A popular TV show in Canada called “Prison Break” by Global and Fox has started its second season. I haven’t seen the show myself, but I read one synopsis of an episode which was about a brother who tries to free his wrongly accused brother from prison by getting himself incarcerated. Anyway, the good part is that the TV show’s web site is using Google Earth to help viewers follow some of the details. On this special maps page, they have a GE network link which lets you track the fugitives 
each week. Also, they have a collection of placemarks showing some of the world’s most famous prisons . I think more TV shows should think about using Google Earth like this. And, there’s so much more a TV show (with large production budgets) could do with GE to make things really interesting.
Thanks to Canadian Google Earth Blog reader Ted for the tip on “Prison Break”.

THIS IS THE BEST PRISON BREAKE EVER A LOVE ALL U ALL
I cannot get enough of Wentworth Miller!! I have stayed up until 5 in the morning to finish the season on dvd. All week long, I have done nothing except work, feed my children and watch season two of prison break. I am consumed by it. I don’t think I have ever been this addicted to a tv show in my life. I also don’t think I have ever had a crush on someone that I know I will never meet, but what can I say? I am a 32 year old married, working mother with three children who never gets to do anything exciting anymore. Anyway Wentworth Miller rocks my socks and I thank God for his talent!
i would have 2 say prison break is the best thing EVER. i am truly not messing. aswell as having such a brilliant and exciting story line, having wentworth miller as the main guy is just the icing on the cake.i watch it every week,i have never missed an episode.jesus, i love it.and michael, of course 🙂
I love this movie alot. I tried so hard to finish the whole series but can’t. Wenth worth Miller is the guy who played apart in this movie that made it number 1 to me. Not forgotton Michael. My next thing’s make the Prison Break tattoo on my body. (If only my employer will accet that. :-D.
