My own take on the complaints about McGoohan is that we all know UFO was not
the greatest TV series ever filmed and we love it anyway. But McGoohan
seemed to take special delight in dissing anything he was not personally
involved in or in charge of. (But then guest starred in multiple Colombo
episodes. VBG)

As a full-on fan of "The Prisoner," I really have to laugh at the amount
of this thread that is complaining that an entire TV series was
constructed to be completely true to the artistic vision of a single
creator.

I mean, like the result, don't like the result, it's your thang or it
isn't, but it's a much purer work of actual art than most TV we watch,
which is made by committee, with commercial, rather than artistic,
concerns guiding many decisions.
