Sarah Wayne Callies: Back from the Dead!

Sarah Wayne Callies: Back from the Dead!

In one crazy unexpected twist, Sarah Wayne Callies is coming back to Prison Break next season!!!

Yes, even after her character, Dr. Sara Tancredi was unexpectedly beheaded last season. Apparently she had a contract dispute with 20th Century last year but that’s all been resolved.

In the fourth episode of season three (”Good Fences”), Sara’s head was presumably decapitated, placed in a box, and sent to Lincoln Burrows. So how can she be written back into the series?

Prison Break executive producer Matt Olmstead tells TV Guide,”Lincoln glanced at the head in the box for a split second. That could’ve been anyone. He wasn’t about to pull it up from the hair and inspect it closely.”

Olmstead also admitted that the fans affected the decision to bring back Sarah. “…once we started talking about it, it was mentioned again that fans are still wondering about her. And when people who are fans of the show — and of Sarah — are asking, “Is she really dead?”, what they’re saying, essentially, is, “I hope she’s not dead.”

WHAT DO YOU THINK of bringing SWC back to life??

Oh wait that’s right! Those women don’t get the chance to liplock with Wentworth Miller!

Like woah! Grow up some of you.

Sara Tancredi is just not written to be the love interest. She has more to offer and she can kiss some @ss!!!

i want drama but i’m also glad to see sarah wc coming back i hope writers will make a good job and that the plot will be good…maybe we’ll see michael’s darkness at first and also sarah’s revenge (it’s exating) and finally an happy end of MISA…

Bad Sara is gonna be so hot!

YES! Sara and Michael are back!!!

OMG! I AM SO HAPPY =D=D=D

It’s a drama,too romance will ruin the show…hence it’s already ruined!!!
very talented who???…in these months she’s never had a job….why?not because of the baby…(actresses restart to work after 1 or 2 months giving birth)…no excuses!!
SO STUPID MOVE!!!!
…and no.I don’t like her at all….

I am so excited for season 4 you guys! The reunion would be so angsty!

Sarah returning to the show is a totally positive development, for me.

The writers should be given a chance to get the story back on the track it started out with.

The brotherly love aspect can still play a part, as can revenge, blood, and all the gore some people seem to relish so much.

Dr. Sara in the show rounds it out and balances it. SWC is a talented actress, smart, beautiful, and she will KICK ASS!!!!!

DB Cooper @ 03/30/2008 at 3:47 am

When do they start filming? And where? Do any of you know? Oh garsh I can’t wait for the promo pics!!!

i’m so glad she’s coming back!!!

YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!

A new low for FOX!

SunnySideUp @ 03/30/2008 at 9:56 pm

I think Fox made a desperate move…
Very desperate on their part

This si the stupidest idea since Pam had that dream on “Dallas”! I have lost all respect for this show and it’s writers. They have lost me as a viewer once and for all.

I love Prison Break and with Sarah Wayne Callies coming back? Its just ten times more better for me!!!

THANK YOU FOX! THANK YOU SWC!!! THANK YOU!

Do you rememberthe TV show, “Dallas”? Specifically, do you remember how, after becoming a television phenomena, a ratings block buster and a show that had an entire nation, if not an entire planet, asking the question, “WHO SHOT JR?”, it declined into nothing but a laughing stock, a bad joke, and a show that EVERYONE made fun of and nobody watched anymore when they decided to “bring Bobby (one of the main characters they had KILLED OFF)back” by making the entire season where he was dead a DREAM????!!

Now,do you remember what a BAD idea that was? Do you recall how the vast majority of viewers, even ones who loved the character of Bobby and missed him, stopped watching because the ‘dream’ plot was just, well…too ridiculous for words?

Well, Prison Break is now the new Dallas!

What the hell is wrong with Matt Olmsted! Does HE not remember what a BAD idea that was for Dallas and how it basically DESTROYED the show? Does he not see that is about to do the same **** to “PRION BREAK”?!

Its so obvious that they wanted to kill her off, and do it in a shocking way that left no room for negotiation–fair enough But then, at least have the BALLS to stick to your guns when the going gets tough. Now they try to say that they always thought that they might bring Sara back at some point–I call BULLSHIT! If they had any idea of bringing Sara back, they wouldn’t have made her end in such a graphic and detailed way. I mean, Lincoln saw her head! LJ heard her die! Were they both delusional? If you want to ‘leave the door open’ for a character’s return then you kill them off in a less conspicious way…ie–Kellerman. You don’t chop their head off and show it to us and THEN expect us to buy some lame ass excuse as to ‘why it wasn’t really her head’…COME ON!

