You're a Pretender *fan*atic when: you actually spend time research the meaning of a Pretender character's name. Right Em?
EX: Angelo means " Divine Messenger " and the name Sydney is of French descent...

Yeah, we spent a while with that one. You're a Pretender *fan*atic when: while watching "Win a Date with Tad Hamilton" with your floormates, you wish there was a Win a Date with Michael T. Weiss contest. (and if there was, you'd be willing to pay a hell of a lot more than $200 bucks for a ticket!) Emily

Jamie Denton would be pretty cool to go out with too . You're a Pretender *fan*atic when: you see props in other shows that look just like ones that where used in the Pretender and you go 'hey that was the same...' etc, etc. Notice in tP 2001 that the magnifying glass that Jarod uses is exactly the same as the one Parker uses? And that same magnifying glass was used in an episode of Criminal Intent (yes I admit it I was watching a Law and Order program!! be nice I watch the Pretender too remember, so I can't have all bad taste!).

I watch the father of the modern crime drama...Profiler I would watch Profiler if it was on just like I would watch the Pretender (obessively ) if it was on but alas I have to content myself with picking out the best of the crappy shows that actually get down under (I'm not including the ones here - except the comedies - coz... lol, most aren't even worth mentioning ).

I'm a CSI junkie - the regular one, not Miami. You're a Pretender *fan*atic when: you would like to strangle your father for not taping the Profiler/tP crossover "Pianissimo" on Thursday night when you gave DETAILED instructions on how to use the VCR! Ahhh! but... your mom kinda makes up for it by remembering to tape "To Serve and Protect" this morning, leaving your VHS collection 2 episodes shy of a complete set. (CU doesn't have cable , or I would tape the episodes myself)

You're a Pretender *fan*atic when: ANYTHING reminds you of tP...
I dont know how many other people drink Sobe fruit drinks...but they put little phrases under the caps. I just got one today that made me laugh...truly a tP reference.
" Dan, look at my thumb."

To sum it up (but by no means end the thread!): You're a Pretender *fan*atic when: your whole world and thoughts revolve around The Pretender!

You're a Pretender *fan*atic when....You're ready to contact the Dr. Phil show about your obsession!
(And Dr Phil's viewers would know about the Pretender!) ;D

You're a Pretender *fan*atic when:
You're actually excited to spend three hours as your professor's guinea pig for extra credit in your psychology class. You figure this will be an excellent opportunity to (a) practice your pretender skills (b) daydream that you're really at the Centre (c) research for your ongoing tP fan fic.
(Of course, filling out a 3 hour survey about my religious and social beliefs was not exactly what I had in mind when I volunteered.)

You're a Pretender *fan*atic when:
you think it's fate that you drew an 8 of diamonds when your professor used a deck of cards to divide the class into small groups.

You're a Pretender *fan*atic when: everytime you see the initals TP you immeaditely and without question assume it's refering to The Pretender... until you start to question why the license plate on a bus would have 'The Pretender' on it .

I was looking through my high school graduation scrapbook and thought of this one...
You're a Pretender *fan*atic when:
your senior quote was from tP -- "Life's a gift and nothing is worth missing out on it."
There was a newspaper clipping in the scrapbook because I graduated at the top of the class, so all of my personal info (including my senior quote) went to the city paper in a metropolitan of more than 6 million people! I'm sure that everyone who read the local page now knows how much of a Pretender *fan*atic I am!

You're a Pretender *fan*atic when: you've looked at the seat belts on airplanes and can't figure out where Jarod gets that thing he uses to pick the handcuff lock with in "The World's Changing" every topic you discuss in Psychology 111 reminds you of some aspect of tP (i.e. operant conditioning, infant impulses, moral reasoning) almost every page of your Philosophy notebook has doodles of the Centre (aka the Toronto water works) you spend your Friday night in a Pretender chat room for three hours. you know exactly what episode to watch when you're in a certain mood. For example: when I'm depressed it's either "Nip and Tuck," "Wake Up," "Til Death Do Us Part," or "Cold thingy." When I'm wondering why the hell I decided to go to college in a 'city' sixteen times smaller than the Twin Cities I watch "Crash" (talks about Townsend, NE - very close to Omaha). you're ecstatic to learn that Jeffery Donovan's new show is premiering while you're at home for spring break and have access to cable! (Touching Evil, premieres March 12th 9/8c on USA) Okay, all i can think of for now! catch you all later! Emily
