At the end of the day, shows likePrison BreakorX-Files, they do have a legacy.

“Purcell:It has the same spiritual tone as the first season ofPrison Break.

There’s no real separation of inmates.

Yeah, we’re just going to do that in nine hours of television.”

We don’t have those episodes.

I would love to do season 6.Miller:I wouldn’t rule it out.

I feel like there’s more story there.Purcell:I’d do years ofPrison Break.

I love the show so much.Callies:I am grateful to be here.

I never thought we would be here.

If this is all it is, this is enough.

At this stage, it’s a closed-ended story for me.

Is there a happy ending this time around?

Happy as far asPrison Breakwould define happy ending [Laughs].
