If you’re anything like me, you’ve been wondering how FOX could possibly drag out Prison Break for another season.  Well, it looks as if we may now have our answer.

For information on a huge Season Four development, you can read more after the jump.

Remember how Michael’s love, Dr. Sara Tancredi, was offed a la Seven style this past season?  Well - drum roll please - it turns out that cabeza wasn’t hers.  In fact, Sara is still alive and still in one piece.

Yes - this not only means Michael will have a purpose for his life next year, this means actress Sarah Wayne Callies will be reprising her role.  (And for the record - the producers always planned for this possibility.  It seems Lincoln didn’t inspect that package quite close enough.)

Does this mean I will eventually return to the show I used to watch?  Probably not.  But I feel better knowing Scofield may work to stay out of prison this time around.
