilapiah6 · 04-22-2009, 11:22 PM

OP, note that not a single person has said 'Prison Break is amazing but Lost sucks'.
