"The Prisoner" - I am not a number, I am a free man. (laughter). Rover will get you. Also Rover appeared in a Simpson's episode about the Movementarians "The Joy of Sect" when Marge runs through a field to escape the cult.

Nerd am I. Big nerd.

Bonus nerd points if you can make a cogent argument for the Prisoner being a political satire rather than a psychological exploration.

I remember that in the Simpsons.
It always struck me as spy drama with bizarre & dark comedic overtones.
Is that the satire part?
Consider.....
- The beautiful setting with wonderful grounds, & an ocean view.
- No one seems to have to work....they just entertain themselves all day...the opposite of torture.

It's not really an argument for anything....just aspects I enjoyed.
