The Prisoner

Did anyone else watch the first part of this mini-series on AMC last night? Pretty cool. Ian McKellen is great, as always.

It's good in parts and then other parts it's terrible. The trippy parts were intentionally made too trippy to be watchable.

I've been enjoying it.
But, of course, it has that Twin Peaks, mindfuck quality that I go in for.

I still have to watch the 2nd and 3rd parts - sitting on my DVR.

They remade the classic '60s series? I watched it as a kid and, later, got to watch the whole thing for a college English class. I'll have to try and catch it.

I'm sure AMC will replay it; if not, just grab the DVDs when they come out.

By then it will likely hit our Canadian Sci Fi network, "Space."
