Prison Break - Season 3

SPOILERS!








Many of the episodes in this season seemed to drag on and on with many foiled plans, rain delays, and other obvious procrastination devices. It made Michael's breakout plan for Sona take a lot longer than it should have.
That said, there are still many suspenseful moments in this season, mostly involving the hostages and of course including the various prisoners and their would-be helpers on the outside. Former guard Bellick had a very rough time of it, while the cunning Teabag found ways to work the system from the inside. Scofield and Link put their collective heads together to formulate constantly-changing maneuvers, while Luchero made things tough for those inside Sona. And then there was the mysterious Whistler, a prisoner who was so valuable to a certain company that they would stop at nothing to get him out alive.
And did Sarah really die? Link thinks so, but what was really in that box? LJ says he heard her die, but he never saw it. This, of course, leaves Michael to go on a mission of his own at the end of the season, trying to get revenge or find out what really happened.

First off there are only 13 episodes in this pack which I did'nt realise until I had purchased and yet the price does not reflect this.

The show is still good although I would have expected it to be more gritty with the characters imprisoned in Panama.

3 stars overall.

I'm a Prison Break fan. I can't go without missing an episode. I have to see them all.

I'll start by saying that Prison Break Season 1 is near perfect, one of my all time favorite Tv Series. Season 2 was really good, not as good as Season 1 but really good

Then came Season 3...
I couldn't wait to watch season 3, then as I began to watch the episodes my heart was broken and it was a complete let down.

Why you ask?, Well it seems that the writers ran out of ideas so they put MichaeL again in prison ( which is not that bad, hence the title Prison Break ). But this time you don't care about the other prisoners,as you did in Season 1 and 2, there's not chemistry between them.

His brother, Link, on the other hand is outside the prison and is too stupid to do anything right to try to solve the problem( let's call it that so I don't give much away), and when he almost solves the problem he does not have the b#$% to do it!!

On top of that,we never see some characters that we were hoping to see, and then learn that they were "removed" from the series.

My advice buy Season 1 and 2, they are just great!, and in the last chapter of season 2 change the end a little bit and you'll have the perfect series.

Remember when you watched cable and regular TV and there were less than 25% commercials? Do you now feel like all TV is now watching commercials and the movie is an advertisement to buy the DVD? If you buy ½ the episodes (shortage due to strike) for almost full price, why should the studios produce more than 13 episodes and charge the same price as last year. To be fair, using the same cost per episode as last year, the DVD should be under $20. The cost is the production of the program. DVDs are stamped out for around a buck no matter how full they are. I won't buy any ½ seasons. Don't feel sorry for the writers, actors and producers. They all made a good buck before there were DVDs. I'll tell my boss I will work ½ the time and expect the same pay.
