Jess and Chris continue their monthly journey into the weird world
of single seasons TV shows with a continued look at 1967's spy
science fiction mashup The Prisoner.

The show, created by the main star Patrick McGoohan, follows Number
Six, a secret agent who, after turning in his resignation, is
kidnapped by unseen forces and sent to the Island. The Island is a
home for dissenters, and other individuals deemed too dangerous to
live in the public unchecked. As Number Six attempts to unravel the
mystery behind why he has been sent to the Island, he must also
rebuff attempts at cracking his psyche to figure out what secrets
he may know.

Jess and Chris talk about the show's formulaic endings, Patrick
McGoohan's stodgy nature, and much more!

You can follow Jess @writerjessbyard, Chris @casualty_chris, and
@oneseasonshow along with a big thanks to Chalalatas for their song
"Mustaches and Martinis."
