Dear Julie: Thank you for the encouraging feedback. I believe in supporting our wonderful local artists, so I always try to come back with something (or somethings) from the Studio Tour. As a result, the walls in the Logical Lizard’s home are a little crowded, but it’s all for a very good cause and makes for a colorful living room. Thanks for posting. Cheers — LL

Dear Nighan: We can only hope that new viewers will be interested enough to go back and watch the original. McGoohan’s Prisoner is available in all its splendour in various DVD editions. I re-watched the entire series, from beginning to the rather puzzling end, fairly recently, and it more than stands the test of time. Thank you for writing! Cheers — LL

Hey I like your screen name, nice one : ) Glad to know that some readers enjoyed the remake, seriously. They put a lot of time and effort into it, but it didn’t work for me. It just seemed too much like ordinary American TV drama. Anyway, that’s just my opinion. More power to you for liking both the original and the remake! And thank you for visiting The Logical Lizard. Cheers — LL

Dear AMR71: Thank you for your comments. I was wondering if we’d hear from any viewers who enjoyed the remake, but had not seen the original. Interesting to know that if you’ve not seen the original series, the remake stands on its own for some viewers. Check out the original sometime. I think you’ll find it even better. Regards — LL

I have been a fan of the original since the first time I saw it… have the box set DVD collection, Love McGoohan, etc.

AND I THOUGHT THE REMAKE WAS AWESOME.

Great account of your Open Studio Tour adventure! Even though I missed most of those artists (I too, end up spending most of my time at a few studios), I still felt like I was there. Also glad to see you bought artwork!

“Seems that Jesus is just a number”
Good that I am not the only one to think like that!

I’d never even heard of the original series when I saw the ads for the AMC remake, so I was able to come into it with any comparisons or expectations. I thought it was a terrific psychological drama, and I have to say it left me guessing right up to the end. I loved seeing how the “real world” slowly unfolded to show us what might be going on. Ian McKellen was terrific as expected. I only knew Jim Caviezel from “Frequency,” a favorite in our house, but I thought he did a good job portraying a guy who moves from being totally confused about his surroundings to determined to figure it all out. Oh, and as a bonus, Hayley Atwell was absolutely gorgeous.
