This review is from: The Pretender Season 1 (Amazon Instant Video)
I heard about The Pretender and maybe a few previews, but not being a TV watcher, I never saw a full episode. I discovered it on Hulu to see what the hubbub was about and found that they provided the pilot on Hulu Plus. Not wanting to pay for it, I found it on Amazon for only a couple of bucks. Finding this pilot ended up being a real treat and I enjoyed it. Great concept and am very interested in watching all of the episodes in the future.

I'm so glad Unbox has this series available. It was recommended to me by some of my friends, so when I saw it on Unbox, I bought the pilot and the first episode. I was very impressed with them.