Maybe SWC wanted back in when her movie career tanked after “Whisper” went straight to DVD and she needs some cash. But I swear if I was one of the writers and they told me to write this ****, I’d quit. I know PB isn’t exactly Shakespeare, but it had an edge and one of the edges was that you never knew when/if a major character would die. The stakes were high…now that has been completely ruined because we now know that if a character is killed off and ratings go down as a result, they will just find a way to bring that character back, so the tension and dramatic edge to the show has been completely destroyed.

And Wentworth Miller? He’s ALL over Europe last week telling fans that Sara is “defineately dead”….. I mean he’s running around saying how Michael’s happy ending went out the window with Sara’s death and now he’s going to go all dark and vengeful…”That’s where season four lives and breathes for me now.”

Where does season four live and breathe with you now, Mr. Miller??Does he or his agent even know what an ******* he looks like now? Like he either lied in every single interview last week to his fans or he’s so out of the loop creatively that they didn’t even bother to consult him before bringing SWC back!

1.)If he was lying, then I think that is VERY disrespectful to his fans. If he was asked about Sara, he could have said something politely like, “I don’t really want to talk about her” or whatever. he didn’t have to lie and say she was most certainly dead!

2.)And if he wasn’t lying and the producers kept him in the dark about bringing Sara back, then I think that shows a total lack of respect for their main leading actor, and if I was WM I’d be PISSED: “You make me go to Europe and Israel and say one thing when you know that a week later you are going to make me look like an ass for saying it? Yeah, thanks guys! Great working relationship we have–real professional respect!”

You know what, they may get a few old Sara-loving viewers back with this move, but they have JUMPED THE SHARK and will lose many more viewers as a result. Fans don’t like being treated like they are stupid.

THE TOP TEN LAME REASONS THE WRITERS WILL GIVE FOR BRINGING SARA BACK:

(Must be read outloud in a snarky David Letterman-type tone):

10.)”Night of The Living Dead” was always Michael Scofield’s favourite movie.

9.) “Hi, Dr. Frankenstein? My name’s Michael Scofield… hear you’ve had some great success with dead people?”

8.)Michael runs into the boys from “Supernatural” and they tell him all about the Crossroads Demon. When Dean and Michael die in a year’s time, Sara lives happily ever after with Sam as yuppy doctor-lawyer couple with a Volvo.

7.)Dr. Jack Shepard is really the head of the evil company. He gets back to his Island, with the help of Whistler’s coordinates after leaving it as one of the Oceanic 6. Michael follows them there and learns that no one really dies if they are on the island He brings Sara’s body there and she comes back to life, but has no head. Michael kills Sun, cuts her head off, pops it on Sara’s body and exclaims, “I always had a thing for Asian Chicks.”

6.)Season 3 was a dream… Sara’s just in the shower and she’s fine, thanks.

5.)The people from New Line Cinema called. They wanted their ending for “Se7en” back or they were gonna sue Santora’s ass!

4.)There was no head in the box. It was a puppy. Lincoln was just having an LSD flashback.

3.)They sewed Saras head back on to Luke McFarlane’s body–everybody’s happy!

2.)Michael moves to Sleepy Hollow where Sara learns to ride a horse

And the number one lame ass excuse the writers will give for bringing Sara back:

1.) Lincoln will explain in the season premiere: “What? You thought I said, ‘She’s dead, Michael”? NO! I said, ‘Does she give good head Michael?’!!!”

janetjones1 @ 03/31/2008 at 4:40 am

No, Matt Olmsted, you stupid ass! I DON’T think Lincoln would tell Michael she was dead unless he was pretty damn sure, since he knew what it would do to Michael if he thought Sara was dead.

He looked at the head for at least ten seconds–long enough to make a positive ID and then gasped, “Sara…” It was DEFINEATELY her head! Why don’t you try watching your show once in a while before you go assuming that your lame ass answers will satisfy fans?

And if she was still alive and on the run, why didn’t she track down Michael and Lincoln? Where the hell has she been? And what about LJ who was in the room when she died and told his father that he heard her die?Your answers are so transparent, they make me sick. Show some respect for your fans and at least ADMIT you only brought her back to please the fans who never wanted her killed in the first place!

OMG………….. I’m so happy that she will back again

I guess we’ll just wait and find out! I can’t wait for season 4 to start :D

im so happy that they are bringing her back and im so glad that she is coming back and it worked out so much better this way and i know we had a little bit of a dry patch in s3 because it did go a small bit just a smidge down hill without sara and now that they have faked her death its more than likely that she wont be killed for a good while now and she was picked up for the whole 22 episodes of season 4 so i think we’ll see her right untill de end of pb hopefully
