Ooh - I was hooked on Prison Break for the first 2 seasons, but when they got stuck in that Panamanian prison even the gorgeousness of the leads couldn't overcome the silliness of it for me. Sigh.

Have you seen the Terminator movies? It basically takes place after T2, I think. The young kid, John, is destined to be the leader of mankind after robots cause the apocalypse 20 years in the future. Sarah is trying to keep the apocalypse from happening while at the same time kicking ass and taking names.
