What I love about Jack Bauer is that 24 hours can pass and he doesn't ever need to eat, drink, sleep, or go to the bathroom.

 

This is what his sixth day in a row like that? Those mystical Satirs have nothing on him!

[Chisoxfn]

Jack is awesome. I may wait a couple weeks though so I build up a collection in my DVR so I can run through them relatively quickly.

LMAO. Can you imagine if they had an episode with Jack in the bathroom for like 20 minutes.

[Jimbo's Drinker]

[maggsmaggs]

Love 24, so happy that 24 and Prison Break will be on back to back on Mondays. What a great night of TV.

well said, love that night of TV

Don't we all...

[KipWellsFan]

I guess this is sort of a spoiler but my sister said that Wayne Palmer is the president now. I can't quite remember the situation from a previous season but didn't he almost murder someone? The show's a great waste of time but it's ridiculously far-fetched.

He was in the same room when Sherri Palmer was killed by Allan Milliken's wife, before Mrs. Milliken shot herself. He was also along with Jack when they went to a bank in season 5 to retreive the recording of Pres. Bush Logan, which led to a firefight that killed the manager at the bank. But personally, he hasn't actually harmed anyone.

[Rex Kickass]

Four times an hour????

 

Maybe next season should be 24 "At the Urologist."

[RibbieRubarb]

Doesn't mean urine 4 times...

 

He could eat a lot of Granola bars

[Rex Kickass]

Or drinks a lot of coffee.

[bjm676]

Jack also has the best cell phone service. He can go through tunnels, on airplanes, underground, etc. and still have great communication with Chloe.

[retro1983hat]

I thought last night was awesome as usual. It was a little slow starting, but one thing I have noticed about 24: It is the fastest hour, or in last night's case, two hours on TV. I look up and the show is over.

 

Thoughts?

Also, anyone have an early opinion on who the backstabbing mole will be this year?

The new cute manager at CTU is my guess. Nadia i think is her name

[Steve9347]

Last night's first two episodes were great, looking forward to tonight!

[maggsmaggs]

I think Chloe's husband is the guy we all think is bad, but then turns up good this year. I agree with Nadia, she looks like a traitor. And Palmer's aid, dont know his name, but the small guy seems like he has some objectives of his own. Cant wait till tonight.

The technology is cool from the show, however not even close to reality. You have to take it with a grain of salt when you see some of it.

 

I love the realtime data uploads and how quick it is. Its faster than the speed of light.

 

Last nights little thing where the presidents sister decided to "shred" the server. 30 seconds and the data is gone, yeah right. You cant even delete data at that rate even with the fastest drives on earth, more or less send random data to fill every sector on a hard drive(which is what shredding is).

 

I love how they crack military level encryption that the NSA cant either in a matter of minutes. Chloe just clicks a few keystrokes and poof the cipher is gone.

 

I love the show, and wish some of the technology that was in it was reality. My only question is how many times will Cisco get plugged in this season. They obviously pay a lot of bank to get that privilege. I almost fell off my chair last year when Chloe actually used the phrase "dont worry the Cisco Self Defending network will take care of it". Nice product placement.

AWESOME

[Controlled Chaos]

Awesome and just an FYI to some of you. The premier is being released on dvd on Tuesday. I was able to get it over the weekend and watched the whole thing last night. It's great. Some Big things happen in tonights episode.

 

Marisol Nichols....

My hottie. I keep following her from show to show...and now she is on a show I actually like.

 

She's from Naperville.

[retro1983hat]

SPOILER alert!!!!!!

 

 

Damn it! I loved Curtis. Boy, when you work on this show, you must be afraid reading your script knowing you're probably going to get whacked.

[Balta1701]

Continuing spoiler alert...

 

I get to congratulate a friend of mine who goes to school in Valencia on having been killed on 24 last night.

[Controlled Chaos]

I'm curious to know what price the government had to pay to get Jack back. If it was just money, I don't think it would have taken a terroroist bombing the hell out of the US to get him back. I'm guessing it's something bigger and maybe it will play a part later on in the show.
