While exact numbers are hard to come by, during its run, Prison Break itself was purportedly the most popular imported TV show from the US, eclipsing even Desperate Housewives. Needless to say вЂScofieldвЂ™ was quite a fan of the show, eagerly downloading the latest episode throughout each season. (Remember вЂCenaвЂ™ from Chapter 2? This was one of his peers).
