Is the TV show The Prisoner available on Netflix, Disney+, Prime or Apple TV+?

At Stream Tracker, we’re taking a look at The Prisoner (1967) — Patrick McGoohan’s surreal, often Kafkaesque thriller about a secret agent who quits, is nabbed, and wakes up in an apparently idyllic but sinister place known only as The Village. As Number Six refuses to give his captors anything, the show’s taut cat-and-mouse game — complete with Rover, warders, and the famous refrain “I am not a number” — still feels like a mind-bending escape room. We’ll also check where to watch it today: is Number Six hiding on Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video or AppleTV+? The series earned strong critical acclaim at the time and has been honoured repeatedly since, becoming a lasting touchstone of 1960s television.

Synopsis

Shortly after handing in his resignation, a former intelligence officer is abducted and taken to a picture‑perfect village that masks a nightmarish, Kafka‑like detention. Pressed for secrets by inscrutable wardens, he keeps his silence and channels all his efforts into finding a way out.
