I have had the complete set of the PRETENDER for years. Every few years I watch them. It is a really great series. I had bought the set for my brother because he loved it, too. Then, I loaned by set to my grandson, and he is really "in to it", too, so I bought the entire set for him also. I bet I get my whole family hooked on PRETENDER soon!

Classic Timeless Series but is way overpriced due to an ongoing lack of current production, distribution and availability of new copies. My biggest.complaint is the pathetic use of Double Sided DVD's which are nearly impossible to safely handle and use. I have had so many problems with them and had to buy two extra sets to finally get one of the seasons to work properly. The costs of one sided DVD's, compared to using double sided disc's, is insignificant. Trying to juggle these fragile discs is beyond the limits of frustration! Great series but this is a truly horrible media format being used to market a high demand classic series.

Pretender is one of my Favorite series. I missed many of the original and rerun shows due to work schedule. I'm excited to finally complete my set with the purchase of Season 4 so I can enjoy my retirement with a Pretender Marathon any time I wish. ;-) I was disappointed with the final show of Season Four because I felt it left too many questions unanswered. It's as if there really wasn't an "ending" to any of the plots. Interviews with the writing staff at the end of Season Four Set explains what really happened. They purposely created such a strong cliff hanger for end of season ..but.. surprise was on them when network didn't pick up the show for another season ....... however ......... There is a double movie set available that hopefully answers many of our questions: PRETENDER 2001 - PRETENDER: ISLAND OF THE HAUNTED. Double Feature includes: Disc 1 - Side A: "Pretender 2001" - Picking up where the television series left off, Jarod reunites with two old friends and unleashes some powerful Centre revelations. This film opens with a sequence that will allow it to be enjoyed by individuals who have not yet seen the TV series. Disc 1 - Side B: "Pretender: Island Of The Haunted" - Through a series of bizarre circumstances, Jarod and Miss Parker find themselves trapped together on a strange island in a life and death situation, out of which come some of the most important revelations about their pasts.Read full review
This is the best T.V. Show I had ever seen, a great story and great actors. I will never get tired of this show. This show makes you think and can also relate to real life issues and drama. With so many twists and turns, you'll find the main character, Jarod, becoming anything or anyone to put bad people behind bars by making them feel the same fear they have inflicted on their victims. Jarod has been a Doctor, Teacher, Professor, Caost Gaurd, High Ranking Military personnel, and even a news reporter. I only wished that they could have done at least one more season, but they followed up with two movies, which I plan on owning soon. If you never seen this show, I highly recommend it, you will like it.
For fans, this is the most in depth Pretender Season of all. Jarod is clearly the focus using his abilities to help his "comrades" learn about their secrets and issues hidden from them. A much more satisfying view than Season 3; richer in context, plot development and story lines. The only low point is the ritual Cliffhanger Season Finale where Miss Parker and Jarods recently discovered Half-Brother is on a train headed for disaster. Without revealing the ending; we are all left adrift at the abrupt end. Since a Season 5 was expected, there are many clues and unanswered questions hanging in the air - WIll Miss Parker and Jarod finally blaze their barbed relationship? Will Cloe and Jarod steal away and finally establish his own family? Will Jarod use his incredible talents and bring the center down so it will not ever threaten him again? Will Sid finally steal away and join Jarod as a willing/full-time partner? What is the Catherine Parker Plan? How can Miss Parker develop her gift for herself, not the center? Is Lyle really as debased as we're led to believe? When will Mr Parker finally get caught short with no way to escape? We all long for closure and this season brings these questions and more right to the edge just under the waters surface tension. This is a fitting end to a series closed down 24 episodes too soon. If you are a Pretender fan, then join on the website and send in those emails to NBC so we can get a closure movie or quick three-parter to bring this fine ensomble to it's fitting end. A Must buy and popcorn view for all Pretender fans.Read full review
