The Breakout Kings
The idea is a bit ridiculous: a band of prisoners are brought together to help a special government agency capture prisoners who have escaped from high security prisons across the country. It makes for a good pilot, but seeing the same basic outlined used episode after episode gets a bit tiring after a while. Or it would if the cast wasn’t so much damn fun to watch. The stories are paced pretty well so that each of the misfit Kings is given enough time to develop as a real character and not just a cliché personality. Jimmi Simpson is particularly good as the brains of the outfit, and Domenick Lombardozzi adds edge and depth to the stories as the cop leading the group.
