BURBANK, March 25: FOX has
renewed Prison Break for a
fourth season, ordering 22 episodes to premiere in the fall.

The show’s third season
was cut short to just 13 episodes as a result of the Hollywood writers’ strike.
Production on the new season will pick up in Los Angeles, after the first
season filmed on location in Chicago, followed by two seasons on location in
Dallas.

Averaging 8.2 million
viewers in its third season, the show tops its time period on Mondays for
adults 18 to 34 and ranks among the top 25 shows for adults 18 to 34.

Starring Dominic Purcell
and Wentworth Miller as brothers on the run, the series was created by Paul T. Scheuring. It is represented worldwide by Twentieth Century Fox Television
Distribution.
