24 is back tonight at 7:00 CST. Anybody watch this?

I got into it at the start of last season. I don't really watch any TV except sports, but it hooked me. Tune in if you have nothing better to do... it roxxors.

So the nuke was a bluff. Why did Palmer have to be so smug about it ?

Because then they would have to reveal to us last week that it was a fake. Damn script.

To prove to himself and everyone else that he was capable of being POTUS.

Maybe that he felt powerful and that he can get away with it, w/o even having the nuke armed.

88TG88 · 04-09-2007, 10:19 PM

That fake ambush was pretty damn smart.

88TG88 · 04-09-2007, 10:58 PM

WOW who was it that said that Audrey was still alive. That was one random twist

I knew she wasn't dead but didn't know how they would bring her back.

I just don't like how they have ended the main threat with 7 episodes to go.

One thing I've noticed about this show - supporting CTU troops have pretty much the same life expectancy as Star Trek redshirts. Seems like they greased about 50 of them this season alone.

I mean seriously, how many friggin assault teams does CTU have?

Now we get Bauer vs. Doyle. Gee who wins between Jack and Mr. Silver Spoon.

kcxiv · 04-10-2007, 12:28 AM

Great episode tonight. The Doyle saying, "Damn Jack" like someone mentioned earlier in this thread, was just classic.

As usual I am in the minority, I didn't like Audrey last year and I am disappointed they brought her back this year.
Any Asian "heavy" is hilarious to listen to
"Jack, you come meet me hew, ow we wew kiw her.

silly

I fully expect the show to get worse before it gets better. I just got interested in 24 this year so I have no knowledge of Audrey, but it seems like the women in Jack's life really drag down the story line IMO. I started watching season 1 to catch up on the Bauer mythologhy. The writer obviously doesn't think much of women. In season 1 they are all either liars, traitors, sex-crazed floozys, stupid, or a combination of the above. In the latest show from season 1 that I watched, the mom - for no apparent reason - parks her car on the side of a cliff, tells her daughter to stay put and wanders aimlessly up the road looking for nothing in particular. The car just falls off the edge of the cliff and explodes into flames. My first reaction was to throw my hands in the air in joy and yell "Allright, at least one of the stupid broads is gone." Needless to say I realized when they didn't show a body right away that she probably survived. A couple of minutes later there she was dusting herself off so she could be incredibly stupid yet again.

No wonder Jack kills everything in sight. I would too if I had a family like that.

Yep this ain't over. There is something else coming. There are 7 hours left. They don't clean up a season over 7 hours. Nope, the Chinese are going to be enemy #1 and Dad's going to enter the show again and sacrifice himself to save Jack and or the country.
