Prison Break to come to an end?

Over the weekend, I was reading an article which mentioned that because of declining ratings, Prison Break may come to a conclusion at the end of this season (with the additional order of two episodes above the already scheduled 22).

Now, I've been rather disappointed with similar decisions in the past, but this time, I am sort of cool with this one.

Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy the series, and I don't think it has jumped the shark yet, but I have to admit that conceptually, it is starting to feel a little thin.

And given the current batch of story lines, it does feel like narratively the series can finally come to a satisfactory conclusion.

It just feels like the right time for the adventures of Michael Scofield and Lincoln Burrows and the rest of the Fox River 8 to end, so I for one will support the decision to end the show.

Of course, I am probably not the only one who thinks it is ironic that just last season, there was discussion about making a second Prison Break series based on a female prison. I have grave doubts that it will come to fruition now.
