TOTP

You didn't even mention Tony's death.  I'm starting to think this is going to be the last season since several main characters are getting killed off.  But who knows.

I agree the last 2 episodes have been very very good.

[Reply #122 on:]

Show spoiler

New episode tonight... Jack's status is unknown.  Maybe he's dead!  I highly doubt it, but I think that might remain unknown for most of the episode.  Last week's episode saved a season that was beginning to slip away.

[Reply #123 on:]

the last episode was the best
i cant wait till tonight, theres supposed to be some kind of huge turn of events

[Reply #124 on:]

Show spoiler

Yeah that was a huge turn alright... the President is working with Harrison/terrorists?  I'll give the writers a chance to justify that in the next couple episodes, but I'm a little concerned.

[Reply #125 on:]

HOLY SHITTTTTT
IT WAS PRESIDENT LOGAN!

wow, what an insanly good episode
best of the season by far

[Reply #126 on:]

[Reply #127 on:]

Yeah, it's a great show, hopefully the greatness keeps up.

BTW. Great DP CrapBag.

[Reply #128 on:]

it was a bump

so anyway, tonights episode owned

[Reply #129 on:]

No, I meant Display Picture, the one of Russell Crow (or whatever his name is) from South Park.

I liked last nights episode too. It would have kept me on the edge of my seat, but I was sitting on the floor.

making movies, making music and fightin round the world.
its my favorite south park episode

audreys dead

[Reply #131 on:]

Show spoiler

She has to live long enough to threaten RoboCop with a gun next week.  Didn't I see that on the previews?  I hope so.  That'd be sweet.

Anyone else thing the Secretary of Defense is dead meat?  I thought he was going to be bumped off last night, but he seems to have survived for one more week.

And how did Chloe get that keycard?  I thought she was a computer person, not a super-ninja-pickpocket person.

HaHaHa, RoboCop. I forgot about that. But yeah, I saw that scene too. Hopefully she pulls the trigger before she dies. It wouldn't suprise me if they killed her off, they killed everyone else off. Maybe they're trying to make Jack into a Hermet next season. The entire next season will be him in a shack. Maybe hunting for food.

Yeah, I thought the VP was going to be in on it too, and take him out when he entered the room. And what happened to Aaron? Was someone on to him?

She's the whole package.

the actress that plays audrey is in a new series, so she is definitly dead
ya I think that her dad isn't gonna be around much either

[Reply #134 on:]

Hmmm, poor Jack.

Can't wait until next week's episode though. The pairing of Prison Break and 24 was an excellent decision.

[Reply #135 on:]

Ah ha!  Two predictiations came somewhat true and no tea leaves involved!

Show spoiler

So, who is the man in the thin glasses?  Early estimations tend to favor a big businessman: possibly from an oil or energy concern.  Other possibilities include a cult leader of some sort.  Whoever he is, someone needs to drop a helicopter on him.

Good to see Hayes finally allying herself with the forces of good.  Ever since Bill got ejected CTU has been working against Jack.  Now that they may be back in Bauer-business, they can really turn up the heat against...well, the rest of the executive branch.

Is the Secretary of Defense really dead?  I was thinking that since he had survived his confrontation with the President, he might be useful in turning the military against him.  If he's truly gone to his watery grave (I'd give him a 50/50 chance right now), it was somewhat expected but most complicating.

And any ideas who's holding the recording?  It seemed a little strange to introduce Desmond, let Jack double-cross him, and then just leave things up in the air between them.  Maybe he's a red herring.  Still, the previews indicate the next episode will be a slam-bang humdinger.  Hijacking a diplomatic plane...is there anything Jack can't do?

[Reply #136 on:]

I never really got into 24, but I've been watching Season 2 on my friends' DVDs.  It's good stuff, in general.  It's got its flaws that I won't go into here.  I will say that that Kiefer Sutherland is no Chuck Norris, though.

