01 Oct 08 Prison Break - Did you know?

According to wikipedia - in the first season of prison break, most of the filming was actually done in a de-comissioned prison called Joliet Prison in Chicago.

Lincolns cell was the same cell they used to house a guy called John Wayne Gacy who was labled the “Killer Clown” after raping and murdering 33 young boys and men and dressing up as a clown called “Pogo”

Many of the film crew refused to go in his cell - as they thought it was haunted!

02 Sep 08 Prison Break Season 4 Episodes 1 & 2 S04E02 & S04E01

Well - that long awaited moment has arrived! Prison break has been thrust back onto our screens for the 4th consecutive season. The last season was cut short due to writers strikes, and unfortunately the lost time that they have made up with this double whammy airing of the new season has left me with a slight sourness in my mouth - wait that’s just my drink!

It was only a month or so ago when i wrote about the fact Sara (Sarah Wayne Callies) could still be alive and thanks to a comment from cyber1000 who stumbled upon this news article from TVGuide.com im please to announce that it is TRUE! Micheals bird will be retuning for season 4!!!

“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.”

I am finally very excited about the return of PB - as before this i had doubts as to how good the storyline could be.

Roll on season 4!

26 Mar 08 Prison Break WILL return for a fourth season!!!

Thanks toa comment from ZacK i am able to confirm for all you prison break fans that it will be returning for a season 4!

HollywoodReporter wrote;

“Fox has picked up a fourth season of its action-drama “Prison Break.”

The network has ordered 22 episodes of the show, which will resume its run in the fall.

Thirteen episodes of “Break” aired this season. The show was one of several scripted programs interrupted by the WGA strike that will reset with a new production order. The most recent run averaged 8.2 million viewers and a 3.5 rating among adults 18-49.

The production on next season will commence in May and relocate from Dallas to Los Angeles (where Season 4’s story line takes place).

A planned spinoff of the show is still in development and will focus on a character that likely will be introduced next season. “

Great News! Thanks ZacK! Only a few months to wait

06 Mar 08 Prison Break - Sara is alive?

I recently posted a blog entry about what is currently happening with prison break, and how i was unsure is episode 14 of season 3 (S03E14) was ever going to grace our screens.

Within a few days a load of comments appeared from other PB lovers from around the globe with their thoughts on PB, and a certain topic arose that has just spun me out.

The actor that plays sara left the show as she was pregnant in real life, and her character was apparently killed off and her head was delivered to lincon to scare him into sticking to “The companies” rules in regards the whole breaking whistler out of prison deal.

A guy called tonu posted this comment that has turned my perception of what the rest of the season (or season 4) could actually end up being about.

“Sara is Alive!!!!!Season 3 u guys will all see she is alive!!!!”

What the hell? How can sara be alive? if she is, then whos head was in that box?

Im not sure how the writers can bring her back, but i do know that from grechins point of view, having sara to use as a bargaining chip would certainly be a way of stopping micheal from killing her when he finds her.

If anyone out there has any news on this, please comment.

If the writers find my blog, then give me some info so that i am put out my misery!

24 Feb 08 Prison Break - Season 3 episode 14? Or season 4?

I have been a huge prison break fan since it started, i think its possibly the greatest tv program ever made! I have recently just finished watching episode 13 or season 3 - which has been described as the “winter finale”.

For a while, the episode details have suggested that this may of been the last prison break ever! Tv.com only go’s up to S03E13 and i couldn’t really find out any new info on what is happening after this episode.

I was doing some browsing last night trying ti see if i could dig up any new information on whether or not we would see Michael and the crew return any time soon, when i stumbled upon this news article from Dallas News.

It talks of plans to move the filming and production of prison break back to LA, as they have been doing recent production in north texas.

“The producers have an exciting idea for next season’s storylines, and unfortunately, it may require moving the series back to Los Angeles for creative reasons”

It doesn’t state anywhere that there will actually be more episodes, but the fact they are STILL making it is a pretty good sign don’t you think

“The news of the potential move came suddenly, Ms. Burklund said, after the Dallas Film Commission was already in negotiations to keep Prison Break in North Texas for two more years, long enough to assure the show of syndication. The two additional seasons would have meant direct spending of $61.6 million and an economic impact of $154 million, she said.”

Could this mean a season 4 AND 5? Based on the events in the last episode, im not sure it could really warrent another tow seasons! I kinda hoped that 3 seasons would of wrapped it all off, as dragging it out too long could cause it to get a bit lost (like lost ) but i guess one more season could be interesting so we can see big mike kick some more ass.

Ill keep my ears to the ground, and i know wiggy will too - so hopefully we’ll be able to find out soon if prison break is going to continue blowing us all away
