Prison Break’s executive producer Matt Olmstead has admitted that the show may be axed in the near future. With the poor ratings Olmstead told Entertainment Weekly that there’s a shelf life to serialized drama. “If this is the last season, we’re not mourning that because it’s been a great ride and we have a great season [ahead].” IF the series is cancelled midway through this season, Olmstead says that they will have enough time to prepare an appropriate ending. “The season finale we have in mind could play as a season or series finale.” That being said, Olmstead says that the show’s producers have “absolutely been encouraged by the response” to the fourth season. “It took a while to get the right idea… and to have the audience supporting it is very gratifying.”

【小編短評】 金城武在《重慶森林》里說的真沒錯：“不知道從什么時候開始，在什么東西上面都有個日期，秋刀魚會過期，肉罐頭會過期，連保鮮紙都會過期，我開始懷疑，在這個世界上，還有什么東西是不會過期的？ ”不過真要給《越獄》加上一個期限的話，咱總不能說是一萬年吧？！
