" Prison Break&amp;#039;s executive producer Matt Olmstead has admitted that the show may be axed in the near future. In the wake of poor ratings for recent episodes, Olmstead told Entertainment Weekly: &amp;quot;There\u2019s a shelf life to serialized drama. If this is the last season, we\u2019re not mourning that because it\u2019s been a great ride and we have a great season [ahead].&amp;quot;  In the event of the series being cancelled midway through the current run, Olmstead stated that the writers will &amp;quot;definitely have enough time to prepare for an appropriate ending. The season finale we have in mind could play as a season or series finale.&amp;quot; However, he admitted that Prison Break&amp;#039;s producers have &amp;quot;absolutely been encouraged by the response&amp;quot; to the fourth season. &amp;quot;It took a while to get the right idea... and to have the audience supporting it is very gratifying.&amp;quot; &amp;amp;gt; Click here for our review of the latest Prison Break episode and air your views "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
