At the beginning of the previews, they said that in 2 weeks the new episode is going to be 2 hours long. I guess it makes up for not being on next week.

Two hours is great, but I hate break weeks.

4 episodes, break, 1 episode, break,...13 total episodes, 4 month break..

So annoying.

I agree, I really don't like that format either.

I can understand these week breaks for MLB playoff, due to the ratings being low. However the four month break is going to kill ratings even more.

The ratings are already down to 7million, and if they go lower FOX will probably axe the show. The four month break is not going to help the ratings, it will hurt them. Average Americans have too short of attention spans to keep interested for four months of downtime.

If FOX cancels Prison Break, or makes them end it prematurely, I will never watch another FOX program for the rest of my life. That includes Sunday Football and 24.

I hope that they don't cancel this show, that would be a shame. Their doing almost like what they did the first season, showed the first half of the season during the summer months. Then they brought the show back that next Spring. It's like what they did with LOST this past season.

Yeah, but it's a dumb strategy when you are losing viewers every week. The longer the hiatus, the more people that lose interest in the show.

How people are starting to lose interest in this show is startling. This is one of the best shows I have ever seen, and definitely my favorite of all time.

I agree, that is a very dumb move on their part and I see where you are coming from.

I can't wait next month for Season 1 to release on BluRay since I already don't have it on DVD. Depending on the price, I might pick it up.

I already have it on regular DVD. If it ever comes out on HD-DVD, I'd think about picking it up again. That is how much I love this show.

Prison Break probably won't be on much longer so I don't think it'll matter if ratings start to dip.

Has FOX ever actually pulled the plug prematurely on a show like Prison Break? A show that's been around for two full seasons, has a strong fan base, and needs an ending to close out it's previous episodes? I don't think a show like that, outside of 24, has existed on FOX.

As dumb as the network is I don't think they'll cancel Prison Break in the middle of it's run. They'll be stupid to not at least let it finish a season and offer some closure.

FOX is a bunch of idiots, there are plenty of shows that they have pulled the plug on either mid way through or almost to the end with 3-4 episodes not allowing any closure. They baffle me big time with some of the decisions that they make.

Yea I agree I hate getting hooked on a TV show and then ABC, FOX, CBS, or NBC pulling the plug on it. I sometimes think I would be better off not watching a series until its 3-4 years into it and then just buying the season box sets.

Anyways, good episode and I want to know whats in the cooler.

Yeah, I agree. FOX is the worst with screwing things up on their tv shows.

I have done that a lot where I have just waited on TV shows and then jumped on later by buying the dvd sets and getting caught up.

This show reminds me of Gilligans Island. I mean they have to be in a jail or running or its not prison break, just like in Gilligans Island they could never get off the island or it wouldnt be called Gilligans Island.

My point is how are they going to run this say 3 more seasons? A different jail each year?

I bet by next season they will probably be on the run again.

How long did Gilligan's Island last, seasons?
