RIP Patrick McGoohan

Patrick McGoohan March 19, 1928 – January 13, 2009

Peter Falk ... described McGoohan as "the most underrated, under-appreciated talent on the face of the globe. I have never played a scene with another actor who commanded my attention the way Pat did."

I grew up on Secret Agent. I moved on to The Prisoner. I enjoyed watching McGoohan in his handsome-boy secret agent younger days and his villainous older days.

Talented guy. I'm glad he got his accolades while he was around to hear them.
