Prison Break: Boxed In

Oh I am just so incredibly happy to have Prison Break back on television! Come on FOX & Writers! You can work it out. Do it for the brothers! Do it for LJ! Do it in memory of Sara!!!! Please!
Thoughts on tonight…
Whistler- Seriously I wish we had some more clues as to what he actually knows that The Company wants from him. We haven’t had any hints of anything since way back when they had the bird book. What exactly does he know? I don’t trust him. And it makes me feel bad for Sophia too because she genuinely seems out of the loop. I really hope the writer’s have something at the end of this storyline that is believable, because I can see it being a giant letdown.
Sucre- Well I have to say I totally called it. It was SOOO obvious that the fight that he and Lincoln had in the hotel lobby was intentionally to be overheard. How can Susan B/Gretchen not see right through that? Maybe she doesnt own the Season 1 and 2 dvds like I do….kidding….
The General/Torturing- I have to say I think that the torture was a little downplayed. You would think they would keep Michael in the solitary box a lot longer. And why was the General so easily swayed. So we know Michael was telling him the truth, but why would he believe Michael? Also, wouldnt they try to get more information from Susan B/Gretchen? I feel like the whole having her strapped in and sprayed with water was not very effective. So she’s been tortured before…does this mean the general wouldnt be able to get any more out of her?
Susan B/Gretchen- Hello little hidden knife in my belt lady. Who do you think you are? 007? Honestly. Why would they have ever even let her out of the car with them? Why would they have even let her come in the car in the first place? The General wasn’t very good at any of this…
LJ- That kid is going to need some serious counseling. He had to hear stupid beeotch Susan B cut off Sara’s head. It makes me sad just to type that.
T-Bag & Bellick – Looks like T-Bag is still just pulling all the strings in the background as usual. I really love Robert Knepper as an actor, but they need to give T-Bag a little more this season. I miss his nasty yet really funny character. Bellick is getting a larger part. I am looking forward to next week after the previews to see if he really does throw down a chicken foot with Sammy. What would happen if both Lechero and Sammy were killed? Something tells me that this may put T-Bag right where he wants to be….in power. Hmm? Agree? Disagree?
Revenge- Michael going after Gretchen to avenge Sara? Will Michael be able to actually kill someone? Because through all of this…all three seasons…he has always been the good guy having to do bad things to help people. Will he really have the ruthlessness and anger to be able to kill for Sara? I really don’t know anymore. I think he is much less innocent and sure of himself as he was in season 1. Which makes sense since he doesn’t have all the answers. (Like T-Bag says “Lets see if he has a tattoo to get himself out of this one”) He has been sort of flying by the seat of his pants for the last two seasons. Where can he go? Who has he become? If he kills Gretchen does that make him just as bad as The Company?
Also…Michael Scofield speaks spanish???? What?

Prison Break: Tonight it’s BACK!!!
FINALLY! Something decent to watch on television! Honestly this writer’s strike is going to make me crazy. I have been in serious denial without The Office, Prison Break and Chuck keeping me entertained every week.
And guess what! It’s coming back and its going to be better than ever! I am so excited!
***Spoilers!***
Check out this interview with Kristin from E! and Dominic Purcell…
Hey! Thanks so much for calling, Dom. How were your holidays?
They were great. I went to Paris to promote Prison Break, went to London, and in the meantime, I was saving babies’ lives…
Yeah, what is up with that? What happened?
My brother and I were traveling to the west coast of Ireland to surf, and we saw this lady on the side of the road screaming and freaking out. We pulled over, and she was holding her baby, and her baby was blue and not breathing and choking, obviously. And my brother and I did CPR, the whole nine yards, and it survived.
That’s incredible. How do you know CPR?
I’ve got four kids. I’ve got to know that stuff. But what was really bizarre was after we brought the baby back to life, we were in some stranger’s house on the side of the road where we called the ambulance, and the person in the house wanted my picture and autographs…It was just bizarre. [Laughs] My brother and I are superheroes.
On- and offscreen, right?! Well, on behalf of all the Prison Break fans, bless you for being on a show that’s coming back on the air. We need something good to watch right now!
I know. It’s pretty bad, right?
Yeah, so what can you tell me about the five new episodes?
Expect a breakout—and you can expect the usual suspects attempting to break out with Michael. A few of them make it, and a few of them are left behind.
I hear Linc might be getting some action?
Well, that’s f–king news to me, because Lincoln has yet to be laid! There’s a whole lot of jesting going on, but no action.
Well, I’m hearing Sofia starts pulling away from Whistler and getting closer to you…
Yes, that’s true. I definitely think Linc has a soft spot for Sofia and, likewise, her…So, we’ll plant a few seeds as to what may happen between the two of them.
Word is you shot scenes on location in Florida, including some underwater stuff in the middle of the ocean. What was that like?
It was awesome. I loved it. And I’m gonna give you a little scoop. [Laughs] Wentworth and Bill Fichtner refused to go out there because they are scared of f–king sharks! But me and Whistler, Chris Vance, the two Australian he-men, decided we could deal with it, so we went out, and we were bobbing around in the middle of the Atlantic. It was fun. The water was warm, and apart from the occasional great white that came along, it was good.
You also have a big stunt scene involving a Panamanian bus that Lincoln commandeers…Are you the new Keanu?
I shot that in Dallas. It was a normal, crazy-ass stunt where Lincoln gets hold of a bus and crashes it through a bunch of telephone polls.
There’s a rumor the American woman who visits Michael this season is the subject of a spinoff called Cherry Hill. What do you think of that? Is a spinoff a good idea?
It depends who you talk to. If I talk to certain writers on the show, they’re like, “No, there’s no such thing.” And at one point they were trying to make it happen, but they couldn’t find the girl, so now Fox is done with that idea. So, it’s really up in the air.
