Very Suspenseful, Dramatic, Though Something's Missing

I Always Like first seasons from shows i love. Always hoping that in season 1, episode 1 there's a reference back like for instance in this show a reference to Jarod as a kid, etc.

There's alot off stuff in here to links back to his past & all, but the show hit's off when Jarod already has escaped, I wish that there was something prior then when he was on the run...

Also the endings, they don't add up, you always see Jarod becoming a new identity, but the next episode unfortunately doesn't start off with it, that's a bit down, coz when you see the episode on TV then your thinking that you missed a episode or something.

The Drama is WELL if not SUPERWELL added up. I'm GUESSING that Jarod is a new actor, but he learns EXTREMELY quick & quickly assumes the identity off the TV character Jarod, there were some moving moments, like in the end when he sees his mother that he had been searching for, for so long.

Show could have ended with this season, as a moviecollector you have to have this episode, it's GOOD.

How it's sold is another matter in my opinion, only 2 DVD cases with 4 disks on it & both sides contain data, Personally i don't like that.

This Is Definately one of the better Shows i have on DVD, I heard that show got cancelled, that was a bad decision in my opinion, they could have brought this show alot further.

But i guess it is understandable as at times you get the feeling that every episode is about the same, Jarod assumes new identity, The Center is After him, ALMOST catches him & Jarod flees again, assuming new identity.

At ending of this season he's assuming identity ( so it seems ) of a Astronaut, they probably won't show a episode with him as a Astronaut, but very original in my opinion, i wonder how the center could catch him then lol.

In Beginning the Legs Of Miss Parker are EXTREMELY hot too LOL
Later on, she gets a less Sexy character, and more bitch like, but DAMM those legs in first few episodes, ALMOST gave me a hard-on LOL

If you love the show on TV, then DEFINATELY buy this, you won't be sorry!
