Summary: Season 1 ended with the brothers escaping prison. Season two deals with the brothers trying to not end up in prison again.

Review: I know that most of the people didn't like this season very much. Apparently the ratings for the show generally decreased in this season too. I guess if it's called *Prison*Break and it's no longer in a prison it's bound to lose popularity. But I for one liked it as much as the first season. Well except for the ending. (But we will talk about that later)

I like the fact that Mahone got Scofield's tatoos and plans and I liked how there was the detective work and the whole aspect of the 'heroes' having to stay one step ahead or dead. And the fact that there were very few downright villains was great too. I mean it's unbelievable that there are people who are purely evil. That they are doing evil actions due to certain circumstances is much more believable. Not that of course the entire show was believable.

There were certain situations I found totally improbable. Like how non of the actors' hair grew. I mean at some points the hair even went shorter(without reason). You would think that if they wanted to disguise themselves they would let it grow. Also how that Kim guy had so many opportunities to kill them but didn't. And about how while everyone is searching for the fugitives, T-bag was soo rarely mentioned you would hardly think he was supposed to be the most dangerous. The way Kellerman chose to murder Sara was also quite weird. I mean he shot plenty of people. Killed plenty of people. To make a mistake like that is just strange.

But hey it's a TV show. And I, with my love for books with dragons and magic and other improbable things in em, have no problems with that. The show was still entertaining. And it still had me holding my breath for quite some situations.

Of course how people kept dropping off dead every two seconds did kind of get on my nerves. And how it was never over! -__-'

What I think is that they should have ended the show with this season. Happily ever after would have been good. But nooooo. They just had to continue. -__-'

Rating: 8/10
