Anyone else interested in watching the new miniseries based off the great show from the 60's, The Prisoner?

Watched it, mostly. I wasn't giving it my full attention, so had a difficult time following some of it. Overall, it was about what I expected...a pretty good show that had no chance of living up to the original. It was worth watching.

I may just spend my time and re-watch the original. With Thanksgiving coming up I should be able to get through the whole thing in one day.

I haven't seen the new one, actually, but I've been watching the original with my roommate, and it's pretty good. He say that the new one took out all the good stuff, but regardless, the old one seems good enough to not need a remake, really.

Yeah, I think I will skip the new one. The original is just to good.
