Question: Do you have any information regarding Prison Break's future? Is there any hope of getting all 22 episodes this season? -- Adry
Ausiello: Well, there is now. Not so much two weeks ago, when Fox told producer Twentieth Television that they only needed 16 episodes this season instead of the originally-agreed-upon 22. (Quick sidebar: Ironic that the network would make such a request this season when the show's actually good. Where were they last season when it sucked!) Anyway, Twentieth's response to Fox went something like this: "You asked for 22, you're getting 22!" So, to answer your question, Adry, yes, there will be 22 Prison Breaks this season.

大概意思是搞好了能看到完整的22集越狱的第四季，搞不好顶多16集。

I'm not getting too excited yet. Ausiello has been known to speak in half truths and even though they film all 22 episodes, it doesn't mean we'll see all 22 episodes. It's still gonna depend on the ratings. Fingers crossed though.... :D
意思是就算他拍了22集，可能也播不全。

另外周一的收视率显示，越狱第四季的收视依然萎靡，526万的收视还比不上脑残剧英雄的934万。


在FOX内部的收视排行中甚至落后于极有可能因为收视不佳而被砍的终结者：Sarah传奇。

看越狱是消磨时间不错的选择。
看英雄分明就是在浪费时间。

第四季其实不错。
跟一个美国朋友聊过，他说不是因为越狱差，而是美国人尤其是沾点基督教边的美国人大多不喜欢监狱类的题材。
