I had kind of forgotten about “The Prisoner”. There is a megaton of exciting Sci-Fi coming in the fall and early winter and I’m afraid AMC’s “The Prisoner”, starring Ian McKellen and Jim Caviezel, just kind of got pushed out of my frontal lobe. AMC has released an extended trailer for the show and frankly my mouth was open the entire time I watched it. AMC doesn’t fool around kids. The network is also the home of the fantastic Breaking Bad and Mad Men. The Prisoner is going to rock your world. See more Prisoner stuff at AMC.

This… looks… AMAZING.
Really? I thought it looked lame. A weak and pointless re-hash of every “wanna-be” cult TV show of the last ten years. The real Prisoner is stronger than this in every way; all the bits in this trailer that looked any good are ripped straight from the original. I can't see the point of remaking something that was so good; I mean, fair enough, remake Battlestar Galactica – the original was rubbish and the remake was infinitely better by comparison, but The Prisoner? They are just using the name to drum up interest in something that wouldn't register as a blip otherwise.
If you liked the look of this the I cannot recommend the original highly enough (I have to imagine you've not seen it, as if you had and preferred the look of this then I would despair of humanity)…
