24 - Season I

I've seen almost every show. If you miss one, you can watch it on FX at 10:00 on Thursdays. Has anyone noticed how the women on the show can't keep their shit together?

 

Yeah, I'm really getting annoyed with the women on this show. I mean, Palmer's wife screws him over (but, politicians don't leave their wives in the middle of a good campaign-- so don't look for it). Teri has amnesia-- but go back a couple of shows and what the hell was she doing driving out to the back roads when every person knows that you stay IN TOWN if you don't want shit to happen. And now Kim has just pissed me off from the start. Yeah, 16 year olds are stupid-- but, really, give up on your kidnapper. Rick is NOT going to take you to the prom. You are one of the most developed girls in your class and you are dumb-- guys would probably line up for you. Oh, and let's not forget the dumb girl who stabbed their link to the rest of the operation!! I can understand her having an affair and then getting pissed. I don't get why she stabbed him. Nina seemed okay, but we learn this week that she's just a fuck freak who is going through the department.

So, while I am addicted to this show and I'm in it until the end-- I often wonder what the writers have against women! Honestly, we are not all as stupid as the ones on this show! I need to read the credits to see if they even have any women writing for the show because they have us behaving so irrationally that it must be men writing it!!!

 

so, it's obvious that there's another dirty agent inside ctu, right?

well, who is it?

nena? tony? mason? the black lady who was trying to take jack's job?

has anyone thought about the writing involved here (outside of the women being whacked out and acting overly irrational -- except super-cool nena)? what i'm thinking of is way back in the first episode how it started out with jack and kim playing chess -- well, that's what the show seems to have evolved into, a long chess match.

i expected a seat-of-your-pants ride with each episode, but it's turned into an evolving game where pieces are knocked off, one at a time (and sometimes, it seems, just for the heck of it). who is next?

i can excuse some plot flaws along the way, it is tv afterall (where are you twin peaks?) but they had better clean it up or i'll have to lower my expectations.

i can't wait for when dennis hopper (CHAMPION!) and lou diamond phillips (where has HE been?) join the cast for the final five episodes. sure to be lots more twists upcoming.

oh, so who is dirty?



news story: looks like 24 has a 75% chance of returning next season

 

I'm still trying to figure out what happened to the original data disk. Jack switched them, then...what?

 

I think the new CTU bureau chief is a little shady-- he'd be my guess for the rat.

What are they coming back next year for? I think this is a one-season thing. I mean, this is "the longest day of my life" for Jack. How many bad days can the guy have? Unless-- maybe he could quit, sign up for a chat room, and watch random girls all day in the hope that they'll get naked. OR, he could work for a Waffle House 24-hour shift and show all the freaks. That might be fun. But, I don't think anyone could handle another day like this. I don't even think I'd watch another day like this one!

 

The CTU chief is suspect, and what about the CTU snipper from last nights episode? He seems to have it in for Jack?
I have a feeling that this character was added for a plot twist. He and Jack will talk and he'll get with the team and help out OR he'll try to take a crack at Jack like he appeared to be considering last night?

 

Oooo, good point!!! My guess is that the CTU chief is working with the sniper and chief will be PISSED that the dude blew the chance yesterday just by being a braggart!!! Good one!

 

After seeing tonight's episode, it seems likely that the mole in CTU is Tony, except for the fact that he killed the bad guys at the Bauer home. If it's not him, it's Chappelle.

Ah, hell. I don't know who it is anymore than I did 3 episodes ago.

 

nope. and kim getting snatched again was too predictable. it was so happy there right at the end.

 

Why did "Diamond Lou" sign up for a bit part as a "pussy" agent that just gets a bullet after five minutes of face time? ( I guess that stoopid "wolf" show he did last year really put his career in a tail spin )

Why did Jack give up his gun last night "knowing" that he was giving up Drazen and that they would kill the other dude anyway?

I am really getting tired of the "whiny wife" and the whole story line with the Senator is getting old too. It seems like they didn't know where to take this thing. Unless somebody on his team is hooked up with the killers.

The mole in CTU has to be Nina. They keep trying to push it towards Tony or Chapelle - too obvious. In the end it is going to be Nina that breaks bad and turns out to be EVIL - the show is going to need some serious plot turns in the last few episodes.
