Prison Break Marathon on Sunday

 

I’m not sure I could be more excited for the return of Prison Break on Monday, March 20th. If you missed any of the episodes earlier this year, you are in luck, FX will be running a Prison Break Marathon from 12pm to 7pm this coming Sunday. Believe me, watching this marathon is a great way to spend your Sunday. Wentworth Miller is a good cure as any for the hangover I know I be suffering through.

For those of you who live under a rock, and haven’t heard the premise of the show, it goes a little something like this.

MICHAEL SCOFIELD (Wentworth Miller) is a desperate man in a desperate situation – his brother, LINCOLN BURROWS (Dominic Purcell), has been convicted of a sensational murder and is on death row in Fox River State Penitentiary. Despite the evidence against Lincoln, Michael is convinced of his innocence. With no other options and the clock ticking toward Lincoln’s execution, Michael holds up a bank to get himself incarcerated alongside his brother. Once he’s inside, we learn that Michael – a structural engineer with the blueprints for the prison – has hatched an elaborate plan to break Lincoln out and prove that he was framed for the crime.

Combining the hope of “The Shawshank Redemption,” the camaraderie of “The Longest Yard” and the tense procedure and spectacle of “The Great Escape,” the series promises to reveal additional pieces of the puzzle each week as Michael carries out his daring plan to mastermind the ultimate prison break – and solve the far-reaching national-scale conspiracy that landed him and his brother there in the first place.

There’s a lot of buzz leading to the first new episode in months. If you are a die hard Prison Break fan, or a newbie, you’ll want to check this stuff out:
