RIP – Patrick McGoohan 1928 – 2009.

The Simpsons episode that’s a partial parody of The Prisoner was on tonight.

I suspect that wasn’t an accident. Someone probably chose to run that episode as a tribute to McGoohan.

When I first saw The Prisoner, I thought Rover (the killer beach ball) was pretty scary. But when I found myself explaining Rover to someone else years afterward, I felt a little silly.
