I wonder if anyone else here remembers The Prisoner, a 60's series starring Patrick McGoohan, which I am currently rewatching on DVD.

I remember that show from decades ago.  Wasn't it made in the 1960's?  I remember people have said that it was quite a good series.   I am glad that you were able to find it on DVD.

@hermit Oh dear, I've got a good friend (older than me) who is utterly obsessed with that series — he watched it on TV when it first came out in the 1960s and of course has rewatched the video and/or DVD recordings many times since, and he can quote every episode extensively and just finds the whole thing an utter delight. I've only watched a little of it, and while it's very intriguing and surreal and I can see why it's a "cult classic", that sort of thing is not really my cup of tea, so to speak. But if you're over here in the UK, you can visit Portmeirion, the private village in Wales where the whole series was filmed. I've been there once and it is very colourful and quirky, just like it appears in the show — and of course there are lots of Prisoner-related souvenirs for sale there, so it's well worth it if you're a fan (and very interesting even for those of us who aren't).  

@courtenay I actually did visit Portmeirion some years ago, which was very interesting. Although I would consider myself a fan of the series I'm not quite on the same obsessive level as your friend.

Most of the series is very quirky and rather surreal, but the last few episodes veer off into total surrealistic fantasy. I gather the final episode caused quite a bit of controversy when it was first aired. It wasn't the sort of ending most people had been expecting.

I have been rewatching the first season of Little House on the Prairie and really enjoy seeing the show again after many years. Today’s television doesn’t offer much of family drama like that series was.  The show was a rather loose adaptation of the books, but it had much fine acting.  I think it is well worth revisiting especially if you haven’t seen it in a long time. 🙂

I ordered the first season of Little House on the Prairie on Blu-ray.  I have some other separate episodes on DVD.  It is worth buying the series on physical media if you really like it, and just one season is not that expensive. It is definitely worth a rewatch when many of today’s shows aren’t worth watching again. I would encourage anyone to at least borrow the series if you do not wish to own it, but I think buying it may be the best option especially for the first season. I love rewatching old shows without commercials. 🙂
