The show is so damned predictable!

They've gone so far as to take the Darth Vader syndrome!

The White House, without fail, always has at least one traitor in its inner circle within reach of the President.

And most Americans are wussies!

The show is a complete and utter joke!

Season 2 wasn't bad on DVD since I could fast-forward through Kim whining, crying and being menaced by cougars.

It's definitely a show that could be edited down to 1/4 its broadcast length though.

Even death can't stop Jack Bauer :thumbsup:

You are incorrect. Jack Bauer's badassery makes up for any lacking plot.

I've only seen seasons 1, 3, and 4. 1 and 4 were great, but 3 was watered down with too much Kim whining, too many "OMG, there's an even BADDER bad guy!" moments, and a biological attack scene that managed to actually be boring. Seriously... they had people dying left and right, people bleeding out of every last orifice, and it was still boring. It's definitely a show to watch on DVD to fast forward all of the filler.

The thing that pisses me off is that they let Jack's Dad:

1. Alone with his brother - DEAD
2. Alone with this brothers items - ERASE
3. WALK FREELY in CTU??? WTF are they thinking????

I've missed the last two shows because my stuff is still in transit and I have no TV. Guess I'll have to buy the DVD set... Sigh.

Never watched it, but my roommate used to watch it all the time. Seemed boring.

The problem with 24 is that they can't kill off the one guy who is most likely to die in 90% of all the shows scenarios. Because of this, it is a constant suspension of disbelief. They needed to kill off Jack Bauer a long time ago if they wanted the show to be any sort of serious. They could have made the show follow different agents through their stories instead of just 1 super invincible dude.

It's a show on FOX about Terrorism... Oh ya and its got a crappy plot line. Alias was enough, 24 is just too ridiculous.

You all are a bunch of punks. 24 is entertaining and the fact that they are never shy about killing off a "cool" character keeps the plot lively.

Go back to your lame D&D game.
