Why do the FOX “event series” revivals for shows like ‘24’, ‘The X Files’, and ‘Prison Break’ end on cliffhangers with no promise of a continuation?

24’s revival was in 2014 and ended with Jack going to a Russian prison. Going into 2020 there’s still no promise to follow that up in any way.

The X Files did a revival season in 2016 and another in 2018. Like the 2016 season, the 2018 season ended in a cliffhanger. There’s no plans to pick it back up.

Prison Break did their revival in 2017. Same thing, ended with a bit of an open-ending and there’s no plans on a continuation.

What’s with this pattern?? Just finish a story!!
