Through the centuries, seekers of destiny have come to the isle seeking the scrolls and their mystic power. Many searches have ventured into the woods, never to return at all. It is said that the fate of the one who dares defile the scrolls will be filled with eternal damnation.

I randomly remembered one of my favorite shows from when I was a kid: The Pretender (1996). And, I gotta say, more shows should just open their pilots like this one did: summarize the entire plot of the show in a two second exposition by a disembodied voice going “there’s people who can perfectly pretend to be literally anyone, and one such person escaped a facility that experiments on them.”

Bing, Bang, Boom, you can just cut right to the hunt for the escapee in basically the middle of the story while extrapolating the plot for the audience from there as the characters in-universe discover it.

Jarod& Miss Parker (The Pretender) Another Love 

This is my favorite edit.

[acrobat76]

Never, never forget Jarod and Michael T. Weiss, my very first crush! ❤️

The Pretender (1996-2000)

Today a friend told me about a show she used to be obsessed with. I nearly screamed.

NO ONE understands my obsession with The Pretender…and now I found someone to share in my unhealthy obsession. Yes!!

Even with the outdated tech & the cheesiness I love it. Every once in a while (usually when I’m sick or in a bad mood) I have to watch an episode or read a Pretender fanfic. It always makes me feel better. Maybe it’s because of Jarod being a justice warrior or asskicker…

Gah! I’ll never stop loving the show and Jarod.

If you’ve never seen it go watch it. It’s charming and addictive. And has lots of wtf moments too. Classic ❤️

Merry Christmas to all. And to all a good night.
