I was just browsing around Netflix, and noticed that The Pretender: The Complete First Season is now available on DVD! I loved this show! I typically don’t buy TV shows on DVD (I rent them), but there are one or two that I know I’ll watch over and over … and this is one of them. I just ordered it from Amazon. 
Now I just have to hope that the other seasons will get released, too, so that I can finally ditch all of the episodes on tape that I have!
Any other Pretender fans out there? 
I’m not (yet) – I haven’t seen any episodes – but I know I’ll watch it on DVD. A friend bought the first season and is working her way through it, and has forced me to pinky swear! that I’ll watch it when she’s done. I made her watch Arrested Development, and she made me watch the first season of MacGyver. Which, I guess, means that I have to force her to watch something now. Perhaps the first season of Greatest American Hero when I’m done with it?
They do seem to be releasing a lot of old TV shows on DVD, and I’m a total sucker for 'em. I can’t wait until August, which is purportedly when they are releasing Profit on DVD, which I think only ran four episodes before being cancelled. But I’ll buy the DVD!
The first season of Hogan’s Heroes is out now, too. I might just have to rent that.
If you’re feeling really mean-spirited, you can force her to watch Pink Lady and Jeff.
No way. She’d make me watch it with her. And, oh, does that show look awful.
Misnomer, I’ve never seen Hogan’s Heroes either. I’m beginning to suspect that there’s a lot more on TV than I ever knew about.
You really do “know nuhthink”!* :eek:
You must put aside everything else – even The Pretender! – and watch Hogan’s Heroes immediately!
*(“I know nuhthink” – imagine it said with a German accent – is a famous in-joke from Hogan’s Heroes … I wasn’t really insulting you. :))
Pretender came out ages ago!
I bought it the day it came out actually I love Jared.
It’s true! Although I had heard that saying before. So I’m not as ignorant as I think!
Now, must be off to find a copy of Hogan’s Heroes . . .
I think that shows that work on having some HUGE mystery- and then the show goes off the air, and they never reveal the truth- are crap. Pretender even had a “life after death” with a made-for-TV movie, and they still didn’t reveal much. :mad:
Same thing with John Doe.
I’m gonna be pissed if they do this with Lost. :mad:
