Very much in the style of the prisoner
According to a Sci-fi Channel press-release; "'Persons Unknown' is a surreal mind-game of a series centering on a group of strangers who awaken in a deserted town with no memory of how they arrived, only to realize that there is no escape. Watched by omnipresent security cameras, their every attempt at leaving the town's borders is thwarted by mysterious forces."
Certainly sounds like a familiar formula, especially given that McQuarrie once wrote a "Prisoner" movie script.
