Prison Break Spinoff Change?
Oh my gosh, this totally made my day!!!
Ausiello spoke out on the fear of Prison Break being knocked off early. His response was “The ratings aren’t great, but Fox already ordered a full, 22-episode season and they have yet to amend that order.”
He then goes on to chat about a Prison Break spinoff. Seems that they aren’t pitching Prison Break: Cherry Hill anymore. Instead Ausiello says that “Based on what I’m hearing about the next few episodes, producers should bag the women in prison spinoff and pitch Fox Gretchen and T-Bag instead.“

HI Nikki,
it made my day too : 22 episodes !
also i have started to like gretchen at the end of seaon 3, and i think she’s great in S4 so far.
it’s a great idea tbag and gretchen, they can do great badass stories with these 2.

This is greta news. I know that even when a show is picked up for all 22 episodes it can be cancelled. So this is good news.
I personally thought the Cherry Hill spinoff was a joke, I dont think it would have lasted more then 2 episodes if it made it past the pilot.
I do think a Gretchen/T-Bag spinoff would be cool… although Michael does deserve a shot at kicking her ass first.

Woo! 22 Episodes, now that ismore like it!
& I like the idea of a Gretchen & T-bag spin-off, better than the womens prison one. I think it could be really interesting.

This is either him saying “Its going to be so good that they SHOULD pitch it” or that he has inside knowledge that they ARE going to pitch it.
Its either his opinion or fact. OOOH.

I dont know if I would like a spinoff. Yes t bag and gretchen are intresting, but could too bad guys carry a show? I like what they bring to prison break for sure, but I dont know how it would work with a spin off

Am sure it would work, come on….. 2 bad guys together are always more intersting then separate.
Oh and about 22 episodes… Does that mean Terminator goes? ;(((((((

nah.. i don’t think it’s a good idea to pair knepper and jlok.He’s way to good,and jlok is not that great.Sure t bag and gretchen will be interesting to watch,but only if someone else who can actually act plays gretchen.Sorry for jlok fans.I never think she’s that great.Anyway,22 episodes…yippee.PB and Fichtner rocks.

This is great news. I hope it happens. Anything to keep the present storyline & characters alive for more action.
P.S. - OMG! I just Googled “Rockmond Dunbar” and the first images that came up were disturbing. Looks like they were Season 1 promo pics from a deleted shower scene. J/k

How would the Gretchen/TBag spinoff go?
At the end of season 4, I could totally see both of them going to jail, so maybe thats what the spinoff will be about.

Maybe if they are cancelling that Cherry Hill idea then maybe Prison break will go on another season!!!! I dont think a t-bad/Gretchen spin off would go over that well… its would just be about murders and stuff… kind of depressing

What do you meaN a PB spinoff won’ happen?
There’s always one every season.
And how ridiculous would it be to just only give a Gretchen/T-bag spin-off?!

I think it would be a terrible move.
As someone said before, Tbag and Gretchen will be interesting within the context of Prison Break…
but on their own? I think people will be tired of it. I love TBag and Robert Knepper is a-maazzinng, FOX should let him go once PB ends to look for new projects.
[as much as i love them]

I personally love and embrace any idea of this show continuing, even if it is going to be without the brothers. T-Bag is a great character and personality, even though he’s somewhat psycho. Gretchen is a great presence on the show too, it’s crazy how they kept her around but not Whistler. Cherry Hill, the Gretchen and T-Bag show, Michael dancing in the snow with a place balanced on his nose, whatever, I DON’T CARE, just as long as they bring some ora of the show back I will be satisfied. I LOVE PB AND ALL THEIR CHARACTERS!!!

Great if we get all 22 episodes. I simply love Prison Break Season 4! As for the spinoff, I was never thrilled about Cherry Hill especially when it was the reason the writers wanted Sara dead in the first place. Change the spin off to Gretchen & Tbag? No thanks, I pass. They’re okay in small doses as advesaries…but a show based around them? 8-p

I never liked the Chery Hill idea and I think the Gretchen/T-Bag spinoff is not a good idea either…
