McCain, a Republican Arizona senator, said he likes "Prison Break" "because as a fellow prisoner, "I always dreamed and plotted how I would break out of the Hanoi Hilton."

Barack Obama, an Illinois Democratic senator, listed as his favorite TV character of all time SpongeBob SquarePants, since he watches SpongeBob's animated series with his daughters and said his favorite TV shows of all time are "MASH" and "The Wire."
