A&E will not continue with the action drama.
May 17, 2012
A&E has cancelled Breakout Kings after two seasons on the air. The news comes just two weeks after the show's second-season finale.
Breakout Kings, which followed U.S. Marshals working with convicted criminals to track down prison escapees, was originally passed over by the Fox Network back in 2010 and subsequently picked up by A&E after lengthy negotiations. The series ends after 23 episodes over two seasons.

Another strongly acted, exciting show cancelled. Did someone think we really need another lame reality show? It was the only thing A&E had going that was worth watching.

I just want to know the reason this awesome, fresh show was cancelled! Really? I loved the cast and whole new idea of "Breakout Kings". What a tragedy. Please dont do this!!

Please reconsider bringing the Breakout Kings back. The cast and story lines kept you watching---just to see what new wrinkle would happen to make a supposedly straight forward escape recovery go belly up!!! Of course, you knew if it was easy the Breakout Kings wouldn't be needed, but that was the fun in seeing each episode!!!!! The cast, each with their own particular baggage, made this series special. You wanted them to succeed, and finally be released from prison after services completed---down the road after more than 2 series seasons!!!!!
