I'm looking for an American show that is tight, not boring, and has a coherent, not slow, plot, like Prison Break.

1; "Lost"

This is the most popular drama series on ABC since alias, which was filmed in Hawaii and has become one of the most watched primetime dramas with its ups and downs and great performances by the actors.

The story unfolds from the point of view of Jack, a doctor by profession, and focuses on an airliner that crashes into an isolated island in the Pacific Ocean, ****48 passengers survive. At first, people celebrate their survival and look forward to the arrival of rescue forces, they slowly realize that this island seems to have been visited by people just like them, and their distress signals have been broadcast non-stop for 16 years, but no one seems to have discovered their existence ......

In the face of such a barren and uninhabited island, how can they survive? Without good medical equipment, Jack can only use the most rudimentary way to save the dying people one by one. In his fight for survival, Jack becomes a hero. ......

However, even heroes have secrets to hide... The survivors come in all shapes and sizes, with different nationalities, ethnicities, cultural backgrounds and personalities, and the 14 lead actors include siblings, fathers and sons, friends, couples and enemies. They have to overcome both the harsh weather, in the savage tropical jungle to find food, water, and a mysterious creature in the night issued by the heart of all the screams; constantly people mysteriously disappeared and died, the island is filled with a mysterious atmosphere, no one knows in the island had happened what terrible things ......

< p>More difficult is that they must overcome their personal desires, remove barriers, and work together *** to survive ......

2 "24 Hours of Counterterrorism"

The story takes place in 24 hours a day, and Counterterrorism Squad agent Jack Bauer is the centerpiece of the show, and around him, wives, daughters, presidents, coworkers, colleagues , terrorists, and government officials are intricately intertwined into an overwhelming web. First, someone wants to assassinate the President (Season 1), but behind this assassination is a plot that has been buried for years, which is no longer just a fight against terrorism and political intrigue, it is a test of humanity. One year later (Season 2), on another sleepless day, a nuclear bomb will be detonated by terrorists in Los Angeles, and the President is faced with a difficult choice - is a military strike the best response to show America's fortitude and determination? And Jack Bauer's investigation will provide the President with the final answer. As for the soon-to-be-born Season 3, the enemies there are supposed to be horrific bioweapons, ruthless drug lords and an even trickier White House coup ......

This is a hit TV series that has only launched two seasons so far (Season 3 will begin airing in the U.S. in October this year), and while there are no big names (Kiefer Sutherland has for years has been languishing below the second tier of Hollywood) joining the cast, but missing it will be a regret you'll have trouble making up. Putting aside the show's implied chauvinistic ideology of great power and individual heroism complex, 24 certainly has irrefutable strengths as a TV series achievement alone. This brilliant script, which skillfully combines the 24 hours of a day with the broadcast cycle of an American TV series in minutes and seconds, has accomplished a revolution in the creativity of TV series structure. In the second season, Palmer's presidential image has been further strengthened (this "philosopher king"-like leader can only be found in two places - in ancient Greece and in American TV shows). In relation to the reality of American current events, you will find that the movie's mapping of "911" and the "Iraq War" is so strong! If "Titanic" is the last movie bomb of Hollywood at the end of the last century, then "24" is the first nuclear bomb of American TV series in the 21st century!
