    Scarey.

    </Breaking Bad S5 spoiler>
    There's another one like that.

    <Breaking Bad S5 spoiler>

    Before Walt sets off to kill Jack and Jesse, he leaves his watch (the Tag Heuer Monaco that Jesse gave him) on the phonebox. Not for any symbolic reason but because when they filmed the flash-forward he wasn't wearing the watch because they hadn't written the part where Jesse gave it to him yet.

    I think the problem with Prison Break was that they broke out of the priosn in S1 and then didn't know what to do next. The whole government/multinational conspiracy thing was totally alien to S1 and frankly, boring as well as ridiculous.
    The only good thing was that they weren't afraid to kill off the main characters.

    PB is a great 1-series show, Lost is a great 3-series show, Heroes is a good 2-series show.

    Agreed. Hat's off to them for coming up with such a hellishly complex plot but a kick up the arse for making it totally unwatchable for your average viewer.

    As mentioned Prison Break did exactly the same. Great concept and very clever but got far too complex and far fetched. I could only bear to see his plans f up every single time for so long.

    I dragged myself kicking and screaming to the end and watched the last few episodes about 6 months ago, the first series was a wonderful piece of television, forever tainted by the bollox that they vomited onto the screen after it...

    This.

I still haven't watched the final series, I keep trying to finish S3 but it goes on for ever and every episode everyone seems to change side about 4 times. Prison Break went exactly the same way. Weird because you'd think the subject material in Heroes could've lasted ages.

    Blakes 7 was so good because it was so crap if you get me. I don't think then can recreate that genre again.

    I was quite annoyed that Alphas was cancelled, along with The Fades, Being Human and now Ripper St.
    Yet rubbish like Atlantis get another series.

    They can't just cancel a show like Alphas. You know? They have to help the viewers let go. Firefly did a movie to wrap things up. Buffy the Vampire Slayer continued on as a comic book. Heroes gradually lowered the quality season by season till we were grateful it ended.
