Still a lot they can do with Prison Break. Hopefully season 2 will be as good as 1. I read somewhere that they've only planned on 2 seasons.
Lost - yep, getting boring. The whole story is being dragged out, & nothing gets answered, just more questions get posed.
West Wing I agree.
X Files... Used to be one of my favourite shows at first. The 1st few seasons were very good, but it peaked early & went down hill quickly. Problem was the overall story arc, the "conspiracy story". It sucked. They did way too many episodes on that, rather than the decent "monster of the week" type episodes like they'd done in the early days (Squeeze & Tombs are still two of the best XF eps I think). Unlike something like B5, XF appeared to be made up as it went along, I don't think Chris Carter ever had any kind of overall master plan. The whole conspiracy arc just got more & more stupid & convoluted, full of more & more plot holes & contradictions, & more & more of a mess. If he'd done like JMS did with B5, & had a story "bible" & a full arc plotted out, it could've been really good (I like conspiracy type stories, but XF just got stupid as it wasn't done very well). IMO.

Yeah, I agree with the X-Files actually. It did start getting far to complex to understand and so on. First few seasons were certainly better. Around the time scully had cancer it started getting worse.
The West Wing is very intresting.. Seasons 1 and 2 were good, seasons 4 and 4 were poor. Lacking direction and did not feel like their was drama their and the loss of rob lowe (Sam) and the writers changed. Season 5 was much better, so was 6. Season 7 is very good.
Hopefully Prison break will only be two seasons and lost will only be 3. Especially lost
