24 Official Thread of the New Season

[Despair]

It was awesome. Jack was badass as always and the story was tense.

I will post in more details tomorrow, and I cant wait until tomorrow night to get more of it.

I just hope that season 3 stays as a bad memory.

I just hope that season 3 stays as a bad memory.

Err, compared to the other seasons, I guess. That season was better than 99.9% of TV nowadays.

Am I the only one that got goosebumps when Jack turned into Psycho Jack and flipped over the metal table? Then he proceeded to blow out the asshat's kneecaps and get the info in .3 seconds.

The lesson learned here is: only idiots question Jack Bauer.

And was I the only one disappointed to see Paige's cute asian girlfriend get snuffed with the quickness? Then again, this is 24: everyone gets fucking shot.

Ok, I have a bit more time to talk about 24 so here we go

Cool opening, with bomb act and stealing of something important, very Season 1 like, only with the train instead of plane.

Good to see Jack getting out of field, and trying to get his normal life back. Of course we know that it wont happen, but I was happy for him anyway. His new girlfriend is UGLY though. At least her bony/ nosy face is

OMG Chloe is back. I will look forward more of annonying quotes and actions from her. I hope there wont be no more babies.

Interesting news on that Jack got fired by new CTU rulling bitch. We will see how she stands against previous CTU asshole bosses aka Mason and Chappelle, who we came to love at the end. So far, she only seen making bad decisions, and trying to fuck up Jack.

I like they are trying something different with terrorrists now. It was cool to see terrorist family unit, although I am sure that the kid will turn to the side of the good at the end. So far bad guys have very proffessional setup. Kidnapping of very high political official and then setting up trial on the live internet is a cool idea, and I am sure there are more evil actions in plans behind the scenes, plus as it always been with 24, I am sure there will be a reveal of even more sinister plan in the second part of the season

Kiefer was awesome as allways. We do get some info on what Kim and Chase are doing, so I guess we wont be seeing their family this time. I wonder if Chase got his hand back. Also I hope they will say something bout Tony and Michelle.

So, no more calls to mr president, Jack Palmer is history, and I dont think Kieler, or whatever his name is, will be as supportive, but who knows. Since Jacks new boss is the buddy of the pres, maybe Jack will get some more slack to save his future daddy

Couple of parts that were a bit icky - hacker kid and terrorist kid romance. Hacker kid wasnt as bad, but still somewhat convoluted. I do feel sorry for the kid's friends and his mom. But this is how 24 is.

And with teenage romance, I can see that kid will become good, unless 24 will really surprise us, and him or more likely his evill mommy or daddy will whack her, when she comes for a visit.

Jack acting badass put a smile on my face. Taking out the guard (man, these guys always were weak, since almost every important player both good or evil in the history of 24 were kicking these guys asses with ease. Then solving interogation problem with his favorite way and getting the info.

Jack replacement sucked, except him actually owning Jack in the hand fight. But then he got his ass handed to him by cool evil mister assassin. That bad guy was very pro. Looking forward Jack taking him out.

Attack at Heller was nice as well, and so was a scene of decision if Jacks new girlfriend needed or not. Sure we know that she will live, but anyway.

Overal it were great 2 hours, and with 2 more hours tonight, I am excited. As I posted in the first post, these 2 hours already washed out some of bad taste that 2nd half of season 3 left in my mouth, and I hope it will be even better.

More impressions tomorrow

And was I the only one disappointed to see Paige's cute asian girlfriend get snuffed with the quickness? Then again, this is 24: everyone gets fucking shot.

Hmm, Didnt find Asian girl too cute, but terroris teenage girlfriend was easy on the eyes. Maybe she will turn into new Kim. All we need is to her to get into Kim's get up from Season 2

Nah, it's running every single week until the season ends.

As for this season--I love it, though I think CTU is made to seem too useless without Jack. They wouldn't be that stupid, would they?

Well, It was more of the way Driscoll handled things. Since she was incharge she was applying some of the force on what needs to be done. And Jack's replacement Ronnie, wasnt all that good in the field.

Rest of the CTU were function well, with Chloe trying to follow the lead, and being shotdown by her bitchy boss.

great show so far, just wish they hadnt put it on the same time as desperate housewives. the whole second hour we (the old battle axe and I) were flipping back and forth. cant wait for the continuation tonight. the only shoddy thing is that they shoulda killed jacks girl if they were real terrorist thugs at the beginning, but i guess they needed a catalyst for jack later in the season

[Cowutopia]

This show is completely unwatchable.
It wouldn't have been so bad if some of the women were actually attractive. The only one I'd do was that asian chick that showed up for a few minutes at that "hacker's" workplace and then got shot.

After hour 1 I was done. Reminds me why I don't watch television.

Well, She is a Secretary of Defense daughter, and she might still be usefull for them, if daddy wont co-operate, they can always kill her. But I agree, main reason for her living was her being Jacks girlfriend.

WTF??? Man, how, in the fuck can you call this unwatchable? Are you just watch movies for pretty women???

[Cowutopia]

No, I don't. But this show was so bad I was wishing for some eye candy at least.

[Despair]

If 24 (the one of the very few shows on TV that are good), is bad by your standards, you beyond help.

Nothing else to say.

[Rich]

Also I hope they will say something bout Tony and Michelle.

I'm fairly certain they return later in the season. Hell, they were even in the season 4 interviews.

[Despair]

Yeah, thats what I read as a spoiler posted on another board.

Great, I will be happy to see them again.
