I loved the old show, but man there were some stinker episodes. Of the 17, maybe half are worth watching more than once. And I loathe the final episode with a passion beyond words. -------------------- stePH "Hope is a fickle trollop that I lost a bet to many eons ago, in another life when I was a single cell organism trying to evolve.

It feels like a cross of the original and Lost to me.

Wait, what? On further review- Lost reminds me of the original Prisoner. I never made the conection 'til now. Many of the same themes... who's watching who, who do you trust, what's in a name, the guy in charge really isn't, it's hard to tell the good guys from the bad guys, even a village full of happy smiling people.

But I gotta tell you if the finale of either show has a guy wearing a mask and singing I may throw a brick at my TV

I knew I liked in when I felt that pang of regret that there would be no new episode last night. To say anything else, would be a spoiler. -------------------- I've seen things you little people wouldn't believe... Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion bright as magnesium... I rode on the back decks of a blinker and watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tanhauser Gate. All those moments... they'll be gone. Roy Batty, Nexus 6 from Blade Runner (1982)

Did you seriously just "wait, what?" your own post?
