     It's still pretty inactive, as newsgroups go.  alt.tv.prisoner
seems to average about a post a day.  (At my site, 14 posts have
been received in the last 10 days.)
     Hmm...  Let's see, to make things interesting, how about a
poll?  List your favorite episodes, in order.  I'll assign 17 points
for every first place vote, 16 points for every second place vote,
and so on, and we'll see which episodes do the best.  For reference,
here is a list of the episodes:

Arrival
Free for All
Dance of the Dead
Checkmate
Chimes of Big Ben
The General
A, B, & C
The Schizoid Man
Many Happy Returns
It's Your Funeral
Do Not Forsake Me, Oh My Darling
Living in Harmony
A Change of Mind
Hammer into Anvil
The Girl who was Death
Once Upon a Time
Fall Out
 
We'll ignore the "Alternate" versions of "Chimes of Big Ben" and
"Arrival."  We'll fight the urge to ignore "Do Not Forsake...," and
we'll give it its one point for everybody who votes.  :-)
