Is it for me?
Heist fans who like a calm planner outthinking everyone around him will have a good time here, if they can take a ridiculous plan seriously. Wentworth Miller plays Michael with a steady stare that gives nothing away, even while he fakes a diabetic condition to get in front of the prison doctor. Robert Knepper's T-Bag makes every cell visit feel risky.
Before you start
Season one is a single escape plan told over a deadline; later seasons loosen the pace and change setting and format.
5 seasons, 88 episodes, 60 min each, about 88 hours so far
