Prison Break, Season 2, Wentworth Miller, Dominic Purcell

A builder gets himself incarcerated to engineer the escape of his death-row brother, who was framed for killing the vice president's brother. While the setup requires a leap of faith, the drama is consistently taut as Michael Scofield, who helped design the prison and has its blueprints tattooed on his body, maneuvers to assemble an escape plan and team, while friends investigate his brother's bogus conviction on the outside.

Ask Matt | 4/4/2008
Q: I know you're no fan of Prison Break, and on that we'll have to agree to disagree. But what do you think of the show's producers spoiling their own plotline by announcing the return of Sarah Wayne Callies as Dr. Sara? Couldn't they have left that surprise for the viewers? Just like when the producers of Lost announced Michael's return before the season even started, they sort of took the fun out of it for me. I had some suspicions that Dr. Sara could be coming back, but couldn't they have ... read more
Prison Break Stunner: Sarah Wayne Callies Returns! | Ausiello Report | 3/27/2008
Prison Break fans, prepare to seriously lose your heads. Sarah Wayne Callies — whose rather ugly contract dispute with producers led to her apparent decapitation last October — is returning next season. Full-time. As Dr. Sara Tancredi. Head and all. Seriously.How? Why? When? WTF?! All legitimate questions. Good thing I just hung up with Mr. Answer Man (aka executive producer Matt Olmstead). So... I take it that wasn't Sara's head in that box....Matt Olmstead: Yeah, that wasn't.But initially it was supposed to be her head. What changed?Olmstead: What changed was.... once we realized that the emotional hook of Season 3 was going to be the death of Sara, when we didn't get the actress to do it, as soon as we wrote it and shot it, we realized that there was actually a way she could still be alive. Lincoln glanced at the head in the box for a split second. That could've been anyone. He wasn't about to pull it up from the hair and inspect it closely. And then we were fairly... read more
Prison Break Continues for Fourth Season | Today's News: Our Take | 3/24/2008
Fox has ordered a fourth season of Prison Break, to run for 22 to 23 episodes... and all the way to the Left Coast. Sources tell TVGuide.com the serialized thriller — which will pick up where the strike-shorted Season 3 left off, with Michael on the loose and seeking revenge against The Company — will relocate to Los Angeles. The show's production was based out of Texas. Of course, your first thought will be: Hey, now Jack Bauer can lend a hand! Except he, as bad luck would have it, is stuck 3,000 miles away in D.C. for Season 7. — MWM read more
From Prison to Office, Stars Don't Know What's Ahead | Party Central: The Latest Buzz from Your Favorite Stars | 3/3/2008
The WGA strike may have come and gone, but don't assume your favorite TV stars know any more about what the future holds than you do. "They haven’t told me anything," Prison Break baddie Jodi Lyn O’Keefe sighed at a Beverly Hills soiree celebrating designer Paige Adams-Gellar and celebrity trainer Ashley Bordon’s new book, Your Perfect Fit. "I don’t even know if I’m alive or dead!" (Unless "Susan B." is an awful driver, based on the season finale all seems well for her...for now.)Similarly, The Office's Angela Kinsey, who is seven months pregnant, is also completely in the dark about her own on-screen fate. "We go back to work this week," she said. "Maybe I’ll be standing behind a filing cabinet or the copy machine a lot. I don’t know yet. But, with our great writers, nothing would surprise me!" — Dana Meltzer Zepeda read more
Ask Matt | 2/29/2008
Q: Although I am a fan of Prison Break, I am an even bigger fan of Friday Night Lights, and I didn't appreciate your comment that people who enjoy a show like Prison Break are the reason why a quality show like Friday Night Lights can't find enough of an audience to stay on the air. What is wrong with liking both of them? You like Heroes, which you freely admit is an escapist pleasure that is uneven in its execution, while still enjoying top-quality shows like Lost and Friday Night Lights. I ... read more
