He wasn't part of my childhood landscape—Patrick McGoohan is why weather balloons are haunted and uncanny.
You know, I've never actually seen more than a little bit of The Prisoner. I suppose that's another of the numerous things I should remedy, at some point.
I do know the feeling, though for some reason much of what I remember of TV from childhood most vividly seems to be either a) things my parents were watching, or b) odd little bits like a dialogueless stop-motion (?) short involving little creatures that looked like pigs and which apparently lived on the Moon.
Although even as I stay that I start thinking about things like The Muppet Show and various cartoons. Memory is a strange thing.

Ricardo Montalban's died as well--it just came on the TV. I'm surprised they didn't refer to his having played Khan.

I saw that, too. He wasn't part of my childhood landscape—Patrick McGoohan is why weather balloons are haunted and uncanny.
