No Hiatus for Prison Break?
No hiatus for Prison Break?
It seems like FOX is sure leaning that way. According to this article on Mediaweek, FOX is thinking about just running Prison Break’s 22 episodes straight through instead of taking it off the air until January.
Fox is leaning toward running 22 consecutive episodes first-run of Prison Break this season straight through, choosing not to pull the series at the end of the November sweeps as it did last season, before bringing it back in March, Preston Beckman, executive vp, strategic program planning at Fox said today at the International Radio & Television Society breakfast session.
I second that motion!
I think that it’s a great idea. I can understand the reasoning behind all the hiatuses going on. But, I think that Prison Break run all the way through would be great. That means I’ll have one of my favorite shows to watch over the long Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.
I guess we’ll see in the coming days or weeks if this is definite.

If that truly turns out to be true that’ll be the coolest thing FOX has done since signing the show.
