Dominic Purcell and Wentworth Miller, Prison Break
Michael Scofield has been here before — almost. The first season of Fox's Prison Break (Mondays at 8 pm/ET, Fox) culminated in the tattooed hero's carefully planned escape from an American penitentiary, but this season, the stakes have been raised: Can Michael (played by Wentworth Miller) bust the mysterious Whistler out of Sona, the hellish Panamanian jail, along with a crew of backstabbing inmates — and rescue his nephew at the same time? And is delivering Whistler to The Company's diabolical agent Susan B. Anthony really going to save anyone?
"It is taking all my wherewithal to keep from spilling the beans," says Jodi Lyn O'Keefe, who plays Susan.
The season's 13th and (possibly) final episode, airing tonight, ratchets up the action in true Prison Break fashion — by toying mercilessly with its char

Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell, Prison Break
Even by Prison Break (Mondays, 8 pm/ET, Fox) standards, the plot twist that brought the fall mini-season to a close in November was a stunner. The seemingly saintly Whistler (Chris Vance), whom Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller) had been trying to free from jail since the start of the season, appeared to be in cahoots with mysterious villain Susan (Jodi Lyn O'Keefe).
The Whistler bombshell, coupled with the shortage of new programming due to the writers' strike, makes Prison Break's Jan. 14 return all the more enticing. A five-episode run (possibly more if the strike is resolved soon) will give audiences their escapist fix well into February sweeps.

Question: I have been a fan of Prison Break since it began. It was a show that had me on edge, especially last season. I think Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell play their characters well and I have had a love/hate relationship with some of the other characters as well. But after the tasteless act of having Lincoln find Sara's head in a box, I wonder where this show is really going. And what are these rumors about a possible Prison Break spin-off, with one of the new characters and set at a women's prison? I personally feel that Prison Break should have ended last season, with Michael and Lincoln being exonerated and Lincoln living happily ever after with his Doc. I know years ago shows would go on for five to 10 years, but nowadays, some shows just don't have the lifespan or storylines to carry into that timeframe. I think after this season, we should let go of this story and just let it be. It should have ended last year on top, but I feel like it's spiraling out of control. What ...

Dominic Purcell, Prison Break
It was the season many said would never happen. Could never happen. Whereas Season 1 of Fox's Prison Break chronicled brothers Michael and Lincoln's escape from Fox River and Season 2 detailed their run from the law, Season 3 for a while there seemed improbable. But then came last April's shocking season ender, in which Michael was again incarcerated — this time in a hellhole of a Panamanian lockup — and Lincoln, for a switch, was the one on the outside. On the occasion of the Season 2 DVD release and with the show's Sept. 17 return nearing, TVGuide.com grabbed a few minutes with Dominic Purcell to preview Linc's upcoming "spy" mission.
TVGuide.com: So, when we last tuned in, Lincoln was chasing Sara, right? Dominic Purcell: Yeah, he was chasing after Sara — and then

Dominic Purcell in Prison Break by Bill Matlock/Fox
Prison Break's third season, which for a time seemed almost improbable in terms of storyline, promises to be "the best season thus far," Dominic Purcell tells TVGuide.com. "And I don't say that lightly. I've seen some cut-together stuff, and it's really impressive. When you see it, you'll understand what I'm saying."Picking up immediately after the finale, Season 3 has Michael in that squalid Panamanian prison and big bro Lincoln on the outside in hot pursuit of Sara and her other, nefarious pursuer. "It's kind of been described as Lincoln in his own private little spy story," says Purcell, who might also finally enjoy a little on-screen somethin'-somethin' with one of the two female characters being introduced this season. "And it's about time," he notes. "Lincoln needs to get laid."Look for my full Q&A with Purcell — including the scoop on a plot-twisting betrayal — on Sept. 4, when Prison Break: Season 2 arrives on DVD.
