Robert Knepper is finding the bad guy business to be pretty good.
The Prison Break star, who played imprisoned white supremecist leader Theodore “T-Bag” Bagwell, will play the new villain in the fourth season of Heroes, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Knepper’s character Samuel is described as a charismatic but ultimately evil Jim Jones type.
Heroes will begin [...]

Just last week I was talking about how Prison Break – despite one of my favorite shows – wasn’t a series I felt I had to watch immediately. Well, perhaps it was because it was the series finale, but I did find myself glued to the TV at 8:00 on Friday night. And [...]

You know, it’s a curious thing about Prison Break. It’s probably the only series that I’m really into that I can stand not watching. With 24 and Heroes, I make it a point to watch the show that night, even if it means staying up a lot later than I normally would have. [...]

So with only five more episodes left before the series finale, we finally had our first face to face encounter between Michael and his mother. And I have to admit, the ongoing game of mental cat and mouse was fun to watch. I quite enjoyed seeing both Michael and Christina attempting to one-up [...]

So last week I compared Michael and Lincoln’s ruthless mother to Angela Petrelli. As it turns out, the Prison Break matron is named Christina Rose. And the actress who portrays Angela Petrelli? That would be Christine Rose. Deliberate? Coincidental? Who knows?
Speaking of Christina, while I have abundantly enjoyed her [...]

So Prison Break returned this past Friday after a rather long hiatus. Now airing on a new night, and with the network already confirming that the next few episodes will be the last, the show was burdened with the need to remind the audience what happened, while remaining extremely focused on the concluding story [...]

Prison Break will wrap up its final season starting April 17th. On June 2nd, Fox will will release the fourth and final season on both DVD and Blu-ray. Extras for this include Audio Commentary with the Cast and Crew. Also to note for hardcore Prison Break fans, on July 21st Fox will release a straight [...]

They’ve broken out, been the subject of a manhunt, been imprisoned and broken out again. Now the run for Prison Break is at an end.
FOX announced Tuesday (Jan. 13) during its TCA press tour session that Prison Break will end its four-season run in the spring. The final episodes will debut Friday, April 17.
The show’s [...]

Okay, so THIS was the fall finale.
Actually, I really enjoyed this episode. While I’ve spent virtually the entire season complaining about Michael and his crew working with people who are categorically bad people, my absolute favorite scene of this episode was the fallout following the shootout at the Scylla exchange. Yes, I have [...]

I would normally complain about (a) Michael and co. working to retrieve the device for The Company, the very evil organization that they initially stole it from, and (b) Michael and co. now teaming up with the people that had earlier turned on them in order to retrieve the device from the people they originally [...]

While I really enjoyed this week’s installment of Prison Break, I can’t help but feel like it was one of the weaker episodes of the season (although that’s hardly an insult). This definitely felt a bit like a “stalling” episode, acting more as a catalyst of what’s to come than something that is to [...]

I would have sworn that last week’s episode was dubbed the mid-season finale, but man, this series keeps throwing new episodes at us. Last week I remarked how I loved watching the heist play out, because no matter what obstacles were thrown at them, you just knew they had a plan to get out [...]

Another exciting episode of Prison Break, I must admit. There were moments when I was literally sitting at the edge of my seat.
You know how writers seem to get off on making you believe that the good guy is going to succeed, only for something to happen to tumble them down? Sure, it [...]

So a week after my long rant about how nobody’s going ballistic about Prison Break possibly being cancelled (unlike Heroes, which brings in better ratings), rumors began circulating that this could be the series final season. This would be disappointing, of course, but you also have to consider that a show like Prison Break [...]

Have the expert escapees of Prison Break broken into and out of their last hoosegow?
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the show’s cast has been told that two additional episodes may be shot after production ends on the series’ midseason finale. The trade paper speculates that those two episodes could be a resolution to the fourth [...]

In my Heroes column and on my blog, I’ve been discussing this – in my mind – completely unfounded belief that Heroes is on the verge of cancelation. People go on and on about how the ratings have gone down, but consider this: Is anybody out there proclaiming that Prison Break is a [...]

It isn’t unusual for Prison Break characters to return from the dead, so fans should get ready to see a long-lost familiar face.
Remember Charles Westmoreland? Played by Muse Watson, he was a key part of Michael Scofield’s first season plans to escape from Fox River.
Michael believed the old guy was actually the long-lost D.B. Cooper [...]

So the past few weeks I’ve been watching Prison Break with my dad, and any time they break into an office or secure area, he brings up that it was entirely too easy for them to break in, and nobody questions why they’re there. I gotta say, I think this is a perfect example [...]

I’m sure most people will consider this past week’s episode of Prison Break the weakest of the season – and perhaps it has been – but I felt it was a perfectly acceptable “plot advancement” episode. Sure, there was a shootout and a moderately important character died, but even so, this wasn’t the most [...]

A few weeks ago I noted how much I enjoyed a particular episode of Prison Break because of the fact that they broke the team up into two groups. I thought the closer – and in some cases unexpected – interactions really worked better than their roundtable discussions.
That perfectly sums up my feelings on [...]
