24

[The Unseen]

Did the old thread get pruned or something?

I officially hate alot of people and things after this episode.

[Xiomera]

Terrible episode. Jack was in about 10 minutes of the entire thing.

And this stupid prison camp storyline has got to be one of the worst ever on the show.

[TCU]

24 is a show for Space People*, im sorry but the acting is terrible and the same thing happens every freakin season.

Worst I've seen. It was clear he would die. Any episode with little Jack is not a good episode.

[SpitKing]

I agree. I used to really like this show but this season has been absolutely terrible. At least LOST will be back soon.

[Smokey Joe]

This was just a kill-time episode. Nothing really big happened. The only good scenes were the ones with Jack, and there was a combined 10 minutes maybe. I don't see how a show can have that little air-time for it's main character. Hopefully next week will be full of Jack Bauer.

With that being said, I am looking forward to next week. Bauer needs to escape, then they show him about to horribly torture his brother. Plus, it looks like the VP and *** ass consultant who got Karen fired want to take over the government. Looks like that organization is still in this season.

Hopefully this was just one bad episode.

IMO, this was a set up episode...it will set up later episodes...

Agreed. 24 uses these periodically, it just blows when you have 2 in a row (this one and last week).

[BuckNaked]

Worst season ever, and this is my favorite drama.

[Staubach12]

The number google (yes it actually exists):

10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 ,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,

[49ersfan_87]

It was a weak episode. I liked the prison camp storyline, but there needs to be more jack.

Also, quick Q. I was on the phone quickly, what happened was the informant got the cell phone. They were looking at a website, and all of a sudden they had to get the guy out quickly, and they were rushing to get him out. Why were they rushing? What did they discover? Happened around the 11:45 mark.

They weren't terrorist, but just people who supported terrorism on the united states.

[WildDude]

i dont think its that bad but there are certain tweaks that need to be worked on

i missed tonights episode.... i have failed you jack bauer, i'll go kill myself.

dbl agreed. Here's to next week...

[Canadian_kid16]

The previews for next week look really good...i hate Graem Bauer SO much though

[steelersfan43]

Yea how did "nothing happen"? Jack and his faja got kidnaped by graem :shock:

I thought it was ight

[NIN1984]

not a great episode last night but the ending was great

[portermvp84]

Monday's episode wasn't bad, but the week before sucked.

[sweetness34]

Yea it wasn't too great but next weeks is gonna be awesome. Ha, he's gonna torcher the **** out of his brother. :D

Bad ass Jack will be back next week. And I bet there's a big twist next week as well.

[portermvp84]

Was his brother in last season at the end?

[Space Ghost]

Was his brother in last season at the end?

His brother got him sent over to China and organized all the attacks. So, yes.

[SeanTaylorRIP]

I remember before the season when they had the season preview I coulda sworn seeing Jack kissing his brothers wife so that will be interesting.

[Space Ghost]

I remember before the season when they had the season preview I coulda sworn seeing Jack kissing his brothers wife so that will be interesting.

It is his ex-wife or intimate life partner, one or the other, I forget... But yeah... it isn't like they are having an affair.

[Canadian_kid16]

not really, love stories (if it will be that) ruin shows like this IMO...

[SeanTaylorRIP]

Just think it's kinda funny how he was crazy in love for Audrey and all of a sudden she's gone, but it's good cause that was one scary looking lady.

[Philliez01]

:lol: That is a good point. I didn't really like Audrey, she made Jack like human which is a total lie but she didn't contribute anything to the show since her ex-husband in Day Four.

[SeanTaylorRIP]

Man Jack torturing Paul Raines with that electrical stuff in that apartment was some of the best 24 ever, gosh I loved it,Jack after spending time in China this season has gotten a little soft with his torture techniques but I know he'll pull threw, also being 24 my prediction is that Jack's dad is still heading this and he is just along acting as a prisoner.

[Space Ghost]

Anyone else realize how damn short Jack's brother is, and then notice that their dad is about 4-5 inches taller than both of them. Genetics are f**ked up in the Bauer family, that or their mom is a dwarf.

[Shiver]

They all have the Bauer nose though.

Yeah Jack's also got a full head of hair, and the little brother is going bald.

[The Unseen]

So far so good...

[Philliez01]

So far so good...

Not great but it's got some of the old 24 flair.

[josh07039]

How badass is torturing your own brother?

[josh07039]

holy ****
i knew the dad was evil, but damn

[The Unseen]

omg omg omg omg omg omg

[josh07039]

did it say 2 new hours next week?

[Xiomera]

I knew right when they McCarthy said he found someone to program the triggers that it was gonna be Morris. 24 has gotten too predictable.

[The Unseen]

Missed it...

Maybe you've gotten smarter, because I didn't see that coming at all.

[Zim3031]

I hope that 2 hour episode doesn't cut into prisonbreak.

[The Unseen]

It is...at the end of today's episode, they said "In two weeks..."

[Zim3031]

:cry: why? How much 24 can one person watch in one night?

It became even more apparent when he got that memo about his brother. Same exact thing happened to Adam, another CTU guy, in season 3, when his sister got sick and died. 24 isn't seriously gonna use the same exact plotline again.

