Sona had proven more brutal than Fox River ever was, and Michael had been forced against his will to plan an escape for the inmate known as Whistler.

Just like in season one, the highlight of season three would have to be the escape from the prison. There were definitely some cool moments here, and some pretty big episodes.

Regardless, it’s not like season three was terrible. Who knows how the plot surrounding Sona would have progressed if not for that writer’s strike.

This is definitely the season where Prison Break started to lose major fans, but it wasn’t something that was entirely within the creator’s control. Season three got the most unfair treatment of the franchise since a writer’s strike during this period short-changed the season by half its episodes, accelerating the plot and forcing the show’s team to make a lot of decisions they otherwise might not have. It’s Michael’s first step in fighting back in this season long battle of wits between two brilliant, very determined people. While in disguise, Michael is able to deduce from Mahone’s wife that Mahone has killed a man named Oscar Shales, so Michael finally has leverage against his opponent. Instead, in “Unearthed” Michael goes directly to meet with Mahone’s wife to learn more about his antagonist.

It was clear there would be no mercy from Mahone, so Michael had to learn about his enemy to fight back.Īll the information about Michael was available to the FBI through his records, but Michael didn’t have that advantage for discovering Mahone's weaknesses. Agent Alexander Mahone wound up being one of the most compelling Prison Break characters, as clever and relentless as Michael, but bent on killing all of the Fox River escapees rather than capturing them. A big part of that was that Michael needed a strong new obstacle after he overcame the prison in season one, so this time around, his biggest challenge was a person. Most Prison Break fans seem to agree that the first season was when the series was at its peak, but season two was still really good television too.
