New Breakout Drama By Matt Olmstead & Nick Santora
January 23, 2010 by Nikki Katz
Fox has reportedly picked up the pilot for a new television show called ‘Breakout Kings‘.
The drama comes from Prison Break producers Matt Olmstead and Nick Santora and centers on a team of ex-convicts and marshals working together to apprehend criminals who break out from prison.
Say what?!?! This sounds strikingly like a Prison Break Season 5 plotline! Too bad it couldn’t be our same cast.

September 5, 2008 by Nikki Katz
Nick Santora answered some questions from a German Prison Break fan site on PBreakFans …
Are You Disappointed in the Season Premiere Ratings?
Nick: You always want more people to watch your show, but it was the Labor Day holiday and millions of Americans were still traveling back to their homes when the show was on. Also, the Republican Convention was on and that drew a huge audience. Television viewing was low across the board that night, but we were still the number 1 show of the night.
Why is There no Intro to Season 4?
