The '24' thread for the new board...

[noisemachine]

The first 4 episodes blew me away...especially the 4th one...
Anyone else a fan?

[Rezzo]

been a great season so far

[adctvprsnlty]

On any other show, every major plot point so far would be a jump the shark moment. For some reason, on this show, they're all genius. Mastermind behind last season is actually Jack's brother? That's ridiculous on a soap opera, yet somehow, they make it plausible, and even believable.

Hell, if they told us the reason Jack never ate or used the bathroom was because he was a cyborg, I'm sure it would go over just fine.

[crazzz2007]

so far so good, except that was the least dramatic nuclear explosion ever.

[hawkingvsreeve]

Well it was a suitcase nuke, and not as powerful as a huge warhead. It flattened a square mile man, thats pretty big to me.

[crazzz2007]

i didn't mean the impact of the actual blast. i meant people's reaction to it.

[thinnerair]

people were just kinda running around and looking at this helicopter on the roof. people running around bleeding on the streets of LA and theyre STILL on their cell phones.

[noisemachine]

I can't wait to see Jack torture his brother tonight...

[thinnerair]

i heard there is a site that streams episodes of 24 now.
i might have to miss tonight's episode and im hoping i can find it online.

[adctvprsnlty]

Reason number #763 why Jack is so awesome:

When he calls in to CTU for pick-up, he tells them the street intersection he's at, and that he's back on duty. Not even a single mention of the flaming pile of helicopter behind him. Cause that's just completely normal in his mind, not even worth an afterthought.

[thinnerair]

Jack Bauer isn't there to clean up anyone's mess.

Nadia is making every episode of 24 worth waiting for this season ...



I guess her name is Marisol Nichols ... I'm thinking she's going to be a terrorist plant ... no sweat by me, what ever gets her into more episodes.

[adctvprsnlty]

She won't be a plant, she'll be the only one who knows how to arm the nukes, and so the terrorists will kidnap someone in her family to force her to help them, and she'll be torn by the irony of having to become exactly who her clearance was restricted for in the first place, but since she's using Milo's authorization, he'll get in trouble for it.

At least, that's my guess.

[pewter14]

the whole using Milo's login made me think immediately she's going to do something wrong ... whether by choice, or by force.

As long as she doesn't get a bullet in the head until season's end ... I'm happy.

valencia is not la

tonights episode was boring.

[pewter14]

tonights episode was boring.

agreed ... granted, tough to follow up a nuclear explosion with something that will keep you on the edge of your seat

[TJimmer]

Nadia was the daughter in "Vegas Vacation"

[noisemachine]

Does anyone else hope that Mandy shows up in the near future? I really miss her and she needs to make a comeback. Definitely the hottest villain ever on the show.

Would be cool...but I mean...wasn't she taken into custody? She seemed like a merc, that's all.

[noisemachine]

No, last time we saw her was at the end of Season 4 and she got a presidential pardon. So shes basically still out there doing whatever she wants. I think we'll see her at least once more before the series ends.

[hawkingvsreeve]

She was pretty hot.

[canexplain]

24 is nothing more then a republicans wet dream .... boring and a waste of time ... cr*****

[guns&tanks&bombs&planes]

Easy there, fella.

[adctvprsnlty]

Check out the Jack Bauer Kill Count website for a recap of every murder he's committed over the last six seasons, in still form and in glorious Quicktime. It's awesome.

Oh, and I'm a liberal.

[thinnerair]

im slowly losing interest in 24.

[adctvprsnlty]

So Graem, the mastermind behind last season, was in reality working for Jack's his dad, which means Daddy Bauer is an even bigger bad guy, two steps above the last President... so who does he work for? When do we finally get to meet the most all-powerful evil corporate bad guy in the universe, who controls like every nation and government?

Betcha Karen Hayes buys it on her flight back to LA.

[Good Days Last]

I'm reviving this thread because...

I just started watching this show. Straight from Season 1... and I can't stop watching.

No effing idea why.

[captncrzy]

I watch that show religiously; wish this last season had been better. I heard that the producers have been told to bring some originality back or "else".
