Wanted
Nikita is still on the run after she was framed for the assassination of the President of the United States. Dale, a reporter from the news channel ENN, starts questioning what really happened that night. Nikita sees this as an opportunity to clear her name so she re-enters the country to talk to Dale but walks right into a trap set by Amanda. The team is alerted and Michael sets out to find Nikita before Amanda does. While Birkoff and Ryan help Michael from their new mobile office, a high-tech aircraft, Alex stakes out a human-trafficking ring and learns The Shop is involved. Things go south and Alex is surprised when Owen/Sam shows up at the scene.
In a world where identity is often taken for granted, "The Pretender" emerges as a thought-provoking series that challenges our perception of self. Created by Craig W. Van Sickle and Steven Long Mitchell, this American television gem aired its first season with a unique blend of action, drama, and science fiction that captivates audiences from start to finish. With four gripping seasons and a total of 88 episodes, "The Pretender" offers a deep dive into the life of Jarod, played masterfully by Michael T. Weiss.
Raised in a secret facility designed for conducting experiments on gifted children, Jarod possesses an extraordinary ability to excel in any profession he chooses. However, his journey takes a dramatic turn when he realizes that his captors are far from benevolent guardians—they are jailers withholding the truth about his real identity. Determined to uncover his past, Jarod escapes captivity and embarks on an exhilarating quest across America.
Each episode in Season 1 is packed with suspense as Jarod assumes various identities—from doctors to Coast Guard officers—to solve complex mysteries while helping those he encounters along the way. For instance, in Episode 1 titled "New York, New York," Jarod poses as a doctor investigating the cause behind a boy’s paralysis following surgery. This theme continues throughout the season with intriguing plots such as solving maritime deaths or unraveling conspiracies tied to defense contractors—all while outsmarting Miss Parker (Andrea Parker) and Sydney (Patrick Bauchau), who relentlessly pursue him.
