FOXĪside from the Writers’ Strike, season three of Prison Break also saw itself having to replace a mainstay of the show from its first two seasons. This prison which is decrepit and lacking simple fixtures like water and air conditioning, we still saw Michael each and every episode wearing a long sleeved t-shirt? Clearly it was to hide his tattoos, but to the story itself it just didn’t make any sense. Sona seemed diminutive and for lack of a better word cheap.
The idea of that alone is actually quite intriguing, but the Sona Prison itself lacked a sense of personality when compared to Fox River which had a wide open world with a long list of intriguing characters taking hold of that world. Now a big selling point for season three of Prison Break was the idea of having Michael stuck in a prison that was run by the inmates themselves. In season three, we actually see Lincoln having to use his smarts to combat Company operative Gretchen Morgan (Jodi Lyn O’Keefe). Usually where we would see Michael being the brains and Lincoln being the muscle. What I will give season three credit for is its willingness to change up the roles for Lincoln and Michael. Thus forcing Lincoln and Michael to work with the Company in helping them break out fellow Sona inmate named Whistler (Chris Vance). But before he could even come up with a plan, the company kidnaps Sara and Lincoln’s son LJ.

Meanwhile Lincoln, who is now a free man, is on the outside trying to get Michael out.
Season three picks up right where season two ended where we see Michael (Wentworth Miller), Alexander Mahone (William Fichtner), T-Bag (Robert Knepper) and Bellick (Wade Williams) stuck in a new prison called Sona. The only issue was the season was equivalent to a tire being stuck in the mud. On paper that would be welcomed news as the Prison Break story would benefit greatly from a smaller episode order. This caused your usual 22 episode order to fall to 13. Debuting in 2007, FOX, like most networks, had the misfortune of being involved in the much publicized Writers Strike. For Prison Break that day came when season three hit the air waves. As with all good things there comes a time when something overstays their welcome.
