The Prisoner

Für die Bewertung der einzelnen Folgen habe ich nur die oberen 10 % der Skala gebraucht. Gegen Ende wurde die Serie vielleicht eine Spur zu surreal. Die Symbolik, Bildsprache und Allegorien, welche sich durch alle Episoden ziehen, verdienen eine genaue Untersuchung. Britischer Tee empfiehlt sich. Wir sehen uns! 👌

Might have been novel and interesting in the 60s, but I find it empty and shallow, I saw one episode and dont want to torment myself by watching another one, as I can see that it continues the same fragmented, absurd (foolish) style.

This is one of the best TV series I've ever seen. Though one season, that's what was intended. Think James Bone meets "Lost". So original, so smart and works on many levels. Sci-fi, spy thriller and drama fans should enjoy it. Many kudos!

Someone insufferable must have reviewed this as "The Dark Souls of TV dramas" (its me, i'm sorry)

This screams 60's, it seems like a direct art direction influence for Austin Powers and other 60s' nostalgia derivatives. The concept itself is great, a half entrapped island of people who sporadically act in unison to gather a single piece of information, a completely inefficient way of uncovering what they are looking for, but hey. Finally, the 'enhanced interrogation techniques' on show could also be a major influence for Dick Cheney's playbook. Crying out for a modern reboot. Be seeing you.

batshit crazy finale

Interestingly peculiar.

Each week a new psychological battle with sci-fi trimmings. Loved it back when I was too young to understand and think even better of it now.
