AMC and ITV will remake Patrick McGoohan's cult TV show "The Prisoner" as a six-part mini with Ian McKellen as Number Two and Jim Caviezel as Number Six.
The show, skedded to air in 2009, originally was announced by distrib Granada as a co-production between AMC and Brit net Sky One. But Sky One reportedly nixed the deal when the nets couldn't agree on who should play Number Six.

I watched 16 some hours of the prisoner one day. That was a pretty good day.

shouldn't happen.

don't try and fix what ain't broken.

also, they're gonna have to dumb this show down a lot to even have a chance to play with modern audiences.

supreme disappointment.
