I'm not sure whether this is the name of the show or not. It's about this guy who escape from a facility and can't remember his past. So he travels around the country and try to find out. I think the last one I saw is called Gemini? His twin?

And what ever happened to the Pretender? Is it still on? If not, how did it end?

Oh yeah, and Profiler ... so sad that "Sam" left. The red head that replaced her just don't cut it. No chemistry will the rest of the cast what-so-ever!

I'm done! 8-)

Wasn't Nowhere Man the show on UPN (I think) about a photographer? He woke up one day with a strange photograph in his possesion (of 4 people being hanged), and everyone he knows and loves is suddenly out to get him.

Is that the show you're referring to? If so, it was incredible! Only one season, but very riveting! I wish some cable channel like F/X would replay it.

I remember this too--was it UPN? I just remember that my local station was showing it at an odd time... Starring Bruce Greenwood... That one season of eps was very, very good....

I too recall. Greenwood was good. I'm quite sure it was UPN. I guess it ran only that first season, because I never saw it after that.

That show was very good. I was surprised that it ended so suddenly. The last episode ended the season in a cliff hanger. I forgot what happened exactly (it's been so long) but I believe he caught one of the head guys responsible for his situation who died soon after he told "Sam" that his entire life as he knew it was fake and that he was actually a volunteer test subject that went out of control.

Man I wish they will show this again.

I only saw a few episodes, but I really liked it too.

Pretender was canceled last year, although its on in reruns on TNT. They also filmed a 2 hour movie that continued where the show left off (it ended on a cliffhanger). The movie, Pretender 2001, was on a few months ago. There's supposed to be a second one this fall or next spring.