[Smokey Joe]

I guess I am in the same boat as Xio. I knew from the beginning of the episode when Phil killed the one guard the he was evil. Also, it was clear that someone from CTU was the guy who could put the trigger together, but it wasn't until we found out that his brother was supposidly transfered to a hospitle that it was Morris. Maybe it is me watching 24 for 6 years now that I know whats comming. But I still love 24 and it is still my favorite TV show.

I also think the VP and co are part of "the Company" as well. Plus, I wonder what tatic Fayed is going to use to get Morris to program the trigger. I have no idea what he could do since no matter what Morris will die and if he does program the triggers, he will just take millions of people with him.

Last season they tried to make the VP seem evil as well, so it could be nothing. I would like to point out that Powers Boothe is a Texas State alumni though, so anything is possible! :D

I don't recall that happening. And I am almost one with rewatching day 3 of 24.

I wish I had the name "Powers Boothe." That'd be badass.

[energizerbunny]

wow.... chloe basically just killed Morris...... she is sooo stupid

[Smokey Joe]

Morris is like a straighter, but gayer version of Edgar. And Edgar was pretty ***.

and if the g word turns to cool, I really meant g.ay.

[jetsfan3]

Chloe > Vanderjagt when it comes to choking

[jetsfan3]

Nadia will turn out a terrorist. Mark it down. Remember when (forgetting his name right now, Chloe's X boyfrined) let Nadia into the server without racial profiling. It's gonna come back to haunt him. She will be a terrorist. THere is always someone bad in CTU, and why else would they show that seen?

Because Milo and Nadia will bone later, and it will be hot.

There is no way that happens. The show is already under fire for it's portrayal of Muslims; they need a few token 'good' Muslims to make up for the plethora of evil terrorists. That scene was there to show the 'wrong' in discriminating against loyal citizens, that happen to have a certain background.

Overall tonight was a very good episode. Much better than the previous two. I cannot wait to see how they develop the James Cromwell character.

[SeanTaylorRIP]

2 hours next week, does that mean there will be a week off after that or something?

[Xiomera]

2 hours next week, does that mean there will be a week off after that or something?

Nope

[The Unseen]

Bump for a little mid-way excitement...

[throwback54milkman]

2 hours next week, does that mean there will be a week off after that or something?

Nope

never, like 20 straight weeks in a row

[The Unseen]

So far...so good.

[josh07039]

Morris is a ******* idiot.

[josh07039]

best line,
Chloe-"Glad Fayed didn't kill you."
Jack-"Me too."

[miamichamp_305]

Jack's father is an asshole, how can you live with a guy like that?

[Philliez01]

So far...so good.

First hour was good, then the second one started out okay until Assad's minor role, then it intensified. I was hoping to see Jack jump out of a helicopter.

[The Unseen]

I'm glad they're showing this episode tonight, because it's obviously a "setup" episode.

Philip Bauer is a bastard.

[miamichamp_305]

Holy ****! As much as I loved 24 before I love it even more now.

The only thing I don't get is why Jack Bauer's hand gets all popped up after explosions, it was like that after the nuke exploded.

[The Unseen]

Nice wrap-up...

And nice preview, too.

[Philliez01]

The previews look badass.

"Who WAS IT!?!?!!?!?"

"your father"

Dramatic silence and the music.

[Smokey Joe]

Can someone help me out? I missed about 20 minutes of the first episode tonight. From about the part where Jack and the team sets up a perimeter outside the apartment building was and until Jack finds the nuke. Can someone fill me in on what happened between then, how did they get Morris to program the code?

Oh, and by the way, Morris is now my least favorite character. And that Myralin chick is stupid as hell. You have the almighty Jack Bauer with you. Why wouldn't you just tell him? You should know that your son would have a better chance of living with that tactical assistance of CTU and Bauer.

[Philliez01]

I found this pretty funny, on the previews for my local news (Philadelphia); they said, "You think JOE Bauer is tough? Wait, till you see these tough guys". They show the FBI.

Then there is Breaking News, there was a shooting at a Naval yard and there was a press conference.

Someone asks:

"What info do you have on the shooter?"

"I think he APPEARED to be African-American, and he shot two Caucasians and an African-America"

Worst. Press. Conference. Ever

BTW, I have no idea why I felt the need to say this. But the Joe Bauer part pissed me off.

They get some city alarm system to set off the fire alarms. The clearings allow their heat sensors to identify where the terrorists are, since they obviously wouldn't leave.

In the building, they are torturing Morris. They beat him, drive a screwdriver into his arm, that junk. The blonde McCarthy girl wants to help out by saying that it's not longer about the money. As soon as Fayed hears that, he shoots her dead.

After almost being screwdriven again, Morris caves. He sets up the nuke, and I *think* around that time the alarm goes off. Can't remember. Once he has the code set up, Fayed tells a cronie to kill him. Just before he can, the CTU unit and Jack blows in and kills all the cronies (except Fayed, as he had escaped).

Not sure how much of that you needed, but...

[Shiver]

This two hour night was da bomb.

[BuckNaked]

Tonight was off da heezy indeed.

[throwback54milkman]

do you think Palmer is going to be killed, and how is CTU gonna be involved in this one??

[Jughead10]

Jack's newphew being his son has to be one of the worst set up "suprises" in 24 history when it comes out. It is so blatantly obvious they are setting that up.