Also, why is every female who doesn't work for the government so goddamned stupid?  Especially Kim.  Presumably this changed later, but goddammit, grow some fucking not-getting-almost-molested/arrested/both sense.  Also, Marie.  She exemplifies everything I hate about spoiled rich Californian sluts.

Sorry to bring up old stuff.  I assume Kim has gotten smarter in the intervening seasons?

EDIT: really glad everybody ignored this.

Yeah, that was a nice change of pace, I thought the president was good and she was bad, now it's the otherway around. This is a great show

With shows like this you never know, I was sure Abruzzi was dead, I mean, he was laying on the floor with 2 gallons of blood coming out of his throat.

It would be a nice advertisement for seatbelts if Heller survived.

Jack isn't any ordinary cop. And Audrey could still die. It would be messed up if Audrey was killed off the same episode that her father killed himself to save her.

[Reply #140 on:]

Nah, if he survived and she died that would be messed up.

[Reply #141 on:]

Yeah, that too. It would be sad.

Is there going to be a 2 hour season finale or something?

[Reply #142 on:]

"The following two hours takes place between 6AM and 7AM.  It just does, okay?"

That being said, how's Jack going to get himself out of this one?

Show spoiler

Of course tonight we were as busy as fuck and were down to three dispatchers, so a lot of the dialog I missed due to muting of the television.  But it was still a hair-raiser.  You know a show is awesome when you find yourself trying to think like the protagonist and how to solve the problems the plot sets in your way.  Needless to say, my plan is ridiculously complicated and involves the bad guys and their unknowing henchmen falling for a few ruses.

Then again, I'm no Jack Bauer.

Anyway, was this episode entirely devoid of Audrey?  Did she die or something when I was on the radio?

Are there anymore clues as to who Dr. Romano is?  The one thing I don't like about the show is that the conversations are quiet and the action sequences are loud.  That makes it very hard to watch in dispatch.

And Chloe is so cool.  I didn't think she was any good at this cloak-and-dagger stuff, but she's really pulling it off.  And she certainly has a way with horny drunks.

I only ask because the commercial after last night's episode said "Only 4 hours left." And there are only 2 episodes left of Prison Break. So the last two episodes of 24 can be aired on the same night back-to-back.

[Reply #144 on:]

perhaps
if you watched the first 4 episodes, they had 2 episodes a night on sunday and monday. so it's possible

holy fuck did tonights episode kick ass

It was an awesome episode, I wonder if President Logan will do the right thing. I still hold out hope.

It seems like the President was shocked when the guy with glasses suggested shooting down the plane, so maybe.....ah who knows. We'll just have to wait until next week.

I know this sounds bad, but I really wanted Logan to kill himself. And that Miles guy is a douche. But hey! Aaron's back!! I hope he kills the President.

how dare they end a season like that
best episodes yet.
cant wait for, what is it, season 7?

[Reply #155 on:]

The season finale was good, nothing extremely shocking but good.

Show spoiler

I'm glad the first lady performed her duties for the country. If only Hillary would have been so patirotic, it would have prevented a lot of unnecessary problems. I was yelling at the tv, hoping that Jack would shoot the president, but that didn't have any effect. Robocop finally died, but I thought they should have had a gang of kids cut off his limbs at some dump site. Well, I can't wait for the next season and to see what the Chinese are going to do to Jack.

[Reply #156 on:]

It brings up an interesting question as to whether Jack will be on the run for the entirety of the next season or if the season will focus on CTU's efforts to reacquire him and if so, who's going after him?

Still, I'm thinking that Desmond will make another appearance sooner or later.  Perhaps he'll be reassigned to some sort of covert China-surveilliance and assist Jack or maybe even thwart him.

But yeah, good episode.  Did anyone not see that the phonecall was a trap?  Seriously, Jack outsmarts an evil president, an evil RoboCop, an evil Dr. Romano, and a slew of Russian terrorists only to fall for the old "you've got a phone call waiting in a tactically disadvantageous spot"-trick?  Please.

I thought after Jack killed Henderson, he was going to kill the kid. But I guess he didn't. I loved when the President was being led away at the end. That was a great moment.
