As the third season of Prison Break begins, Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller) finds himself back in prison, only this time it's a down and dirty prison in Panama ruled by the tyrannical Lechero (The Wire's Robert Wisdom). Also sharing space with Michael are T-Bag (Robert Knepper), Bellick (Wade Williams), and Mahone (William Fichtner); while Linc (Dominic Purcell) works on the outside to get his brother free at any cost, with the assistance of a mysterious associate (Jodi Lyn O'Keefe) who has her own agenda. The third season of Prison Break manages to provide pretty much the same kinds of action, suspense, drama, and twists that fans of the series would come to expect by now; which adds up to this season being a success. However, falling victim to the writer's strike, the third season of Prison Break ends up feeling rushed and somewhat incomplete. At only 13 episodes, this is something to be expected, but it still comes off as noticeable nonetheless. Flaws aside, this is still great TV to be seen, and everyone in it is in fine form as well. All in all, the third season of Prison Break while flawed, is still enjoyable, and sets the stage for even bigger developments to follow.

If you like the first two seasons of prison break, you will not be dissapointed with the season 3 dvd. In my opinion, this is one of the best, if not the best television series on tv to date. Like i said earlier, if you like the previous seasons of prison break, BUY THIS ONE. You will not be let down.

Unfortunately there are only 13 episodes for Season 3.
The last episode 313 "The Art of the Deal" was not intended to be the season finale
but rather the fall finale
but due to the writers' strike of the 2007-2008 season
it became the season finale.
 What the F###!!!???? (spoilers, don't read if you haven't watched) July 9, 2008

Okay, WOW... I don't know which is worse... the fact that they're charging for a FULL SEASON (a-la Season 1 & 2) while there's only 13 Episodes (thanks for Nothing "writers".... can't they get "scabs" like any other occupation would do!?)........ OR....... the fact that they made the most Disgusting, and HORRIBLE decision of the Series... when they KILLED OFF SARAH!!!??? Okay, I take it back... it's obvious which is worse... BRING BACK SARAH!!... Come on, we're willing to believe it was just a "look-a-like" or "FX" Sarah-Head in the basket!
Seriously though, what is the deal with the Writers & their HATRED of the leading ladies on this show!? (Veronica Donovan: season 1.... Sarah Tancreti: season 3 --- yes, I'm sure I've mispelled it --- who cares.) And they've "replaced" her now with the X-Lover of the CIA Agent (who isn't even a TENTH as hot as Stacy Keach, aka Sarah!).... and us "Guys" are suppose to drool over who, now??
All in all, even without the death of Sarah, season 3 wasn't nearly as good as 1 or 2. Much of it just wasn't at all plausible (Michael's daring feats inside the jail... getting the "supplies" to carry off said missions, etc. etc. --- SONA isn't Fox River... there's no Pharmacy, Chemical & What-Not Storage Rooms, etc. for him to break into (or buy from) in order to pull off his plans... most of them, totally on the fly!) I found myself asking the same question over & over... How can they expect... putting this delicately... the more Intellectual Viewers (especially those of us with Common Sense!)... to go along with his schemes & scams!? I don't know -- I was taken out of the action quite a bit just by the sheer nonsense of it sometimes; & thankfully I'm not alone in this feeling/opinion on those episodes.
Season 3 gets a 3, Star rating that is.... for lack of believeability, lack of episodes.... and especially for the Bone-Headed decision to kill Sarah! (to make it a real thriller & mystery... they could've simply removed her from the room where she & LJ were... kept the camera on LJ in the room... & then, BANG!, a gunshot...... is Sarah dead?... We're led to believe she is... especially when they provide a well made-up picture for the Brothers, head-wound & all (w/ FX Make-Up & Digital Imaging, etc.)...... but is she REALLY dead... no one knows..... then Michael, assuming she's dead... sets out on the same Revenge mission (aka, Season 3 Finale)... and at the end of Season 4, or 5, or even the End of the Series... SHE'S ALIVE!, they reunite (after killing his way to the truth, to find her)... and they live happily ever after.
See, I'm not a "Professional" writer; but I just gave them the scenario AMERICA would want to see happen.... and the Plot, Events prior & up to, didn't even have to change! But no, rather than be a little CREATIVE & IMAGINITIVE... they go with the simplistic, kill 'em all attitude. I realize this isn't Disney, and there are rarely "happy endings" in the real world.... but come on Writers, & Producers.... Sarah NOT dying is a scenario that should've been Fought LONG & HARD for! (and there's always the angle of the bad guys chopping off one of her fingers & saying, next time you screw with us - it'll be the whole arm.... but no... kill all the women) Well, I know I'll catch hell for saying this in the "comments"; but since Sarah died.... LJ should go too at some point... at least Stacy's acting never brought down a scene!
Prison Break - The Third Season August 15, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
The third season of Prison Break was good television but lacked the key element that existed in seasons one and two and that was Michael's connection to the people around him. In season three Michael is again jailed but with characters that neither he, nor the viewer, really care about. In addition, some characters (not those killed off in the second year of the series)are gone due to the actors' contract disputes and/or accepting spots in other series. Finally, the writer's strike left the series with only half a year and although there is some resolution, overall, it felt weak because it was never intended to be the season finale. Will I buy it? Yes, because it builds hopefully to a better fourth season but as a stand-alone year the third season lacks the plotting quality of seasons one and two.
