-When a convicted terrorist was sentenced to face Jack Bauer, he appealed to have the sentence reduced to death.

-Jack Bauer never retreats, he just attacks in the opposite direction.

-When Jack Bauer ran out of ammo, he caught 3 bullets in his chest and used them to reload.

-The city of Los Angeles once named a street after Jack Bauer in gratitude for his saving the city several times. They had to rename it after people kept dying when they tried to cross the street. No one crosses Jack Bauer and lives.

-If everyone on "24" followed Jack Bauer's instructions, it would be called "12". (lol so true)

-When you walk into a bar and Jack Bauer's your wingman, you're not probably gonna get laid. You WILL get laid.

-Jack Bauer once visited the Virgin Islands. They are now The Islands.

-Jack Bauer's calender goes from March 31st to April 2nd, no one fools Jack Bauer.

-Jack Bauer doesn't have a firewall on his PC. He has a Bauerwall. It's basically just a JPEG of Jack Bauer. No virus has ever attacked Jack Bauer's PC. Ever.

clappyface

GRAHAM!!!

omgomg that was a big reveal lol

So I've finally finished season 5 of 24, just need to watch the first 5 eps of season 6 I taped to catch up completely.

All I can say, as a fan of the TRUE man of action on 24, is
[spoiler]Why God, oh why, did they have to kill Tony Almeida? It just seemed so unnecessary, and so gratuitously heartbreaking, I didn't want to watch anymore after that, and it makes me not want to even watch season 6. I mean the writers took the best character in one hand, and the availability of one shoocking moment in the other, and weighed one single moment to be more important than anything else they could think of for TONY ALMEIDA MAN OF ACTION. Fuckin shit. Really at this point I won't care if they kill Jack, but holy shit if they ever kill Curtis I'm out.[/spoiler]

!!!

Deadlegend:

[spoiler]Curtis was killed last episode. Seriously. [/spoiler]

I can't read it til I watch the 5 eps of season 6 I taped

Fine. Curtis is killed by Jack. Now you don't have to watch the episodes.

lol Ponuh is so damn mean. Good job.

that's just wrong. Jack Bauer would kick your ass for that ponuh.

he'd probably shoot me in the neck

he saves that for respected colleagues.

he might bite your neck.

K I am all caught up now.
1: Holy shit graham (omg). My brother was sitting in the room doing a crossword and I stopped the tape there to explain to him exactly who that guy is. omg

2: Curtis Manning is dead. The only way to make up for this is to

a) have hamri asswad end up being a bad guy and have jack tear his motherfuckin face off

b) have Chase Edmunds make a triumphant return to field ops since ultracool chase (cauterized a point blank gunshot wound to the hand with a red hot firepoker, stabbed a fat terrorist to death with his own knife, had jack chop his arm off, banged kim bauer) was replaced by ultracool Curtis (dude's been shot like 10 times and just gets up and brushes himself off [ALMOST] every time).

I'm still debating whether Manning's death is completely necessary. I'm pissed off as I said earlier the writers(producers, whoever) seem to think that killing a good character for one holy shit moment is strong enough to cancel out any future holy shit moments they could make. Also pissed they overshadowed it minutes later with the episode's real holy shit moment. Not only that but how many times has there been a standoff like that that ended with 0 people dead in the history of 24? Many. Fuckit.

I say so far the best season is #2 and I hope this season eventually traces back to it. With graham (omgholyshit) we have a connection to seas5 and season 5 had similarities to season 2 with the orchestrated attacks by oil bosses. So who knows.

I await the return of the black haired assassin (Mandy). May as well throw her into the mix since this seems to aim to be the end-all-be-all holy shit season.

So far: As long as the Bauer family shit isn't retarded, this could be a great season. However I notice as the seasons go on they seem to work less on suspense(still suspenseful as hell) and more on gunfights/explosions, and nothing against gunfights and explosions but gimme a break please, season 2 had 3 gunfights if I remember correctly. The one after the plane crash where Jack snipes while Nina spots him, the one in the alley with Jack, Yusuf, and John Wallace going against Kingsley's men (which was spectacular), and then the one in the coliseum at the end, which was actually just Jack sniping some guys and fistfighting another. Season 3 seemed to drag on for a while in the second half, season 4 was ok, and season 5 was a blemish, a good season (a little similar to season 2 as mentioned) but wtf @ the decision to fucking kill EVERYBODY, give me a break and think shit through. ALSO, wtf at the russian guy with the english accent in season 5, my god.

24 has yet to have a really decent overarching plotline from one season to another. Don't expect to see a bunch of old faces pop back up in that show. However I think a bigger plotline will develop because the show is getting stale fast (well, it got stale a long time ago actually) and it needs to be more like Lost and develop a gigantic story arch.

proof that the part of your brain that forms opinions is badly damaged

Ponuh you obviously have been watching the new episodes, yet you have such a low opinion of the show. Why do you waste your time on a show you don't enjoy?

s1-3 was overarching, but they did a good thing and ended it well
s4-6 at least have Logan (he will return), the chinese, and 5-6 have graham

Yeah seasons 1 and 3 involved Operation Nightfall. We have yet to find out what the great price to free Jack from the chinese was.

A full blown multi-season direct arch would even further alienate the people who still complain about the show's format, "omg you have to watch them all"

Haven't I already explained that to you?



*Television show

I don't understand that mindset, but to each there own I guess.

If I found a show's plot "stale," there's no way I'd waste my time on it.

The premise is incredibly stale.

your mom's incredibly stale
