Why?

Here: En.wikipedia.org

Any other Prisoner fan would know my dedication instantly.
Insert "username checks out..." meme here.

I could dedicate a small book on the Prisoner.

The show possessed many of the thematic elements for a 60s TV show.
Yet it was vastly different from anything then. Most shows today
dont even compare to it.

McGoohans vision for the show is unique.

Summary: "The protagonist is assigned Number Six, but he repeatedly refuses the pretence of his new identity. Number Six is monitored heavily by Number Two, the Village administrator, who acts as an agent for the unseen "Number One". A variety of techniques are used by Number Two to try to extract information from Number Six, including hallucinogenic drug experiences, identity theft, mind control, dream manipulation, and various forms of social indoctrination and physical coercion. All of these are employed not only to find out why Number Six resigned as an agent, but also to elicit other purportedly dangerous information he gained as a spy."

The sci-fi and mystery elements of the Prisoner have been an influence.

And I've always wanted to model the Village in a map.

Be seeing you!
