Did anyone watch this?

It's one of the four or five American TV series that I have followed from start to finish... all 4 seasons.

Just seen the last episode and it was very good. Wrapped up everything nicely (although a little abruptly for my liking).

Nicely ended off though.

Quite agree Oli. It's been finaleville in my house for the last few days and I've seen the following:
Smallville
Supernatural
Lost
Prison Break
House
Dollhouse
The Unit

I have 24 and One Tree Hill to go and then I think I'm free for the summer! :shock:
I've seen 3 weddings, a few deaths and surprise twists etc. But I have to say Prison Break (being a series finale) has been amongst the most satisfying and well thought out. To be honest, all these shows had excellent season finales, but Prison Break just had a really nice arc over the last two eps that raised the bar from recent weeks. I'll be sad to see it go, but glad it got a chance to go out by choice.

We're about half way through season 2 here. I watched the first couple of episodes, but never really got into it, plus it being on after 10 at night puts me off.

To be honest I don't watch much TV. CSI (Las Vegas), Der Bülle von Tolz and Alarm for Cobra 11 are about the only programmes I watch at the moment.

Nope,

Season 4 was the final season though.

So it has ended, yes, but it wasn't cancelled.

Technically, Fox wanted to can it because of poor ratings over the past couple seasons, but particularly season 4. They did however, make the announcement in April, so that the writers had time to wrap it up. Very, very unusual for Fox, who are the biggest assholes for cancelling things at the last minute, or before they've had a chance to do anything.

Realistically, it should've been a one (or two tops) season show. The "event" status of the first season was never to be repeated and the second season maintained the great writing and suspense. Three was poor and four has been up and down. But hey. I still watched it. :roll:

I need help.

Okenobi, don't call something a series finale unless it's the last episode in the series!
You can cause upset otherwise!

I got fed up with PB during the middle of the current series when Linc is working for the Company. I didnt realise this was going to be the last series though so might catch up and see the end. I loved earlier series.
