Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller, THE HUMAN STAIN) and his brother Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell, JOHN DOE) might have escaped prison at the end of series one, but that...
more...doesn't mean that drama and action have to end in this thrilling series' second year. Michael, Lincoln, and a group of escaped convicts aren't just on the run from the law, led by an FBI agent (William Fichtner, INVASION). They're also devoting their time to uncovering a vast government plot that takes them all over the world. Like fellow serial dramas LOST and 24, PRISON BREAK is a complex series driven by smart stories and engaging action that rewards multiple viewings. Features all the episodes from the second series of PRISON BREAK.

I love Prison Break so much that I have decided to do another review. It is completely different to my other reviews. Please read and write comments to what you think and what your favourite characters are and the episodes. Thank you

The second season of prison break was amazing, it tells us about the inmates families and how they get on after the break. I think the actors did really well and it was written superbly.

Me, I love Prison Break, have done since it came out. I'm in love with Wentworth Miller, I have the poster of him and also the 2008 calender. Michael Scofield, his character, was desperate to get his brother Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell). So he tattoos the blueprints of the prison, where his brother is incarcerated, and also tattoos of how to disappear. He gets himself thrown into the same prison to later break him out and then onto season 2 to get the DB cooper 5 million dollars and get to Panama to disappear.

I also love the character Fernando Sucre, played by Amaury Nolasco. Sucre goes on with the love of his beloved Maricruz, he would do anything for her and it was heart breaking when she told Sucre I'm pregnant and I need support so I am marrying Hector, Sucre's cousin and has wanted Maricruz since her and Sucre got together. Sucre was jailed for aggravated robbery and sentence for five years in Fox River State Penitentiary.

I like the character Benjamin Miles Franklin, played by Rockmond Dunbar. He forces Michael to let him join the escape and he is in it for his family because he lied to his wife saying that he was still in the army in which he was honorably discharged from because he was framed for getting stuff from the black market or something. Benjamim or C-note as he was known in prison, got eight years for possesion of stolen goods. I love his nick names he uses in the show.

I quite like the character of Lincoln he is strong and I love it. He was jailed and sentenced for death by the chair for the murder of the vice presidents brother. He was framed so this gave Michael the determination to break him out.

I despise the character of Theodore T-Bag Bagwell (Robert Knepper). The caracyer does sicken me because of why he was jailed. The actor does a really good job of playing T-bag. The character has cool expressions to help with the acting and it is what makes it good.

I dont really like Bill Kim (Reggie Lee). He is devious and a bit of a rat. The actor is nothing like the character, he does a really good job. Bill Kim is a bit of a kiss up to his superiors.

I also dont like Alexander Mahone (William Fichtner) he is a very interesting character. I think the actor does a really good job. He seems to be a very smart and devious character. He is a drug addict and with out his fix he gets really paranoid.

Prison break season 2 is made really well and leaves us on a cliff hanger on the last episode.

The first episode is called Manhunt. The inmates are on the run and being chased by officers as they cross a train track with a train racing through it. Alexander Mahone, a special agent gets assigned for the case and he appears on TV telling America to take a good long look into the faces of the escapees. The inmates steal a car and head to a storage facility in Oswego with Mahone on their trail. Michael has a tattoo reading "Ripe Chane Woods" a Tombstone at a cemetary reads " R.I.P E. Chance Woods" which Mahone tracks down and just misses the convicts just a couple of steps behind, gathering the stuff they need from the tombstone. Sarah, Michaels love, finds an Origami Swan inside, from Michael. Veronica had found Terance Steadman so she calls 911 but she is shot dead by the police and Lincoln hears and is heartbrocken. I also liked Episode 2 called Otis where Lincoln tells LJ to look out for "Otis on the right". Which is code for what elivator to take because Lincoln and Michael have planned to try and rescure LG from the elivator. Agent Mahone finds out and goes in the elivator with LG instead of the Officer.

Another episode I liked was Buries, episode 7. The woman that owns the house, where the 5 million is, her daughter the cop shows up. Linc disarms her; as T-bag points out, Michael must admit they are now all violent criminals, without a way back ever. Sarah is looking for her father when she finds him, dead hanging on the door then she finds a key. Mahone tries to make Tweener talk by teling him to let out his problems. He tells him about Oscar Shales, smart as hell. He killed loads of people. Mahone thought it was his fault he takes pills to calm him down. He tells him and shows him the body's T-bag has killed, offering to go to a nice jail. Sucre hears Tweener was caught on the cops walkie talkie, but they find the money. Mahone stages Tweener dead in a gun fight.

I liked episode 16 as well because it is where Michael and Sarah catch up on lost time. I liked the last episode very much because there is a lot of double-crossing and such. Mahone kidnapps Lincoln blackmailing Michael into giving him his plan for his brother. Later Michael, Lincoln and Sarah think its a happy ending but Bill Kim shows up and is about to shoot someone and so Sarah shoots him in the chest and the police chase them and Michael and Sarah run to a small house and the police are saying "we dont take kindly to murder on panamanian soil", so Michael takes the blame and gets sent to a Panamainien Prison with his old friends T-bag, Mahone, and Bellick. Big cliff hanger at the end.

I got really happy when word was out about season three and I have seen the episodes up to date and the wait was well worth it. I cant wait to see what happens in the end.
