The Prisoner (remake) (AMC)

In a modern take on the 1960s series, a man wakes up on a mysterious island with no recollection of how he got there or why he's there. Referred to only by a number and under constant surveillance, he tries to make sense of his new surroundings and hopefully escape.

Cast features Jim Caviezel and Ian McKellen.

From the looks of the screenshot, it looks like they still have Rover protecting the borders.

Nice!

Review on NPR yesterday said that if you were a fan of the original, don't waste your time on this one. They diluted everything that made it so interesting and so Orwellian.

I listened to that too, Zenny. I'll give the first episode a shot, but it didn't sound promising.

Did anyone watch last night? I recorded it, and it's set to record again tonight, but if it's not any good I'll bail on it so I can watch Heroes and MNF.
