This November, AMC is doing a six episode remake, of The Prisoner. Starring Jim Caviezel, and Sir Ian McKellen. It actually looks like the remake is worthy of the original. Patrick McGoohan, would approve.

It seems, the theme is more appropriate now than ever.

McGoohan, in a rare TV interview, talking about the concept.

I will miss the Lotus Seven.

I loved this series when it first came out! I was in design school at the time, studying photography, video, etc., and this one broke all the rules-- and wonderfully so!

I have the series on DVD and every so often enjoy a "Prisoner Festival".

I didn't see the re-make. Now that I live under a rock without cable or satellite TV, I don't watch much.
