            I really tried to like it, but I couldn't get into it....
            Too familiar with the original, which I really like.

                  I liked it.....it's just wierd and trippy enough to have been made in the 60's but with todays effects. I never watched the original so don't have that as a comparison. Ian Mckellen just oozes evil.

                        The first hour was decent enough, although I am coming into it with little memory of the original. Haven't caught the 2nd hour yet, and am not taping hours 3&4 until tomorrow (right before hours 5&6) due to TIVO conflicts.

                          Watched the first 2 hours and I am feeling less than impressed. maybe this is becuase I have seen the original series multiple times and rewatched it just a month ago (it was available on demand)

                          Ian Mckellum is excellent in the tradtion of orignal line up of #2's but Caveziel can't hold a candle to Patrick's performance

                          not a keeper for me but I will watch it all the way through

                            I'm liking it...I'm on episode three...the remaining episodes are on my DVR schedule.

                            Leads James Caviezel and Ian McKellen are excellent...that's why it works.

                            I think Patrick McGoohan would've been proud of the remake.

                            It's certainly more thoughtful and superior than your usual Network garbage fare like that new awful ABC V series.

                              I think it's a little unfair to make that comparison...we all know Patrick McGoohan is the one and only Prisoner/6...but James Caviezel is a great actor in his own right.
