'Prison Break' to be saved by 'Terminator' axe

    Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles has reportedly been blamed by Fox for adversely affecting Prison Break's dwindling US ratings.

    "Audiences just aren't responding to the show," a Fox source told website SyFy Portal about Sarah Connor, which is screened at 8pm on Monday nights as a lead-in to the jailbreak drama. "Our biggest surprise is the 18-to-49s [demographic] - those numbers are in the toilet."

    The insider added that Fox is likely to axe the Terminator spinoff during its current second season and attempt to salvage Prison Break in another timeslot.

    "All I can say is that production will likely stop, and I would think that Fox might try to air some of the episodes already in the can," the source stated. "But I don't know. They don't want to lose Prison Break, so there could be some schedule shuffling in the future."

    The Sarah Connor chronicles is good stuff, this is nonsense decision.

    PB has run its course, scrapping a program like TSCC which is building up excitment into S2 for PB which should have finished in S2 is a ridiculous thing to do.

    PB is all over the shop now and what the hell is going on.. It was amazing for the first few seasons and the 3rd season also was good, but now....its just time to finish it ASAP.
