It seems that bosses over at Fox are contemplating some drastic moves to try and salvage flagging "Prison Break" from the scrap heap. With "The Sarah Connor Chronicles" acting as a lead in on the Monday night US timeslot for the prison escapee series I would have thought good audience figures, however, a Fox source told website SyFy Portal "audiences just aren't responding to the show" about the Terminator spin-off. "All I can say is that production will likely stop, and I would think that Fox might try to air some of the episodes already in the can," the source stated. "But I don't know. They don't want to lose Prison Break, so there could be some schedule shuffling in the future."
I'm slightly disappointed with this news. Prison Break started out with a fantastic first series, breaking the mould and creating a new genre but in subsequent series lacked the complex intelligent storylines that it began with, opting to go with more and more ludicrous stories. It was easy to go with these because they became part and parcel of the show, but in my opinion, Prison Break has had its run and The Sarah Connor Chronicles should be allowed to continue its run.
