RIP, Patrick McGoohan

Patrick McGoohan, of Secret Agent and The Prisoner fame, has passed away at age 80.

I was a Secret Agent fan back in my long, long ago youthful years. I’ve never watched The Prisoner, however. Coincidentally, I read some chatter about The Prisoner in my FriendFeed channel earlier in the month. This series is 17 episodes in all; the people chatting about it loved the show.

I think I owe myself a trip to Amazon to acquire the DVD set.

    I’ll go so far as to say the Prisoner is the best series in the history of television. Unqualified, just sheer best.

    I gotta check it out, then. Guess maybe it was you and other folk on FF that I read a week or so ago.

    I’ll place a road order for the DVDs whilst we’re on the Search for America Tour, strategically timed so it will arrive for my uncompress days after we get back.
