Watch The Prisoner Online…for FREE


Patrick McGoohan’s The Prisoner is now up and running for free and totally legal, brought to you by AMC, who is producing the new Prisoner TV series. The Prisoner is one of the most deep TV series ever. Each episode is stand-alone except the last two. The Prisoner is the story of an English secret agent who has resigned, but was kidnapped and put on an island (The Village) with other people who know too much. He is assigned a number (6), and battles his oppressors (lead by the ever-changing Number Two) with his wits, not violence. The Village is supposed to be an Utopian society, but it really a high-tech 1984 fascist society.
Recommended episodes:

2- The Chimes of Big Ben (Escape?)
4- Free For All (election parody)
5- The Schizoid Man (Number Six vs…Number SIX?)
6- The General (Man vs Computer)
7- Manny Happy Returns (Back to London!)
14- Living in Harmony (The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly)
16- Once Upon a Time (The Final Battle!)
17- Fall Out (’nuff said!)

Optional episodes:
1- Arrival- Truthfully, as long as you watch the opening credits for every other epside, this one is not necessary. Total set-up episode. Watch only if you are curious, the Recommended Episdodes are better. Don’t make this your first episode.
3- A, B, and C- Can Number Two find out Number Six’s secrets via dream manipulation? Great background history of Number Six.
8- Dance of the Dead- Deep symbolism masquerade.
9- Checkmate- Who can Number Six trust?
10- Hammer Into Anvil- Murder mystery.
11- It’s Your Funeral- Number Two assassination plot.
12- A Change of Mind- Number Six gets his mind rewired.

Weird Ones
13- Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling- Patrick McGoohan couldn’t film the full episode, so Number Six switched bodies.
15- The Girl Who Was Death- Storybook tale.

    This time around I realized that the raccoon was free from suffering now. It's a shame its life had to end like that- it was blameless; humans built roads in the middle of his ancestor's forest. Progress and technology broke that raccoon's legs and took his life tonight. But now the suffering has ended for it. I mourned the raccoon and the way […]

    ust a quick observation before I run: I jumped from watching 1980's pro wrestling to the 1991 Survivor Series because WWE put up the whole PPV online for a limited time. It never fails to amaze me how much things change. It was like I was in a time machine from 1987 to 1991... […]
