Prison Break Returns to Netflix!

But the News Isn't All Good

Disappointing News for Devoted Fans

After seven long years, the highly anticipated return of the beloved series “Prison Break” to Netflix has been met with a disappointing announcement: the show will only be available for streaming for a limited time of 18 months.

As part of Netflix's ongoing deal with Disney, “Prison Break” will be returning to the streaming giant close to seven years after it left the US platform in 2017. Fans had eagerly awaited the show's comeback, but the news of its restricted availability has left a sour note.

The original “Prison Break” series, which premiered in 2005, followed the story of Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell), a falsely convicted man, and his brother Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller), a brilliant structural engineer who devises an elaborate plan to break Lincoln out of prison. The show gained a loyal fan base over its five seasons and has continued to captivate viewers through reruns and streaming platforms.

The upcoming season of “Prison Break” will reportedly feature the return of many fan-favorite characters, including Sara Tancredi (Sarah Wayne Callies), Alexander Mahone (William Fichtner), and T-Bag (Robert Knepper). However, the limited streaming availability means that fans will have to make the most of the show's return while they can.
