I ❤️ loved ❤️ “The Prisoner”. It isn’t a remake of the 1060’s “The Prisoner”. This version has a different setting, different characters, and different ending … I guess you would say it is a “reimagining” of the series.

It is a dramatic, scifi thriller that, granted, is sometimes hard to follow 🥺 and, at times, confusing 🤔 but the confusion is part of the story – for me, it had a “Twilight Zone” feel to the 6-episode series (which was great because I loved “The Twilight Zone” 👏). I’ve had to watch it several times to pick up on different nuances 🤷‍♀️ - but, Jim is particularly 🔥 hot 🔥 in this series so the rewatches were no burden at all. 🥰 While the story isn’t the same, if you watch it closely, the series has a surprisingly similar undertone to the story as the theme of ❤️ “Person of Interest” ❤️ – my all-time favorite TV series.
