'Prison Break' Sent To Death Row By Fox

Kyle Buchanan — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 13:45:46 EST

Fox has canceled Prison Break, its "OK, we just broke out of the prison. Now what? Oh, what the hell, let's go back in" serial. Fox president Kevin Reilly's justification is hilariously blunt.

"The show is just played out," he said today at TCA. Thus, the network plans to shunt the show's final episodes to Friday nights in April, where it can extend one clammy, tattooed hand and attempt to take down the beleaguered Dollhouse with it. But, there is some good news: the same month will see Fox finally slot the animated comedy Sit Down, Shut Up from Arrested Development creator Mitchell Hurwitz. It will be airing at 8:30 on Sundays, immediately preceding Family Guy. Comedy whiplash!

'Prison Break' Star Prepares For Potential SAG Strike

While it was announced yesterday that AFTRA has reached a deal with the major studios, some SAG accredited actors like Prison Break star Wentworth Miller are preparing for another potential strike by going back to their roots. Specifically, Miller has returned to waiting tables at the Glendale area restaurant he worked at before getting his break. Miller said, "The manager was real cool about it and understands how the strikes affects all aspects of the economy. I'm also looking forward to go back to my roots as an actor." While he may be getting back to his roots, this time Miller plans on eating more than he did when he was a struggling actor. Miller said, "There will be not a strict Top Ramen diet this time around. Maybe some In-N-Out burgers, but definitely no Top Ramen."

Wentworth Miller Brings Back The Classic Gay Denial

Seth — Thu, 04 Jan 2007 17:49:32 EST

Prodded perhaps by the electric pink tazer zaps of an increasingly emboldened and networked queer gossip community, a trend has emerged in which noted aspiring-astronaut-boy-band-members and male TV personalities have reluctantly emerged from their anal-retentively organized closets. Not Wentworth Miller, however, who in a recent interview with the Australian AP made it clear that there will be no People magazine covers featuring the Prison Break star under bold yellow letters announcing his enthusiastic appreciation of sex with hot men:

"No, I'm not gay," he said.
"I know these rumours are out there ... I'm cool with the fact that they exist, I mean this is about fantasy.

"Certain people are going to have certain fantasies, if someone wants to imagine me with a woman, or a man or one of each that's cool with me as long as you keep watching the show."

We hope the corner office occupants at Fox TV appreciate what they have in Wentworth, whose devotion to drawing viewers to their serialized story of escaped inmates is so great, he's willingly turned his sexuality into a blank canvas upon which one can tattoo his or her own set of personalized, lusty blueprints.
