This will be the last year of the show.” Reilly claims that the decision wasn’t mandated by ratings but rather by the show’s storyline. FOX president Kevin Reilly said, “ Prison Break had a hell of a run, but the run has ended. Today, FOX announced that Prison would be ending after four seasons. A spin-off had been in the works in 2007 but, with Prison’s declining numbers, those plans were put on hold. Prison was missing from the midseason schedule and the network said it wouldn’t return until at least Spring. Season three dropped further to 8.2 million and the current season has averaged just 6.1 million viewers.īased on the year four numbers to date, many have suspected that this season would be the drama’s last. The second season declined a bit with an average of 10.1 million viewers. Prison’s first season finished with an average audience of 12.1 million.
The FOX drama debuted on August 29, 2005 to solid ratings of over 10.5 million viewers and a healthy number of 18-49 viewers. The rest of the show’s large cast has also included Amaury Nolasco, Robert Knepper, Wade Williams, Sarah Wayne Callies, William Fichtner, Paul Adelstein, Marshall Allman, Rockmond Dunbar, Jodi Lyn O’Keefe, Robin Tunney, Stacy Keach, Leon Russom, Phillip Edward Van Lear, Peter Stormare, Muse Watson, and Patricia Wettig. Along the way, they realize they’re involved in a far-reaching conspiracy with dire consequences for all around them. To save his brother’s life, Michael concocts a detailed plan to have himself sent to prison and then to free both of them. Prison Break follows Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller), a young structural engineer whose brother (Dominic Purcell) has been framed and incarcerated for murder. Will there be a conclusion to this high-suspense series? It doesn’t come as a big surprise considering the ratings of late but FOX has announced that they’re cancelling Prison Break after four seasons.
