It seems that FOX might be blaming the recent drop Prison Break ratings on the Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. And due to that, they may actually pull the plug on Terminator.
According to SyFy Portal, “The network has been disappointed by “Sarah Connor’s” numbers so far this season, and some executives feel that the show is dragging down numbers for “Prison Break,” which airs as a lead-out.”
A source for the site says that production will likely stop on the Terminator series and they might even toss out some existing episodes. “They don’t want to lose ‘Prison Break,’ so there could be some schedule shuffling in the future.”
What do you think?

T:SCC S1 was quite good … But after seeing those 4 eps of S2 I wonder what they are aiming at … That’s a bit the problem with those shows :/
But it’s a great thing they don’t play PB! :D

BRING BACK 24!!!! IT’S BEEN WAY TOO LONG, 24 AND PRISON BREAK WERE TIGHT TOGETHER!!!
It almost goes without saying, people who watched 24 got hooked on prison break, that sealed a solid 2-hour spot on monday night primetime. (used to) Now that I think about it, Prison Break’s ratings have been going down ever since 24 has been off. But now, they’re bringing a 2-hour special in NOV that will set up Season 7!!! I’M SOO F’N PSYCHED!!! As for Terminator, I just don’t know where they plan on going with it, it needs to go and 24 needs to be on to create the perfect Monday night. Granted, 24 is no Prison Break, we have to admit that the two shows went together like PB and J. (guess which one is which, lol) They’re like the perfect tandem. ALL HAIL 24 AND LONG LIVE PRISON BREAK!!

ITS NOT TRUE MISA FANS DIDNT WATCH S3. IN FACT, MOST OF US DID. THAT WHY WE CALL OURSELVES LOYAL FANS IN SPITE AND DESPITE OF. BLAME IT ON THOSE ANTI-MISA FANS WHO SWORE THAT THEY WOULDNT WATCH PB BECAUSE SARA CAME BACK. NOT THE MISA FANS.

that’s so true g.i like misa but it didn’t stop me from watching season 3 when sarah left.I mean as much as i like misa,i’m a bigger fans of prison break.And to be perfectly honest,they haven’t really spoiled misa fans this season so far.Their scenes together not that much.And i think if people really like prison break,they’ll watch it no matter what.Perhaps some people got bored of it,found other series that they like better.

I think a loyal fan should watch all the seasons, wether they like misa or not, and I don’t. I still think the brothers are more important than misa, because I think SWC is a terrible actress, compared to Wentworth. She and Dominic are both bad! I like Michael and T-Bag.

PB is the best TV Show ever!
So people if u really want the show to continue,plzzzzz stop downloading it..Thats y the ratings have dropped..
Really hope that it wont b cancelled!
It will b really a loss for loyal fans like me.
ANyway tv shows like smallville n charmed had lower ratings than 5.23 n the shows went up to 8 seasons!so i dont understand y they r considering that for PB..or is it a rumor only??

Isn’t fox a free channel in the USA, over a million pay 20 pound plus(37 dollors) per month for SKY1 on satellite over here in England and for a country the size of us, it’s quite a high percentage, especially whilst it isn’t on terrestrial, and even cable cannot show it due to a long running dispute with satellite, so bearing all this in mind, the show has done remarkably well, however i understand if nobody in the US watches it, or non-least over 8 million, possibility is that the plug will be pulled, and the show will decline, afterall even though subscribers in the UK, and other countries pay to watch the show whereas the yanks don’t, it still isn’t feasible for a company as big as fox to continue with a low rating loser, on prime time Mondays, sad for the rest of the world i know, but thats such as life as we know, America conquors!

Anyone in the US with satellite would have to pay to get any EuroChannels too.. But it seems that Hollywood comes up with the best shows in the world. Gotta give it to them. I only understand that someone download PB if they can’t watch it on TV (they work or something). But for someone who just sits on their computer and downloads shows just because, well that’s a shame, they should stop. FOX is a big network and therefore requires it’s primetime lineup to have more than 7 or 8 million viewers to even consider staying on the air. 24 had solid viewer ratings every year since S3 (which was kinda lame) and is one of FOX’s biggest cash-cows. As is PB. The problem with prison break is that they must create something out of nothing all the time to keep the viewers interested. The problem with that is the fans still love it, but it pushes others potential-viewers away like the show is some proposterous idea. I think that FOX respects the show enough to let it go out with a bang, high-ratings or not. They will let PB leave in style after season 4. Then we will all buy the dvd’s (which fox gets a % of) and live happily ever after. FOX banks hard money off of the DVD sales, so buy-up.

The FOX networks will go out on a limb for there shows, it’s been proven with X-files, 24, and Prison Break.

I love PB…and I’m glad to hear that FOX is going to air the 22 episodes. I agree that it should be 24 and PB on Monday nights. This season is by far much better than season 3 and I don’t understand why the ratings have been so low. I think the downloads have contributed to poor ratings. I read somewhere that it is the number 1 downloaded show.This season has been awesome thus far and I hope that they will allow the show to end properly. I love you Went!

You all know prison break should’ve finished at the end of season 2, but the writers were cowards and changed the last 15 minutes to preserve a cash cow rather than ending a show on a high not when the story was really over.
Prison Break = sell out.
