Andrea Parker DVD Collection

I've started mine, you should start yours too! Even if she has smaller roles in many of these, you have to appreciate the calibre of shows that Andrea has appeared in. I'm impressed. Some of these are the longest-running shows on primetime TV. She knew how to pick a hit! At least it certainly seems that way...the Pretender is one such except of course, it was cancelled before its time, but that was just NBC being Nasty By Choice! lol On to the DVDs!

The Starring Roles

The Pretender Season 1 and Season 2 DVD
Andrea plays Miss Parker and Catherine Parker and her acting is superbly brilliant.

The Other Roles
Ed McBain's 87th Precinct: Ice (1996)
Andrea's role: Det. Eileen Burke, a tough, independent, risk-taker who has a taste for sting ops. She helps take down a serial rapist.



ER Season 1 and Season 2
Andrea guest stars as Linda Farrell in several episodes, mainly in S1, but worthy of mention is the Emmy-winning episode: Hell or High Water from Season 2.

Ellen Season 2 DVD (1994)
Andrea guest stars as Joanna in the premiere episode of Season 2: The Dentist, hailed as one of the funniest of the season set.

Body Shot (1994)
Another small role for Andrea in this one. DVD is currently unavailable except at a very high price!

The Naked Truth (1992)
Andrea has a small part in what has been described as an uproariously funny movie. Completists have to have it. At $3.29 you really can't go wrong!

Seinfeld Season 4 (1992)
Andrea plays a nurse in the Emmy-winning episode, The Contest, from Season 4. This is the season which brought Seinfeld it's first Emmy for best comedy series.
