Talk about a no-brainer: Former Prison Break producers Matt Olmstead and Nick Santora are courting Robert Knepper to appear in their new A&E fugitive-themed drama Breakout Kings. The best part? The plan is for Knepper to resurrect his classic PB convict T-Bag!

According to sources, execs at 20th Century Fox ? the studio behind Prison and Kings ? have signed off on the crossover. Now a deal just needs to be hammered out with Knepper, whose killer PB alter ego was sent back to the slammer in the show?s series finale.

Kings, which is described as an ?action-packed ensemble drama following an unconventional partnership between the U.S. Marshals? office and a group of convicts as they work to catch fugitives on the run,? received an 11th hour reprieve last spring from A&E after Fox opted not to pick it up. It?s set to premiere in early 2011.

Check out the show?s first official promo below!

Haha so.. let me tell you that for the first few seasons, I could not stand that mfkr! I mean hello, why would I like a pedo? I hated when PB got you to actually feel for T-Bag for a bit.

I'll probably watch it to see how it is because I'm a sadist.

Yeah I couldn't stand him either or the show tbh but then he got really cool.

I've been seeing T-Bag (Robert Knepper) almost everywhere lately. He was just in an episode of Chase and as someone mentioned already, Stargate Universe, he's in a bunch there. I didn't care for him either at the beginning of Prison Break either for obvious reasons as mentioned.

I will give this show a watch. A&E show's are usually pretty good too. Not sure if anyone has ever watched The Cleaner or The Beast but they were really good and short lived before they were canceled. We obviously know why The Beast was canceled but The Cleaner could of lasted another season or two.

Onetime island protector Mark Pellegrino has been cast as a trained assassin in A&E?s upcoming fugitive-themed drama Breakout Kings, sources confirm to me exclusively.

Pellegrino will guest star as Virgil Downing, a notorious international contract killer who always gets the job done. (Translation: He?s Sayid!) Although he?s suspected in at least-three dozen other killings, his only conviction was for murdering a police commissioner ? six years prior to breaking out of his maximum-security cell.

    • Why Delta Chat is the best decentralized messenger you have probably never tried

      By zikalify · Posted

      You are mostly right about the ephemeral nature of it. As I mention in the article, if you dont add a second device or take a backup of your account before uninstalling it, then yes you will lose access to your account. That said, in terms of actual user experience when you sync multiple devices your message history carries across and there's also a Saved Messages chat like there is on Telegram to send messages and attachments between your installs. But yh, what you point out are correct and its not trying to emulate Messenger or Telegram.
    • You've tried DuckDuckGo and Brave Search, now get serious with SearXNG

      OK so SearXNG is a meta search engine that you can install locally or use via a public instance. It scrapes other search engines which you choose and then sorts the results. Not as complicated as multiple relays

      The only difference here is that you think you came up with these reasons. You didn't. These age old fearmongering lies (that were NEVER true) were funded by and the anger stoked by Putin through proxies like Farage (and later in the USA, Trump) and filtered down through the skinheads, Neonazis, etc. until it reached the uninformed, ignorant, and gullible -- never realizing they were being played for fools against their own best interests. Even now, despite all of the EVIDENCE proving that Brexit was a terrible mistake for ALL citizens of the UK and that its supporters were tricked by Putin's proxies into sabotaging their own nation, you're still here defending these well-known lies as if they were ever true. Not only are they not true. They NEVER were. So, when are you going to realize that you were lied to and actually get angry at the liars and charlatans who lied to you, instead of blaming the innocent people they lied to you about?
