I haven't seen the show but from the 347 times I've seen the advertisements, I might just pass. I would watch that kind of show but damn, do they need ratings that bad?

It beats any reality show on television today and the news time they pull.

Who the hell said the winner of each week of Survivor is newsworthy?

no, they really dont. I hate how FOX goes overboard on the advertisements as well, but 24 is a worthy show.

Not good enough for an HD junkie. :thumb:

Guess I'll go with - watch HD Housewives, tape 24, TiVO [on my computer] L&O, and catch the replay of Carnivale [hopefully in HD] later in the week.

Whoa, I'll bet Eva Longaria and Nicollete Sheridan in HD is worth every penny??

That is the foundation of my lifeview. ;)

That, and the eternal hope that Teri Hatcher gets scripted for a rain scene in her t-shirt.

BTW - They're real, and they're OUTSTANDING!!! ROFL ROFL

the theme of the new show is how many points Indy will put up against the Donkeys in the 1st quarter...

Wow, they are starting off with a massacre bigger than last season.

[CanadaKC]

they thought the name "24" would be most appropriate....

I have a DVR hooked up to cable and can record 2 shows at the same time while watching a video or DVD.

For 24 fans heres a link to the new cast talking about the new season.

http://www.24inside.com/ does that work with one of those cable digital boxes/decoders (or whatever they're called) like comcast has?

would you connect the dvr before the cable box (decoder?) or after?

i'm thinking about asking for a dvr for my birthday, but i don't know diddly about them, really...

IT's a DVR from the cable co. (Road Runner). It runs the cable and records the shows 40 hours of space. The cable goes directly into it. I run cableling over to a reciever and run all the other stuff to the reciever.

[BigRedChief]

Awesome, I win.

Since I get the Pacific feed of HBO, Carnivale is on at 9pm PT... or 10 pm here.

woot.

Regular time will be Mondays at 8:00 central.

Looks like there is another 2 new epiodes of 24 on tomorrow night according to my guide.

[ragedogg69]

yep get 4 hours over with in these 2 nites so that its 20 weeks of UNINTERUPTED hour long episodes. That way FOX can have the season finale during may sweeps. Sounds pretty sweet to me.

Who else is hoping in the first 5 mins of the hour one Kim is hit by a train and dies. This alone would make this season my favorite.

kim... :p :p :p

[Deberg_1990]

Good Lord... there's another 2 hour ep of 24 tomorrow night.

yep, thats what you get when the season starts 2 months later than usual. FOX tries to cram 24 episodes into 5 months.

Its definitly works for me. Long breaks in the middle of the season are really irritiating for a show like 24.

[BigRedChief]

Kim is history. Shes not on the show this year.

For now...you know they will bring that little hottie back sometime this season though.

We need some major wardrobe malfunction from her. :thumb:

You see the girl next door? She was hot!

Is your Pacific feed HD, or does it matter to you. Because I can get the Pacific Feed at 10 here, but my only HD channel for HBO is HBO-E.

[Deberg_1990]

Yea I saw it. Didnt think mcuh of the movie, but it had some nice eye-candy.

Nope, it has been guaranteed that the lame plot lines like his ex-wife and daughter have been iced permanently.

Anyone else notice the computer hacker is the kid from the Harrison Ford movie, "Witness"?

Yup, speaking of eyes, that was what gave him away. Mr. Goldfish himself.

yea Lukas Haas....i noticed his name in the credits at the beginning.

the mean boss lady called Erin Driscoll is played by alberta watson.

Just started watching it and it seems that there is a definte drop in hotness of the chicks this season.

[kc-nd]

I heard that there is going to be a new show this fall (at least I hope so). It will be fairly offensive, as it has been the past two-to-three years, but most of the new actors will defensive. One of the lead actors cries at the end of the big show. And they (and we) all live happily ever after. I can hardly wait ....

i guess we'll see how many new actors there are in the defensive group... :doh!::doh!::doh!:

i'm not holding my breath, though... :shake: :shake: :shake:

[elvomito]

is elisha cuthbert still in this? i've been out ot touch for a while, but i'm sure she's still hot as hell

Nope, evidently they ran out of amnesia/blind/captured by survivalists/captured by terrorist/boiled by cannibals/tied on the railroad tracks/placed beneath the buzzsaw/survived the nuclear holocaust 24 hour scenarios to place her in.

surely i would remember someone eating kim... :p :p :p

[Miles]

Pretty damn solid start. It Looks like the new characters will be an improvement so far. But did they really have to involve another kidnapping?

That was my first thought - but then, at least it is the Sec of Def and not just a wife. Hopefully, they off the girlfriend to show they mean business and Jack actually gets pissed off before the last episode.

[KCWolfman]

I recognized him from Mars Attacks!, actually.

I was praying that semi would nail him. I've got a feeling he's going to irritate the shit out of me over the next few weeks.
I said to myself - "Damn, they are going to rip off Enemy of the State right away and have the kid hit by a semi.

[KCWolfman]

That crossed my mind as well, but I was willing to ignore it if it meant he died.

Something about just looking at that kid pisses me off.

Goofy looking f*cker.
He has always looked goofy. Even in Witness I was hoping they got to him and shot him.

I also have a bad feeling about Usama Jr's girfriend. She may have some Kim like qualities.

I said that to my wife - look Kim Jr.

[KCWolfman]

Heh. I suppose it's comforting to know that I'm not alone in wishing ill for the kid due solely to his odd appearance.

Then again... it's placing me in the company of Russ. So, it's not all that comforting.
Like my reputation could hurt yours.

[KCWolfman]

And, seriously, what's up w/ Usama Jr. having such a cute girlfriend? That's a f*cking crime in itself.
Girls dig the foreign accent. I tried a Laotian one, but it never worked.

[KCWolfman]

Evidently it overcomes a lot of deficiencies in the looks dept.
Even Andy Kaufmann got laid with it.

[Miles]

Either of you think that Jack's chick is almost a dead ringer for Heidi Fleiss?

You mean with blond hair, 20 more pounds, and the ability to talk without touching her nose constantly?

Its just here face I thought looks the same. That actress doesnt have the used up quality to here.

[go bo]

[KCWolfman]

LOL - Used up! Yeah, I do see the similarities.

Heidi evidently came to a local radio show last year (Big Boys Toys Show) and was nothing but a crack head running up a bill for the station to play from her hotel room.
