We’re now getting the latest scoop from the Fox TCA – and it seems that a Prison Break Spin-Off is definitely in the works!!
Matt Olmstead says that he and coexec producer Zack Estrin are right in the middle of rewriting the Prison Break spinoff. “We are finishing the script,” Olmstead told Kristin. “Then we’ll cast it, and then we’ll hopefully shoot it and get it on the air.”
The strike upset the original plan to introduce Molly and they couldn’t get their dream picks to move to Dallas, so Olmstead said the move to Los Angeles will help with the casting.
Estrin added, “The new show will be more like CSI Miami is to CSI and less a spinoff, because it will be a new character altogether.”
And the notion of someone breaking out of prison may be an element, but it is not going to be the focus of the show.
“It’s not an escape format, at least in the beginning,” Estrin says. “It’s like an undercover format. Someone who was being used inside for information to find things out and if anyone finds out what she’s doing, it’s a big, big problem. So it’s more of like a Departed format. We don’t want to do the same thing with breasts. There would be a different vibe and a different drive to the show. More like, ‘You don’t know who to trust.’”
Thoughts?

Hi Voula, well done on passing another exam!! keep ya chin up on the other 2, you might have passed! I have faith in you!! ;0) Bet its well hot in Greece!! Been rather warm here, not much sun tho, needs a good season of over-night rain to clear the air! Listen to me, English are never happy about the weather!! LOL!
@Sona44, i know they are funny aren’t they, some people are just crazy!! & they get rather bitchy too, absolute madness!! lol! I don’t think i’m gonna watch the spin-off either, i love PB, & i don’t think the writers are stupid enough to try & rip off PB, its just reading what i have, seems a little lame. I think there’s enough CSI type programmes out there already, i want something new. Like Reaper! I love that programme!! kevin Smith is such a good writer!
@T, V, E and M,
I’m fine thank you :)
Ok I’ll read the posts.
Oh sorry MiSa, I misunderstood you earlier :p
I love jeans!
Hi T!
Yeah I love reading those comments at JJ!
It’s definitely untrue though since Went did not go to China!
He shot those commercials and photoshoots in Los Angeles :s
Oh V, you love ice cream don’t you XD
How warm is it in Greece hun?
Rest well and unwind with anything and everything PB ok LOL!!!
Hmm, Enroc..
It’s been a while ya!
When I say I’m not watching it, I definitely won’t :)
I have never watched a single episode of Grey’s Anatomy or Bones since I’m not into them.
ok.. whats a spinoff? =O
sorry i have no idea what this post is about. is it another show related to prison break or something to do with prison break but not included in the fourth season?
*confused*
:(
LOL Enroc … I’m not going to watch ! Or maybe like you, the first episode. If PB continues, I will watch, but if Pb ends, I will fall in depression LOL and not going to watch anything
HI Voula !! Congratulations for your exams !!! I think I’m going to download the game too when I’ll come back to France. It looks great :)
Yeah Voula, we don’t want a TV show like PB ! All we want IS PB ! Nothing more, nothing less.
Have a rest !
Heya Sona44, Voula, MiSa, Sierra, Mahmuda and whoever I forgot..
How are you? Im a little tired every day after work so I just can’t post the much I did before.
Going to watch this ‘Spin-Off’!
I am definitely going to watch at least the first episode to see what the writers make of it. And although you guys are now saying that you are not going to watch, I know that you are going to, because it is from the same genius writers as from the original Prison Break.
And the original Prison Break can’t stay forever, I think it’s good to have this spinoff.
I just hope that they don’t rush the script like PB s03 and do it like in s01.
My 2 cents :)
- Enroc
NOT GOING TO WATCH!!!!!
What are the writers thinking??
Come on guys if you want to do something just give us more PB, not something like PB! Give us a 5th season!!
Hello guys! I wrote a comment at the killing box too!
Heeey Sona44!!! :))
I went shopping and I just came home!

Hows your day going? 0oo there’s one comment on JJ about went being with someone, i commented on there earlier, i think i’m down as Tab, was not happy with 1 comment from a girl on there, so i had to say something, you should take a look! Some peoples comments are well funny!!

No, I mean I met them one month every year or every two years :s
1 euro = 1,5 dollar !! And I bought a Levi’s jean yesterday at 40 dollars, the same in France around 90 AHAHAHA XD …
“Not going to watch” is not quoted above so what are you guys blabbering on about?!
I’m glad, a Prison Break spin-off is happening. But it all seems slightly rushed. It doesn’t air until 1st september. But oh well, these things take time.
The fact that Estrin mentioned it’s a whole nother dimension making the show a little like CSI:Miami is totally uncalled for. They should continue it as Prison Break like usual. DUH!
Hiii Sona44 !! I posted a comment on the interview. Thanks, i really have fun ! I’m gonna go to Just Jared right now to see the pics :)
“Not going to watch” !!!
Why do they make a spin-off ?? Cause Prison Break is successful ?? SO KEEP WRITING PB ! CONTINUE DOING PB !
‘not going to watch’
It’s stupid really.
They should just concentrate on Prison Break.
“not going to watch”!!!
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.
They should concentrate on improving the ratings.
And the storyline.
@Tabitha, Mahmuda, Enroc, MiSa, Sierra and Voula dearest,
Hey how are you guys holding up?
How’s Tuesday?
Mine’s pretty hectic.
Busy running errands.
Watched “Private Practice” on TV.
I’m going through Went’s new pictures on Just Jared and Spoiler TV.
Heey V!
How’s the PB game going so far?
Any luck?
MiSa and Mahmuda,
Have fun in the U.S.!
T, well howz it goin’ ya :)
How’s family and household chores :)
Wait, isn’t CSI:Miami a spin-off from CSI:Crime Scene Investigation?
Horatio and his team did appear in one of the episodes.
And Mac Taylor and his team appeared in CSI:Miami.
They are still under the CSI franchise.
Except that CSI:NY was not a direct spin-off from CSI:Crime Scene Investigation.
If they’re not spin-offs, what are they?
Sorry, I’m in a daze right now.
The point of the matter is,
“not going to watch”.
Not going to watch. Totally agree with Matt.
Seriously, who *is* going to watch this?
