Yes! Something to look forward to! Time is too slow. I want it to be fall already.

I guess their big surprise is Sarah coming back, but it’s not really a surprise for us anymore. At least now Michael gets his love interest back, what with the self pitying and mourning last season.

Anyway, here’s the video of Prison Break season 4.

This is from E!Online:

The new season of Prison Break is back Aug. 25, and they’re introducing a new nerdy hacker character named Roland Glenn to join the boys for at least six episodes to help them fight the Company. He’s a talker, this one, and his big fat mouth is going to get him into trouble…Also, Sara’s back! I know you know. I’m just excited is all.

Yes, Sara Wayne Callies who plays Dr. Sara Tancredi on Prison Break is back. Fox is bringing her in as a regular on season 4. I don’t know how they are going to reattach her head though. Maybe she’ll be carrying it around with her through out the season.

Anyway, I’m curious on how they are going to go about this. I thought they fired her though. Hmmm…

PBelite.org reported that Prison Break season four is officially picked up by Fox.  Here is the quote:

FOX LOCKS UP “PRISON BREAK” FOR A FOURTH SEASON

FOX has picked up a fourth season of the hit drama PRISON BREAK, the action-packed series starring Dominic Purcell and Wentworth Miller as on-the-lam brothers Lincoln Burrows and Michael Scofield. After spending the first season filming on location in Chicago, followed by two seasons on location in Dallas, production on the upcoming fourth season of PRISON BREAK will move to Los Angeles.

Here is an article about Prison Break on Dallas News. Also a video from Dominic Purcell.

Fox’s Prison Break probably will move production from North Texas to Los Angeles for next season, officials confirmed Friday.

“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,” said Chris Alexander, a spokesperson for 20th Century Fox Television.

The show has not officially been picked up for its fourth season, but apparently writers rethought the storyline during the three-month Writers Guild of America strike. Prison Break’s crew was informed of the potential move this week, said Janis Burklund, head of the Dallas Film Commission. “We haven’t given up on it,” she said of the show. “I’ve been calling producers and asking what can we do, if anything, to keep this here.”

Prison Break came to Dallas after an initial season in Chicago. A total of 35 episodes were shot in North Texas – 22 in its second season and 13 this season prior to the strike – for almost $50 million, Ms. Burklund said, and a total economic impact to the area of $122.5 million. The average episode cost $1.4 million, was shot in eight days and employed 600 people, she added.

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.

Dallas casting agent Linda McAlister had placed 70 actors in speaking roles on the show and another 35 on NBC’s Austin-shot Friday Night Lights, which is facing an uncertain future itself, including as reported this week in Variety, a potential move to another network.

“We’re all bummed out,” Ms. McAlister said. “Major loss and especially if we don’t get Friday Night Lights back.”

“Shooting the past two seasons of Prison Break in Dallas has been a fantastic experience, and we are enormously grateful to this talented community of production people, actors and vendors,” Fox’s Mr. Alexander said.

Ms. Burklund credits show producer Garry Brown, who knew the area from his work on Walker, Texas Ranger, with steering the show to North Texas. “He was our biggest cheerleader to get Fox to even come take a look at us,” she said. “After they were out half a day (scouting locations), they said, ‘Yeah, this works.’ ”

Mr. Alexander and Ms. Burklund indicated Fox may look to Dallas for future shows. “We’ve got a good relationship with Fox,” Ms. Burklund said. “We’re in their thoughts already.”

So we all agree that the season finale of Prison Break was a little strange. Like it was going to be the last season. But this video here from Matt Mitovich of TV Guide tells us that there is definitely going to be a season 4. Although I’m not sure where they’re going with the story line because it is called Prison Break and neither Michael nor Linc are in prison. Anyway, watch this video.
