Noooooo!


Our greatest hero, Patrick Fucking McGoohan, dead at a way-too-young 80!

You bastards! You should have kept him alive with prayers!



Friday Update: The AV Club has an excellent piece up about P McG's screen persona (which probably mirrored his real-life attitude):
McGoohan faced us in a state of perpetual irritation—sometimes softening to tolerance, more often blossoming into full blown rage, but always with a foundation of contempt for everything and everyone, the fury of a man who judges the world and finds it perpetually wanting.

With contempt for everything and everyone, 80 years sounds like an awful long time to live.

Nah. U should read the actual essay instead of the stupid part I quoted.
