- A participant would not support a ten-episode remake.
- A longer version could isolate stories about Tommy, the stuttering prisoner, Hadley, and other prisoners.
- Moving the escape to the 1967 Red Sox season is considered and rejected because the prisoners have little outside information.
- A later sequel pitch imagines Andy and Red laundering cartel money in Mexico with Freeman and Robbins returning.
- A Randall Stevens episode could show Andy's post-escape banking and border crossing.
