Wow. What an absolute pile of shit this show is. Wonder how many episodes they have bought. Probably won't make the run past whatever that number is.

Yeah, I'm not entirely sure how they're going to fill another 8 hours. Something crazy is going to happen. Not that something crazy happening is rare in 24.

Everyone at CTU is revealed to be a terrorist. Chloe is their mastermind. Only Jack stands in their way.

you know it's going to happen.
 
The second season is shaping up to be pretty good. I like the addition of the young latina. They could do away with the chick that is supposedly the silent investor though.
 
I love the show. At first I was kind of meh but after I kept watching I like it. I love shows that mix action, comedy and drama.
 
everything about the show is gratuitous. oiled up hottie sliding through the AC ducts? great.
 
Yea its not great but compared to whats on NBC its watchable

The idea is better than the show. I only watched a couple in the first season but the 2nd seems a little better.
 
The season finale was last night and I was hoping they'd
kill off Mrs. Pucci
but I was sorely mistaken. Instead, they went with the
relationship route
. The show has jumped the shark.

That was a wrap-up, not a jump. The show won't be renewed for next season, the ratings are not good enough and they wanted to give that one storyline a happy-ish ending. I'm actually going to miss it. It's cheesy and over the top, but it KNOWS it's cheesy and over the top, so it's done with tongue firmly in cheek. It's silly fun.

Come on, it's the wife from Rome. I like her.

Sucks for Chi McBride, think that's 2 or 3 shows in a row that have failed. Pushing Daisies, something between (?), and now this.

Oh wow? Really? That was a terrible series finale if true.

I've never watched Rome, but she comes off as annoying.
 
I haven't seen the finale yet.

I have seen all but the last 3 episodes and I really like the show.

All of you who say "OMG THIS IS TOTALLY NOT BELIEVABLE WTF GAY UNICORNS FUCKING LOL!!!!!" need to get a fucking life.

It's a FUCKING TV SHOW! What TV show is believable or is supposed to be???

Perhaps I spoke too hastily. I thought the fact that Fox moved a few episodes to Friday was proof that it was a fait accompli and the series would be gone. The finale numbers were not awful and the show does better than some other Fox shows. So while it's probably 80% likely to be canceled there's some hope and maybe the finale reflected that. They gave viewers a little warm fuzzy if that was really the end, but didn't write themselves into a corner on the chance it comes back.
 
I like it and I'll be disappointed if it doesn't get renewed although it wouldn't be the first time Fox canceled a show I liked. I thought it felt like Fox was actually giving the show a chance this season with the amount of money it appears they invested in it as well as they sponsors (although what show isn't sponsored by GM).
