SEASON 2
Season 2 ditches the prison setting and places our characters on the run. The scope of the plot has been wildly increased. New characters round out the cast each with their own motivations. We get a very grand game of cat and mouse.
Just like last season the show is always keeping you on the edge of your seat. Shocking character deaths and big moments that change the pace for the rest of the season pop up regularly. The big risks it takes make for a more tense and enjoyable season overall.
While the tense, tight, and dangerous corridors of the prison are missed, the writers show that they can keep viewers interested and fearing for their favorite characters even with a bigger playground. It's an expansion and improvement on what was an already excellent show.
I give season 2 a near-perfect score of 9.9/10.

SEASON 2
I was introduced to Prison Break by my Korean wife. She loves the show & it is very popular there. I thought Season 1 was pretty good. Season 2 is not as good in my opinion. I tried to just enjoy the season but there are a couple things that are too ridiculous i.e. Sucre riding a motorcycle from NY to Vegas in a matter of a couple days. Speaking of Sucre, it would be nice if his character was developed at least a little bit. Is Mari Cruz all he cares about? Really? He doesn't have a favourite soccer team or favourite band or anything?

SEASON 2
The first season of Prison Break was a breath of fresh air in the ever repetitive TV schedules with edge of your seat moments every episode and this second season starts in much the same vein.
We initially follow the exploits of each of the escaped convicts and are introduced to the ingenious methods of FBI Agent Mahone who is tasked with capturing them. Unusually for a TV show Agent Mahone is every bit the equal of the main star Micheal Schofield and this makes for some excellent television.
Unfortunately as the series progresses we become more and more wrapped up in the slightly dull conspiracy behind Lincolns original imprisonment and we start to lose what made the first series so entertaining and so different to everything else on TV. It seems as though outside the prison walls Prison Break is just not the same show.

I like that the characters are now in the open and there is more action in this season.
