2 out of 5 stars Not at all what I expected.   August 27, 2008
Jean P. Vieillepeau (Costa Rica)
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.





1 out of 5 stars Too Much $$$ for Less   August 24, 2008
James Beran (USA)
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 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 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 the time and expect the same pay.


3 out of 5 stars Overpriced!!!   August 23, 2008
byron cromwell (englewood, oh)
First off, not enough episodes for the price. I think they realize people want complete collections so they will pay anything. Not me.

You shouldnt either, this season lacked the edge of your seat cliffhangers as the first two seasons. too much time was spent trying to convince us how bad the prison was rather then concentratiting on characters and plots.

This is a show that would be hard to keep fresh and exciting.It's like a modern Gilligans Island. They should have quit after season 2. i'm sure season 4 will be the last.



5 out of 5 stars It's Still a Good Season, thou it's short but still a 5 Stars for me   August 21, 2008
R. Garcia (LA CA USA)
I am not dissapointed, the show still delivers, liked every character in the show, I just hope they would re-charged it on Season 4 to offset this season 3 being short(13 episodes). But over all, I'd still able to give 5 stars, the show is so addictive and this is the only show that makes me wanna see the next episode on and on until i've realized it's already 4 o'clock in the morning and I have to get in a few hours. I just can't wait for the better season 4 I hope.


3 out of 5 stars What a shame   August 18, 2008

I first have to start by saying that I don't watch any episodes of any show on TV, I always wait for the DVD set to watch all of them at once. I was very close to buying this season until I saw the price of $32 for 13 episodes, so I decided to rent it first. Thank GOD it did, because it is SO NOT WORTH BUYING. Season 3 of Prison Break is such a letdown. I am actually happy that their are only 13 episodes in this season. I just don't see how they were gonna drag this stupid plot out for 22 episodes. I can only hope the show gets back on track in Season 4. I have to say I am a very big fan of seasons 1&2, so it pains me to tell you all NOT TO WASTE YOUR MONEY. Save yor $32 and open up an online movie service account. I have a feeling all of the DVD sets this season are going to be to overpriced. For me it's hard because I am one of those "crazy" people who like to own the shows I love, and to see all of the seasons on my shelf in order, so if I can restrain for buying Season 3 of Prison Break, so can you. The only way I will buy this season, is if it under $15.
