Yes, it is on Hulu.com and the problem is in a certain year (I forgot which), the captions get weird.

I have the whole thing on DVD too.

Do you have the movies as well?

Yes I did have the movie. Brought them on Ebay.

Here's the plot in case anyone asks.

The Pretender is an American television series that aired on NBC from 1996 to 2000. The series starred Micheal T. Weiss as Jarod, a genius and former child prodigy with "the ability to become anyone he wants to be," i.e., to flawlessly impersonate anyone in virtually any line of work.Partick Bauchau and Andrea Parker co-starred as Sydney, Jarod's childhood friend and mentor, and Miss Parker, an operative for the mysterious organization (called "the Centre") that took Jarod from his parents as a child and forced him to unwittingly use his talents for evil. Jarod escapes in the first episode and begins traveling around the country, searching for clues to his true identity and posing as doctors, police officers, attorneys, and various other figures in order to help those in trouble.

It was quite sad to see the series end since the story wasn't over. There is still some missing puzzles yet to be solved. Sadly the show was canceled due to unknown reasons. Micheal T Weiss as Jarod is one great actor and performer.

Yeah. The writer keeps hinting, but so far... he's talking the talk and we have yet to see anything.

The series was canceled due to financial reasons.

They did 2 movies to fill in a lot of the unanswered questions from the series. However, not all of those questions were answered.

The 2 movies were... The Pretender 2001 and The Pretender: Island of the Haunted.
