Prison Break Returned To Netflix After 7 Years, Sign For A New Season is Coming?
--
Prison Break Season 6
Prison Break finally returned to Netflix this week, the first time it's returned to the streamer in seven years. It's great news for fans of the show as it gives them one more way to watch the well-loved series, which can also still be watched on Hulu and Disney+ for free, and other streaming platforms for a price.
Despite it being available on those platforms, Netflix is undoubtedly still the biggest streamer out there, and reruns of classic shows have been some of its biggest hitters of the past few years, with viewers jumping at the opportunity to binge series they've either never seen or haven't watched in a long time.
That said, there is one catch with Prison Break returning to Netflix: it will only be available for the next 18 months, and only in the U.S. This shouldn't be a surprise, nor is it uncommon; shows are leased to Netflix for varying periods of time rather than being on the platform permanently.

Prison Break coming back to Netflix has been half a year in the making. Back in December 2023, Netflix struck a deal with Disney to license over a dozen shows from Disney proper and its various subsidiaries. In the case of Prison Break, it was licensed from 20th Century Fox, now 20th Century.Why Prison Break Is Worth Watching
For those who haven't ever seen Prison Break, now's the time to do it as it's well worth a watch. For starters, it didn't overstay its welcome. Four seasons, the movie, and the fifth season revival mostly ensured that the show never got stale or jumped the shark, going out on a high note. Thanks to keeping the show's arc relatively trim, Prison Break's momentum never waned.
While all shows have peaks and valleys in the storytelling, the writing of Prison Break remained consistently strong and woth to watch. Hope it helps!
