    Season 2 ended with a big bang and cliffhanger. Even Jarod is hit hard by the events while a secret of the past is revealed and as always creates new questions. Season 3 is again a mor of the same approach without the overall story arc. As general set up: The series is about Jarod which has the mental capability to impersonate other peoples mindset to near perfection (=Pretender). ThisSeason 2 ended with a big bang and cliffhanger. Even Jarod is hit hard by the events while a secret of the past is revealed and as always creates new questions. Season 3 is again a mor of the same approach without the overall story arc. As general set up: The series is about Jarod which has the mental capability to impersonate other peoples mindset to near perfection (=Pretender). This make him the ultimate problem solver. He got abducted by an organization as a child which used him for their (often shady) gains and he escaped as a young adult. The series is about him searching for his family and using his ability to help other people while the organization tries to get him back. The series is a bit like The A-Team. Jarod solves the problem of the week with his abilities and continues. The overarching story arcs are the search for his family, the hunt for him and the many shady secrets of the organization. Also Jarod is quite unfamiliar with many things he did not experience so he is a bit unworldly (Sweet's, toys, comics etc.) but is now acclimated to most things. This season works really well and I think it is my favorite. Jarod takes some of his best roles and the final twist is remarkable. Also there is a crossover with “Profiler”. This episode starts the story and in the “Profiler episode “Grand Master” concludes the story. Overall I like the more of the same approach as we get quite a lot of interesting stories. The charming cast makes it a good show. Expand
