Robert Knepper T-Bag of Prison Break Hasn’t Been Nominated for an Emmy Because of Politically Correct BS
One of the biggest crimes in the TV industry is that actor Robert Knepper, Theodore ‘T-Bag’ Bagwell of “Prison Break” on Fox has never been nominated for an Emmy which is almost certainly due to politically correct BS. T-Bag, Robert Knepper’s character you see, is a psychopathic white supremacist rapist murdering bisexual with sexual interests ranging from young teenagers to adults. He was born of both incest and rape; his father had sexually assaulted his Down syndrome-afflicted sister, who later gave birth to Theodore. Despite this, T Bag has an exceptionally high IQ, an eloquence of language and incredible charm to women.
I truly believe that when Robert Knepper first appeared on the show as T-Bag it was for a limited part that would end probably in death in the first season. Knepper did such a fantastic job with the character and became a fan favorite despite T-Bag’s pure evil psychopath, that I’m guessing the people at Fox decided not to kill him off due to his popularity. This is pure speculation on my part. In my opinion, without T-Bag, Prison Break would lose most of its entertainment factor. In fact a lot of people watch Prison Break for T-Bag not the shows heroes Michael Schofield and Lincoln Hayes! Robert Knepper portrays T-Bag like he’s doing Shakespeare. The only comparable character on TV I can think of is Al Swearengen on Deadwood portrayed by Ian McShane who at least was nominated for an Emmy,
I guess the people who vote for the Emmy’s don’t have the balls to nominate Robert Knepper for a part TV Guide’s Maya Schechter called “one of the creepiest characters on television” due to their obvious political correctness. After all how can they reward someone for performing a psychopathic rapist murderer of teenage boys amongst other villainous acts? I guess it doesn’t dawn on them that despite the character being so sick and vile, Robert Knepper must be doing such a fantastic job because people actually love the character of T-Bag? Instead someone like Ellen Burstyn gets nominated for an Emmy for a 14 second, two-line, 38-word role in HBO’s “Mrs. Harris”? Showbiz!
