Prison Break Season 5 Finale Review – ‘Behind the Eyes’
Shaun Munro reviews the season finale of Prison Break season 5… Prison Break’s fifth season concluded with an energetic but horribly-written finale that spent most of its time typifying everything wrong with this brutally truncated nine-episode event series.
