Patrick McGoohan


David and Marta'a blog post about Ricardo Montalban reminded me of some recent sad news about someone very dear to us.  Patrick Magoohan, or "Number 6" has passed away at the age of 80. This may be for the best, depending on how this AMC remake of The Prisoner (starring the guy who played Jesus) turns out. It is set to premier in November.

The Prisoner is the single greatest television series ever and the passing of the star of that series didnt even make CNN!! I am outraged!!
