I'm only watching now because I've already started the season and want to see how it ends. Just can't seem to stop watching a show mid season....other than CSI Miami.

Ok, let's get the Dana Triangle in perspective: Dana is working at CTU. Dana has a top-secret clearance. The name "Dana" is an alias. Director Hastings hasn't a clue about any of this. "What's-Her-Name" (aka Dana), has a bad-boy-felon boyfriend or "ex-whatever." Dana (aka "What's-Her-Name"), has a felony record,too. Dana's bad-boy-felon boyfriend has an even sleezier bad-boy-felon crony. Director Hastings still doesn't have a clue about any of this. Dana is the fiancee of Cole, a CTU officer, who is just as clueless as Director Hastings. Dana has not told Cole that she's an ex-con with ex-con friends. Dana frequently leaves her post to deal with her ex-con friends, even leaving the premises altogether. Director Hastings still doesn't have a clue about what's going on. He decides to hulk his body to the lounge for coffee. CTU has a Wal-Mart parking-lot atmosphere. Anyone can find CTU. Most bad-boys do. Director Hastings seems to be ok with CTU's "open-door" policy. He's thinking about hiring greeters for the front door. Bad-boy-felons find What's-Her-Name and convince her through blackmail to commit more felonies on their behalf. Dana complies with the bad boys and uses CTU's systems to commit more felonies. Bad boys seem to think they have a good thing going with Dana, and continue to blackmail her. Director Hastings is still wandering around CTU, clueless. Duh. What's-Her-Name (aka Dana), decides to "off-put" the problem and leave CTU (again) to "reason" with her ex-con-ex-bad-boy-boyfriend. Dana carries a "strong message" to thwart his blackmail. Cole consults with "Typically-Weird-CTU-Techie" to find out what the heck is going on with Dana. Techie shows Cole a little parking lot action between his ex-con fiancee and her ex-con friends. Director Hastings has not been told by anyone what's going on with Dana, Cole, Techie-Guy, Bad-Boy-Guys, Renee 'Psycho' Walker, Chloe, and/or Jack 'Bad-Guy-Torturer' Bauer. He's thinking that blue bibs for the new greeters would be a nice touch. Cole, the erstwhile CTU officer, leaves a high priority operation to investigate Dana's situation. Cole finds Dana on a deserted road somewhere in New York. Dana approached bad-boy felon friends with caution. Cole approaches with screeching breaks, dust, and headlights blazing. His training is superb. Bad boys see nothing. Good thing for Cole. Dana and Cole have it out within a few feet of the bad-boy-felon van. She admits she's not been completely honest with him. Her name isn't "Dana." It's Jennie So-And-So. Director Hastings is drinking coffee and is enjoying a donut. Maybe yellow smiley face stickers would be a nice touchy-feely welcome... Duh x2. Cole looks annoyed with Dana, but ever the kind gentleman, he confronts the bad boys on her behalf. Bad boys have a disagreement and eliminate each other with words and ... other methods. Cole eliminates one of them after Dana's bad-boy-boyfriend calls out a warning...(Which is more than Director Hastings has gotten since he's been employed with CTU.) Dana rushes to bad-boy-boyfriend and stays with him while he coughs his last. Cole looks confused...What the heck? Director Hastings walks around CTU wondering where half of his staff has gone. Duh x3. No one is returning to CTU because national security seems to be the last priority of anyone on the team. At CTU, the parking lot is still open for business, and Jack Bauer is in handcuffs. Nothing new there. Director Hastings seems to be ok with Jack in cuffs and Renee's mental health report (she's good to go!). He's also satisfied that CTU's security clearance process seems to be working well. So...Who is the enemy? Stay tuned....

After tonight's ep, my 14-year-old son said, "Why are we still watching this?"
I just shook my head and said, "Habit, I guess." |

Pretty much what I thought at that point as well.

Yeah...I'll be honest...I'm never as pessimistic as you guys in this thread especially about 24 because I think Jack Bauer is a great TV character...
But after tonight's episode... I was like... Wtf? Are you kidding me? I'm not even entertained anymore. Nothing. I mean... This hour went NOWHERE...nothing remotely exciting happened. I mean...what the **** is the point of Freddy Prinz and Dana Walsh? Christ. This is bad. Real bad. I don't know how they plan on saving this abortion. |

I can't wait to see how they explain away Cole and Dana being gone all that time.

I actually thought last week's episode was much worse. This episode wasn't bad apart from the ridiculous hyperbolic chamber with cell reception. There was some actual advancement of the plot.
