I watched the first three epis of this last night and found it ok it reminded me a bit of quantum leap . But the premise was very differant im not sure if i will continue with it though. It has a sort of intrest as he goes from job to job righting peoples wrongs for them in a semi super hero role .

Glad to see you've discovered something new to enjoy.  When I read your first comment I thought..."Oh no, he's starting to sound like Bala!"   Happy to see that's not the case.

That's OK.  You can't be expected to watch EVERY show that comes on the site.  You'd never be away from the computer.

i'm trying to  but it difficult i also giving  Californication. a miss because i don't explicit content on a show.

I agree with you 100% on that...I don't like explicit content either.

I love the Pretender. But I agree that at some points in the show there isn't much going on except Jarod living and helping people. This show was made before the era of Prison Break and Lost. This is how they did it in the old days. Slower, but you have a great deal of time to get to know the main characters.

In addition to liking Jarod very well, I also love the character Sydney, and his relationship with Jarod. For all of you out there just checking this out - look forward the the season 2 finale, it's really good. And the best episodes is, I believe at the end and start of each season. But always something good, though.

For you admins - there are two television movies added to this show. Are you going to upload those as well?

Not that I know of.  Feel free to put your request for them in the New Show Suggestions thread.


p.s. Wow, Gary!  You sure go through the shows quickly.  I'm still finishing up season 3 of SG Atlantis, before the new season starts.

I checked out the first few episodes of The Pretender and like it, but like you Barb I'm still in the 2nd season of Sg-1.
Well, I also have been re-watching the last few episodes of all my shows that have upcoming Fall Premiers!!! I've been quite the busy viewer!!.......LOL

I have seen every episode and the movies.  I particularly enjoy the new discoveries Jarod makes in each episode.  Like when he discovered halloween.  My favorite character has to be Miss Parker.  She is one tough lady

I know this isn't a new show, but it's a good one.  Feel free to post your thoughts in this thread.

It seems we'll see more of "The Pretender" soon!

Cool!  Thanks for the article.  I hope it pans out.
Author: munch    Time: 1-31-2008 18:11

Ditto,  COOL.  I am a big fan.  In our home we only own 2 series (complete) on DVD - The Pretender and Stargate SG-1.  If it comes back I hope Miss Parker is in it too.

FYI.  I was surfing around looking for more on this "comeback" when I discovered that Weiss is an artist.  Check it out:

I only first found this sight because i was so desperate to watch the final season and happily google brought me to this website where i FINALLY got to watch the end of this show which i wished it had never finished. If you haven't watched this show and came across by happy chance u really should have a look its such a unique n original show.
Its different it can be serious but funny in its own way.
MUST WATCH LOL
