It's hard to justify its purpose, other than to give all our heroes a happy ending. This short season saw the return of complicated plot lines and twists, throwing fuel on an already extinguished fire. Season Four, though not perfect, managed to tie up most of the loose ups and gave the fans a thrilling two part finale and much needed closure, Therefore, Season Five was ultimately unnecessary. The likes of Burrows, Sara, C-Note and T-Bag all return to bring Michael back home and unravel yet another conspiracy. It is revealed that he is very much alive and locked up in a Yemen prison, having been sent there by an alias known as 'Poseidon'. Season Five is set seven years on from Scofield's heroic death in 'The Final Break'.
Spoiler warning, obviously, and to quote Captain Brad Bellick, played by Wade Williams, "You got a problem with that? Because if you do, please feel free to drop it in my suggestion box." However, there were more than a few moments that had viewers gripping their hair in frustration, due to the complicated and unfinished plotlines as well as off screen issues over the course of the seasons. The franchise kept us gripped to the edge of our seats as we watched our heroes attempting to evade discovery and death. A sixth season was announced as being in early development in January 2018, but was later retracted. The success of the series led to a video game release, a spin-off 'Proof of Innocence' being produced and an official magazine being published.
The serial followed the story of brothers, Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller) and Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell), as they break each other out of multiple prisons and try to survive in an attempt to take down the secret organisation known as 'The Company'.
