Prison Break: Women’s Edition?
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Drama, Prime Time, FOX, Prison Break,
Huh. This is interesting news—Prison Break is planning to spinoff into a women’s prison series. I don’t know. Prison Break lost me sometime in the middle of the second season. After the gang escaped, I just wasn’t that interested in seeing how it was all going to turn out. My husband has continued to watch this season and assures me that this year is better than the last, but I’m not a beliver. Plus, I’m kinda done with listening to Wentworth Miller’s whispery soft, always calm and collected character. I mean, does this guy ever get freaked out? Anyway, back to the women’s prison. The spinoff is tentatively called Prison Break: Cherry Hill, and will feature a new character (Molly) who will be introduced on Prison Break. The guys behind Prison Break, executive producer Matt Olmstead and co-executive producer Zack Estrin, will write the script. No word yet on who will play Molly or when this season she’ll show up… sounds kinda sorta vague, no? But wait, there’s a Plan B—if Cherry Hill doesn’t get the green light, Molly will continue on Prison Break as a regular. Which is more than can be said for Dr. Sara Tancredi, whose head was last seen in a box.

‘Prison Break’ Premiere A Ratings Disappointment
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Action, Daytime, Prime Time, FOX, Prison Break, Ratings,
Who says the third time’s a charm?
At 7.9 million viewers, Monday night’s premiere of Prison Break was a ratings dud. Season Three’s opener was down approximately 2 million as compared to last year. Even reruns of How I Met Your Mother and The New Adventures of Old Christine fared better in the same time slot last night. Unfortunately, this slow start doesn’t bode well for the rest of Prison’s season. Come next Monday, the inmates will be facing stiff competition from Dancing With The Stars and a new episode of Mother.
But should the execs at Fox really be surprised by the low turnout? I think it’s safe to say they underestimated the fans who wanted more than rehash. This time it’s Lincoln trying to save Michael? What a twist! Half the cast is locked up in the same prison? Convenient! Pretty boy Michael Scofield hasn’t been turned into someone’s b**** in that hellish Panamanian prison? C’mon!!!! Does anyone honestly believe he could survive with that steely glare alone? I was already miffed when I heard Dr. Sara Tancredi would be absent from the show; last night’s lackluster episode has just compounded my disappointment.
Granted, this show has never been based on plausibility…but it was once based on creativity. Just knowing the series could be extended for another two or three years is already tiring me out. And since the writers are constrained by the show’s title—who will eventually end up in prison next? Lincoln’s son?

Scoop On FOX’s ‘Prison Break’
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, FOX, Prison Break,
Remember believing Prison Break was going to be a single-season show? Ever wondered how long the jailbirds could keep running? Still hoping the series can eventually finish on a satisfying and climactic note?
Well it may put a damper on your Season Three viewing enjoyment to know an end is probably nowhere in sight. Wentworth Miller (Michael Scofield) is already hinting that another two or three seasons could still be in the works. WTF?? Let’s just hope Prison doesn’t run creatively dry like that other FOX show, 24.
Meanwhile, I have to lodge another complaint against the series. What does it have against strong women? It was hard enough not to take it personally when Veronica (Lincoln’s girlfriend) was killed off early last season. Now it’s being reported by TV Guide that Dr. Sara Tancredi—Scofield’s druggie honey—will soon be MIA as well. It’s not known why or how the character will disappear, but I find the decision to be quite suspect considering actress Sarah Wayne Callies just become a mother in real-life.
