Standoff stops production (but not for the reason you might think)

The new FOX hostage negotiation drama Standoff has stopped production for a week, but not because the show is being shelved. It's actually a "writer's break," so they can get caught up (since they start the new season before the other networks) and new consulting producer Tim Minear comes on board to help out.
So, those of you who had Standoff in our contest can stop jumping up and down now and go back to watching television.
