Those monsters at FOX will make Prison Break fans wait until 2017 for the official revival, leaving next week’s Comic-Con 2016 panel a balmy oasis to the winter premiere. Take an early sneak peek at Michael Scofield’s return with a new photo, as well as details on the Odyssey-like return.

The very existence of FOX’s upcoming 24: Legacy serves as reminder that Jack Bauer’s time has passed, producers even having entertained the thought of killing off their beleaguered hero in 2014 revival Live Another Day. That said, it seems Kiefer Sutherland himself led the charge in killing off Jack, casting serious doubt the actor would ever agree to reprise the role.

FOX’s upfront announcements have come and gone, cementing that The X-Files won’t return for another round just yet, even if its revival season cliffhanger left off on a pretty urgent note. David Duchovny has his own opinions on what a new season would need, but Gillian Anderson says FOX hasn’t even so much as inquired about her availability.

There may be no ceiling when it comes to TV revivals decades after the fact, but Bud Bundy from Married With Children may have come up … well, short. Despite reports of David Faustino pitching a revival of the iconically crass 1987 sitcom, patriarch Ed O’Neill says it isn’t happening anymore.

For all the anticipation going into FOX’s X-Files revival, few would argue that the awkward balance of mythology and stand-alone episodes over six hours made it difficult to gain much traction. Time will tell if Chris Carter, Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny manage to coordinate for an eleventh season revival, though Duchovny at least believes the next round would need more than six episodes to do right.

FOX’s Prison Break revival may not arrive until spring 2017, but why wait for an extended look at Michael Scofield back in action? Yes, the first Prison Break revival trailer is here, breaking out of all the prisons fit to be broken out of. I just got the title!

Following its initial orders, FOX didn’t waste much time setting up a schedule for the 2016-17 season, including similar event series bows as 24: Live Another Day and The X-Files. This time around, 24: Legacy and Prison Break will get the big midseason debuts, while newer shows like Lethal Weapon will bow on Wednesdays.

To protect and serve, even our wildlife.

The Simpsons obliquely anticipating future events has become a common phenomenon, though never quite so regrettably as a 2000 episode that referenced “President Trump” in our future. Now, writer Dan Greaney looks back on the unfortunate premonition, noting the line was intended to envision an America that “went as bad as it possibly could.”

There’s no stopping the Prison Break revival train at this point, now that Sarah Wayne Callies has joined Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell. Now, Amaury Nolasco is ready for another break as well, returning Fernando to the fold.

FOX’s upcoming Prison Break revival continues to lock down (prison puns never fail to amuse, so I’ll spare you) its cast after series star Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell, and now another familiar face has checked in for roll call. Original series star and Walking Dead alum Sarah Wayne Callies has officially surrendered to reprise her role, but what “biggest escape ever” lies in store?
