Mr. Silly Posted March 30, 2020 Share #1 Posted March 30, 2020 The Prisoner's intro is a full minute longer than Petticoat Junction's. Also, there is a point where you think it is finally over and the show is about to begin then the opening starts all over. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razors Edge ★ Posted March 30, 2020 Share #2 Posted March 30, 2020 Probably a better show deserving a better & longer intro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It tells the story of how he ended up as a prisoner in the village. He was a spy for England and resigned. He goes home and rushes to get away when he's gassed. He wakes up and tries to find out who is in charge. He declares that he is not a number but a human. Tries to escape and is captured by a bubble. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MickinMD ★ Posted March 30, 2020 Share #7 Posted March 30, 2020 That was an intriguing show where The Prisoner, an ex-British government spy, doesn't know who is imprisoning him or why - except they seem to want to know why he quit being a spy. I don't remember the series lasting more than 2-3 years. Did he ever find out why he was a prisoner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started watching it while working from home. I am 4 episodes in and I am enjoying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Amazon Prime and it will be fun to watch it again! Right now, I'm catching up on the 3rd Season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
