It was odd though that T-Bag was hardly in the episode except for the end. His special brand of derangement was missed.


Yeah, he seemed so out of place at the end, didn't he? He didn't say anything. I miss his insanity. :cry:


It's really a love/hate relationship with T-Bag. One does not like him but nonetheless notices when he's absent.

He was probably out strolling looking for a fresh newbie to hold on to his pocket. Luckily he didnt find Mr X who would be a suitable candidate to hold T-Bags pocket

Robert Knepper (T-Bag) does a wonderful job though being slimy, annoying, and creepy.

Most definitely. I wonder if this show will see any Emmy recogntion? Might be a little too much for Emmy voters. It can be compared to "24" to some extent, but I really don't know. I wish Peter Stormare (Abruzzi) would get a nomination in a supporting category.

The supporting cast is great. But the Emmys, if they want to recognize the show, might nominate Patricia Wettig (the vice-president) seeing as how they like to nominate the same people.

Though Patricia Wettig is very effective in her role.

I think that Wentworth Miller should get serious consideration in the "Lead" category, as should Stormare. They're both fantastic. The writing is also deserving of recognition because of the way they continually come up with new avenues of exploration in what would seem like a fairly confined (and thus likely more difficult to write) series.

:wub: Joe :wub:

Great editing and suspense when Abruzzi is supposedly going to do some harm to Michael after learning that Falzone is arrested. :smile: The two have great interaction. Loved that twist.

That was a brilliant twist indeed. That's why the show is so good. It keeps one guessing at all times, circumventing expectations when it's least expected. It would be an almost impossible choice to decide which Fox show is better: House or Prison Break because they're both amazingly wonderful. :smile: :wub:

Not to dismiss anything that Wentworth has done but to me it seems like Dominic Purcell brings a better performance than Wentworth. They probably wrote Scofield's character about him being very calm but Lincoln seems to convey alot more emotions with his character and has more depth to him. Dominic would probably get a better contendership over recognition than Wentworth although both actors seem to put up very strong performances. I like T-Bag's character and over the top-nish and hopefully he would get in as a supporting actor acknowledgment

They need to give more screentime to the cute doctor too

Wentworth Miller really carried this show for a good 6 or 7 episodes, but now since the prison riot, it's been less Scofield, and more of everyone else. I don't recall many noteworthy Scofield scenes since the show came back. Abruzzi got a lot of screentime, as did Lincoln and T-Bag. I guess they realized that while Scofield is an interesting character, they have characters that are just as interesting in supporting roles (or in Lincoln's case, leading role, seeing as how Dominic's name appears as the first name in the cast, followed by Wentworth Miller).

Both Purcell and Miller have done a great job with their respective characters, as have basically the cast in its entiriety. No one really gives a bad performance, although I'm not quite sold on Rockmund Dunbar's performance yet as the newest inmate who knows about the plan. I'll give him time though seeing as how we do not know much about his character yet.

Don't forget that there's another new episode tonight, following an encore of last week's ep. I can't wait.

Another good episode. I cannot wait for the escape. I wonder who will be the one to go? It looks like T-Bag might be but it's a distinct possibility that Fox is purposely misleading us.

I think it's probably the new guy... whoever that guy is. It's not like he's done much.

C-Note, the bald guy who said "Can you dig it." I hope it's him because we hardly know anything about him so I wouldn't care if he left. They had better keep T-Bag and Peter Stomare (forgot name of character) since they're both good villains for later.

But I thought Rockmond Dunbar (C-Note) supposedly signed on for more episodes after Head Cases got canceled?

Meh. Hey, if he got killed, then kudos to the show! :shades:

PS Stormare's character is Abruzzi. :nonono:

I don't know how I forgot the name of Stormare's character since he's my favorite actor on the show (because of his other work as well as PB). Dunbar would seem to be the logical choice or perhap Sucre because he is entirely expendable at this point, albeit likeable.

Also, does anyone think that Michael's relationship with Tancredi is over with now or do you see a romance down the road? That seemed to be where it was headed before he brought his "wife" into the picture for that credit card trick.

I predict FOX will expand the episode order for Prison Break again so they can have more episodes to air for the rest of the season.

I hope but doubt it. The show isn't quite big enough to justify the extra cost.

I am just saying. They made The O.C.'s first season a huge 27 episodes so the show could play through most of the season and that show premiered in August too.

What upcoming show has the potential to be the next Prison Break? Is there anything like it?

Skipping new posts. I missed last week's show (I know, I'm dumb), and I'll be taping both the rerun and new show tonight for me and my dad. I'll finally be back in the loop by tomorrow! :biggrin:

Damn T-Bag. I hate you even more now :disgust: Abruzzi was one of my favorites and they had to go out and kill him!
