Anyone else here been following the miniseries with Jim Caviezel and Ian McKellan?

If you have, what do you think of it? It's pretty intense IMO, and a real mind-blower to try and follow, especially only being six episodes long (major cramming of information, and the back-and-forth is recipe for major headaches, lol), and some things are never explained. I don't think it was bad, but I kind of wonder where they were hoping to go with the series; lotta loose ends left.

Also, if anyone can make any sense of how the gorram series ended, please explain it to me, it's confusing the absolute hell outta me.

I watched the three episodes, i didn't know there was more. I liked the first 2 episodes, the third i just lost interest. I know they said it was the show that everyone was waiting for, but i don't think it was.

Patrick McGoohan IS the Prisoner.

Have to say the remake, although exploring social themes, doesn't meet the standard. Just not up to the original, IMHO.

Have not seen the original (bf has, apparently), how did it go, in terms of storyline? (if it's as confusing as the remake was, forget about it, lol)

recluse: each night two episodes aired, or at least one ep in two parts. all i know is each one hour segment had a different name, and each night aired two hours.

Which brings me to the question: why the hell did they air it all at once? O_o
