Default The Prisoner

Hello

Whether or not it is dated is entirely up to you.

Just keep in mind that it was a surrealist drama from the 1960's.

For some additional context; I feel it is less dated by a considerable degree than the original season of Star Trek that was recently released as well.

For myself, in any time, it is outstanding.

When it was originally broadcast, it was a continium of his previous television show Secret Agent Man, which also was outstanding.

Historically, it was the first television series to continue on from another; this might still be so, in the most direct sense.

That it endures, is a testament to the many that still appreciate it.


Thank You

Some episodes are dated and others are not. The clothing is somewhat.

I would say if you can handle Connery's Bond, you can handle this.

Great everyone lists the correct street date for the release except best Buy who lists the BD set for 11/10 and the reg DVD set 10/27 !

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....p=1&id=2001109

their titles are usually a bit pricy but I usually have great luck at price matching for other retail chains.

Just ordered this from Amazon. Too bad it doesn't have the Simpsons parody of The Prisoner episode "The Computer Wore Menace Shoes" as an extra feature.
