      The Prisoner is arguably the grandfather of like 90% of modern television, not just Severance. Phenomenal show

        Imagine a time before tv shows had antiescape spheres. How did writers get by. :)

        And yet, someone decided to down vote my comment.

        I actually wish they’d left a reason, it might have been an interesting discussion.

            That actually got a laugh out loud.

            Take these suggestions.

            “Night’s Master” by Tanith Lee. Back in the time when the Earth was still flat, a demon prince used to ride the skies nightly, looking for humans to seduce and/or torment.

            “Dark Voyage” by Alan Furst. In 1941 a Dutch sea captain is seconded to the British Navy. His freighter and its motley crew are going to transport spies into enemy ports, disguised as a neutral ship.

            Enjoy your afternoon.

            Am curious as a fan of both series, is there a beef between The Prisoner and Twin Peaks? I couldn’t imagine a fan of one not loving the other

              I don’t think it’s beef, so much as the Prisoner is less popular and most people are exposed to Twin Peaks by a friend or podcaster who says ‘This is the show responsible for modern television like x-files, sopranos, and breaking bad’ - which the downvoted comment contradicts.

              I’m just guessing though, making a lot of assumptions
