Surely they should rename the show now that they've broken out of prison.
there is nothing left IMO

I completely agree. It's cringeworthy bad, especially everything involving T-Bag (able to beat-up/kill/build despite..<spoiler, you'll know>) or thick Linc (I'll just smash his brains in, Michael). S2 is one long drawn-out excuse to keep the thing going.
Like you I watched it just to see how it would end, but I only just (a few days ago) found out about S3 being commissioned! OMG!

yeh but T-Bag is a mass murderer, he knows how to take advantage of, fight and kill people. Its not really that unreal, the character of link is tough guy from the streets, he didnt get much education, he runs on raw emotion.
plus why would you watch something that is 100% accurate to real life unless it was a documentary, it would be boring otherwise with no plot or point.

True, but (and this is only my opinion) PB has gone way off the other end of the reality scale - S2 is just too ridiculous!
Shame, because I loved S1, and I think doing S3 is just 100% milking it by forcing the story to keep going (a bit like "Lost" I suppose, although that's only what I'm told I've never seen an episode).

I think season 2 has been superb. PB rawks

I have to laugh a little at this because PB was never on a reality scale in the first place. If you could read a recap of season 1 you'd laugh because most of it is unrealistic. That's why it's a work of fiction just like 24, I mean look at the 6 days Jack Bauer has had to endure. Is any of that realistic?
I think the main problem people have with season 2 is that it doesn't all take place in the same environment, eg, a prison like season 1. Season 1 alone is superb, there were more main characters, the twists were well thought out and added to the main storyline. Season 2 has had to rely on some cheap plotlines, mainly the Bellick one. It's been more action packed and we've seen a more fragile and nervous Michael who has not been in complete control of a few situations. We've seen the different sides to the escapees and Mahone's character has been brilliant to watch. It's followed on the theme of family and how important it it, everything, every character, comes down to the relationship with their family or the relationship they want.
Season 2 is very good, not as innovative and original as the first season but if you've watched any interviews with the creators or actors you'd see what they want to achieve with it. I agree that having another season is stretching the original storyline a lot. I think they could and should have ended it with season 2. They've had a lot of positive feedback from fans, ratings are as high if not higher than season 1. I can see why it's got a new season ahead.

Season 2 is very good. It's a little dull at some point but improves I am glad such program exists.
I don't know how far futher the story can contunue. But the second they lose Lance or Teabag, I'm off.
