Re: The Prisoner Remake - Can it be any good?
i thought the idea was just a six part mini-series, and it has a chance to be good.
for those of you who are used to incredibly clever and original ideas on 267 channels, the prisoner was the only thing out there when it was new. Nothing was even close to as avant garde and thought provoking...Nothing!
Hitchhiker's guide and Dr Who and things might have come along in books or on BBC, but for American teenagers the only thing remotely similar was the twilight zone. if you wanted something besides i love lucy and the honeymooners, the prisoner was it!
