Do you know what Fox is ...
Question: Do you know what Fox is planning on doing with
Prison Break and
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles come January? Seems like
Prison Break always takes a hiatus around Thanksgiving and comes back in January. Are they planning on doing this again this year? Are both
PB and
T:SCC confirmed to be full seasons?
Answer: My understanding is that
Terminator got a 13-episode pickup, while
Prison Break (a more established series) was renewed for a full 22-episode season. I know I was erring toward optimism the last time I was asked about this, but with the numbers continuing to drop as the competition continues to build on Mondays, I think there's cause to be concerned where both shows are concerned. Can't say yet where either of these shows will land in the new year, because the initial Fox schedule announced in May didn't include either of them in the winter plans (which, this being Fox, are always subject to change). The initial Monday lineup announced for January included
Dollhouse at 8/7c, followed by
24, with no mention of the scheduling of a back-half of a season for either of the current occupants. You should assume
24 is a given for Mondays, but beyond that, who knows.
