Bellick says Goodbye

Got my new TV Guide today & on page 12 is a little snippet for Prison Break! Of course you know I only get these things so I can see what's up with my favorite show! As much as I hate to type what I read, I'm gonna do it right now... just b/c I love ya'll!
He survived three seasons of torture, imprisonment and heat stroke, but Prison Break's Brad Bellick finally met his demise November 3. The corrupt guard-turned-escaped con, played by Wade Williams, sacrificed himself to save other members of his crew. "I thought it was nice to die in a heroic way," Williams tells TV Guide. "That was a cool thing. It's better than going down in a hail of bullets like everybody else." Williams knew his number would be up before the season started. "It's kind of like being on death row. You know your execution date, so it's hard not to go, 'Oh, I wish they'd hurry up and kill me so I can go on to the great blue yonder.'" Next, he plays a small-town cop battling alcoholism in the indie flick "Hatteras Hotel." "he's a good guy," Williams adds. "It's hard playing a bad guy all the time."

Bellick is gone...


This season of Prison Break has given me the opportunity to appreciate characters I never thought I would. I LOVE Gretchen this season. I mean right now, she's gonna' have to do something super venomous for me to feel about her like I did last season. The same goes for Bellick: I have been a Prison Break fan since it's inception to TV but I've never been a fan of Brad Bellick. He was that guy who you loved to hate, the one person (besides Mahone in S2) that you wanted the brothers to make a fool of and outrun! This season I laughed at his humor & even cheered for him a time or two. Tonight, I cried. Bellick truly touched me when he sacrificed himself, dying in one of the worst possible ways (drowning), for the mission, the group and for Lincoln and his son. For him to finally be unselfish, for him not to be thinking of himself, shows that he'd come a long way as a team player and in realizing there are more things in life (yes I said all that about a TV character - I love this show)... it meant a lot. For this action alone, I can say: Bradley Bellick, you will be truly missed! In honor of Bellick, I give you the "6 P's": "Prior planning prevents piss poor performance"!!!!!!!!!!!

BTW - Wyatt is dead, too! *jumping for joy* GO MAHONE!!!!!!!!!!
