4.0 out of 5 stars A Pretty Good Show, January 13, 2007

By	Grayson - See all my reviews

If you haven't seen it, the premise is that Jarod is a genius who escapes from an evil corporation and uses his genius to help the downtrodden, find his family, and keep from getting caught. While the show only lasted 4 seasons, buying this set will not complete the series. There were two made-for-TV movies that came out and last word had them coming out on DVD in March (and some are still trying to get a third movie made). Anyway, this series, while not flawless, is a pretty solid show and certainly entertaining. However, at the time I'm writing this to buy all 4 seasons together ($95) is $15 more expensive than buying them individually at $20 each (totaling $80).

5.0 out of 5 stars Thank You amazon I Found It., November 5, 2008

By	A. little (australia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

One of the best shows ever made, so much better than some of the shows they make these days.Just one thing I had trouble with at first was the double sided disc. How do know which side to put in first. The coloured ring side goes up first, then you flip it over for side B.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Pretender seasons 1-4, May 14, 2007

By	R. Friesen (Calgary) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The Pretender is a blast from the past, a great buy in my opinion. So far I'm 1/2 way through season 3. Like Jarod when he escapes from the Centre the show follows a simple story formula that very pleasing to watch. Getting to see Jarod discover all the things in life that we take for granted is an up lifting experience. As the second season gets going strong and you learn more and more of all the characters pasts the stories get more complex and the writers throw you a few curve balls that are a pleasant surprise. All and all a great purchase
