Certainly that's a relatively productive use of your time. A few years ago, my stint of unemployment was mostly spent playing Warcraft III. If only I had a blog and a NetFlix account back then. :)

Anyhow, I'm glad to read that a few folks are interested in this subject. I hope to start some episode by episode posts shortly. That is after I get my head wrapped around Fallout and caught up with BSG...

I got into this show when I was unemployed in Los Angeles and needed to fill my time with something. The central library had all sorts of shows on VHS and The Prisoner was one of them that I quite enjoyed. I only got about 10 eps in though, so off to Netflix for me! Thanks for the reminded.

Also, the music is pretty good too. There are several releases available, including the remastered original recordings.

I'd seen all the epsidoes before, about 10 years ago when it was repeated on TV and decided to buy the DVD boxset the day after reading your post.

It's fantastric. 7 episodes down. I'm trying to limit myself but it seems when I watch one, I want to watch another straight away.

My favourite so far has been A/B/C or Chimes of Big Ben... be seeing you!

I'm going to see if I can borrow the DVDs from my friend so I can rewatch. It's been so long that I don't remember details, so this may be a good excuse to refresh my memory.

Hi Bryce, yeah so at least you'll be one reader who joins me on this trip - anyways I should be caught up by the end of this week. I really liked 12 monkeys so that's good to hear about a movie adaptation. Oh and Christoper Nolan = thumbs up too.

Eng I never heard of that series (surprise!). Obviously, there's a lot I haven't heard of. I'm glad I have this blog to learn about new stuff I might like.

I quite liked the first season of this one: http://imdb.com/title/tt0112104/

One of my college roommates discovered this series and bought the DVDs. I was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed it.

Also, I read last August that Christopher Nolan was in talks to direct a movie version based on a script by the same people that wrote 12 Monkeys. I haven't heard anything new about it, but I still have my fingers crossed. That could be really awesome.
