William Fichtner

Absolutely incredible acting. Seeing him as a serious and intelligent agent working for the company, seeing his frustrations over being blackmailed. Then his absolutely INCREDIBLE acting during his drug withdrawals and later with the death of his son.

In general I think he is a massively underrated actor.

"In general I think he is a massively underrated actor."

Indeed he is, though not by his peers, who consider him among the most prolific character actors in the biz. Fichtner, much like the method actors who came up in the 50s on thru the 70s and beyond, transcends that of an actor just playing a role and becomes that person. He WAS Mahone.

I vote Robert Knepper

Between those two? Knepper. But over the whole cast, Fichtner.

Edited

Undoubtedly, William Fichtner, whose introduction and presence in S2 raised the bar and made it better than it ever could without him.

And Robert Knepper, whose filmography reflects the range shown throughout his career. Like Fichtner, who does so with every performance, Knepper inhabited and lived inside the role of T-Bag.

Bill Fichtner for me.

For me it‘s definitely William Fichtner as Mahone. I also loved the performance of Wentworth Miller as Scofield, so many details about his character in how he moves or behaves based on how he‘s feeling and subtle small details.

Mahoney any day

Mahone

Robert Knepper. Unbelievable actor in the role of T-bag. He does so much acting with his eyes.

T bag

Apart from those two, maybe John abruzzi?

The actors for Alex Mahone and Tbag

Fichtner for sure.

T bag and Mahone but I have to lean towards T bag. The more you hated him, the better an actor he was

abzurzzi

Wade Williams

I hated that guy af

I genuinely love how no one picks the main two actors haha. My vote would go to either bellick or Sammy

William Fichtner is definitely my favorite actor in the series hands down

Machone also plays the voice of rosenburg gta vice city and San Andreas
