Talk:T-Bag (Prison Break)

message: Why is this character linked to LGBT-characters? His personality is much more complex and his sexual preferences are based on upbringing, surroundings, mental state, etc. He is not a stereotypical stock character on should not be linked as such! Please remove!

message: Prison Break is full of brilliant one-liners, and particularly memmorable is T-Bag, saying something along the lines of:
(speaking about Thailand) "Black market surgery, anonymous transplant donors, hes dressed as shes... What's not to like?
Is it appropriate to include this? I recognise that there is a danger of flooding the characters pages with quotations... —anskas 13:10, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: You could make a Wikiquote page for T-Bag and his quotes, and place a link for it in this wikipedia article, then you could have quotations without flooding the character's page. Siyavash 19:57, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

message: I can't seem to find a way to edit the Trivia, can somebody please remove the annoying typo "don't broking".. I guess that's "not breaking" or something.. 62.163.80.195 11:16, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Trivia typo 

message: When Geary was selling Scofield's cell to the highest bidder, the bidder complained about the leaking toliet seat. T-Bag was the one who found this out, and quickly mustered up a plan with C-Note and Westmorland to save the cell from being bought. 
T-Bag may have done it for his own self as well (since Scofield's failure will lead to his failure from breaking out as well), but I think this feat from Bagwell deserves a mention in the Season 1 article.
I had edited the article before and included it, someone rectified the article with more accurate terms, but now its deleted. Can someone please add this back?? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Params7 (talk • contribs) 14:15, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I deleted it because I was trying to make the article shorter (with little success) and that seemed to me, while important, more of a stand-alone incident. Do you know if you could integrate it into the article as part of another paragraph (for example, "this plan included T-Bag doing such and such when..." in addition to another fact)?--CyberGhostface 19:52, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

message: The "Appearances" section provides a summary of the character's plot in the season. It should be kept brief and is not supposed to contain details concerning the show's plot. Also, the summary should be written in such a way so that it adheres to the guidelines in Wikipedia:Writing about fiction. I've rewritten the season 2 Appearances section. Please try to write with a "perspective of the real world", unlike the former summary which was written totally with an in-universe perspective. Regards, Ladida 13:25, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

:The racist category was deleted because it was deemed to be subjective and POV...which is bullshit if you ask me, because if someone hates other races then they're a racist, but apparently the majority disagrees.--CyberGhostface 21:00, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

message: I don't have any confirmation or words from the directors or writers, but I hve noticed that the name 'Theodore Bagwell' could have come from a real-life american serial killer called 'Theodore Cowell'.
If it wasn't, then that is a very odd coincidence.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by DrTheKay (talk • contribs) 07:49, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Interesting, but unless you know that the creators based it off of that, it would be original research.--CyberGhostface (talk) 12:57, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Name Derived from an actual serial killer?

message: Would it be safe to assume T-Bag is also a paedophile? There was an episode in the second season where he tries to seduce a young girl, and then when it doesn't go to plan he kills her father (though I don't think he did anything with the girl).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.53.153.152 (talk) 12:35, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: He's not a pedophile. If one were to read the Pedophilia article or any valid article about pedophilia, it is clear. The girl he tried to coerce into sex was a teenager...or at least she looked like one. Although, she was a young teen, looked about 14, that's still not pedophilia. Pedophilia isn't necessarily about the act anyway. There are plenty of child molesters who aren't pedophiles (in fact, most of them aren't). T-Bag is a sexual predator, though.

replies: text: Lots of reliable sources (I.E. interviews with Robert Knepper) have all called T-Bag a pedophile.--CyberGhostface (talk) 13:02, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Then that's those sources...but realistically...he isn't. Flyer22 (talk) 20:37, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Because?--CyberGhostface (talk) 20:41, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The pedophilia article, as well as many valid articles, make clear why he isn't. The actor who portrays this character even says that he (T-Bag) would have sex with anything. I've already answered above anyway. I'm not here to debate what the actors/creators have said on this topic. That IP asked a question, and I simply gave him (or her) an honest answer. What the actors/creators have said/say about this character is another matter. Flyer22 (talk) 20:56, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

text: Years later, and I'm back at this article. Again, pedophilia is not necessarily defined by the act. Men have raped prepubescent children during war rape as well, but that often had nothing to do with those men being pedophiles. Like I stated before, read the Pedophilia article and its WP:Reliable sources (I mean medical sources) that define pedophilia. That stated, yes, there are some researchers who define any sexual attraction to prepubescent children as pedophilia; the sexual attraction is not always defined as a preference, primary or exclusive, in the medical literature; this means even some situational child sexual abuse offenders are pedophiles by some researchers' definitions.

message: How about including a few lines on T-Bags apparent sadness about Belics death? Season 4 when Belic dies, T-Bag first looks a little shook up about the news of Belics death, later on during a sales meeting where T-Bag is giving a speech he talks about Belic and his death, T-Bag has tears in his eyes. 194.46.177.146 (talk) 19:38, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
