Prison Break Season 5 Press Release

prisonbreak

For a while about ten years ago, Prison Break was some of the best television ever.  The first two seasons anyway.  A while back it was said that Fox could bring the series back for a limited run.  Well, now they have confirmed that.  Below is the press release.

Although it doesn’t reveal much, or anything, I think it could probably work if they simply throw the brothers in jail and have them try to break out.  Why not?
