addicted to “24″

We’ve never watched the TV show 24 until this Christmas. Never started watching it when it came out because we were watching a bunch of other shows at the time. Yeah, we’re TV junkies. So we decided to watch all the seasons and catch up. Season 1 started the week before Christmas and we just now finished Season 5.

I’m addicted! I like Jack Bauer. Once I start the show I have to keep watching. In fact I think it’s better watching it all at once like we are doing. We just finished our Season 5 “24″ marathon weekend. I love the show. Please, no spoilers about Season 6.

Here are 24 observations of 24:

1. I liked that Season 5 started off with a bang, literally.
2. Poor Tony, he’s had a rough time. I like Tony. As for as I know Tony is dead. Not my Tony!
3. Jacks likes to use his whispery voice most of the time.
4. He only speaks louder when he yells, “do it NOW”.
5. Chloe is by far my second favorite character with her “personality disorder”. If she dies, I’ll be really really sad.
6. Evey thing happens in LA. But seriously, some of the stuff would realistically happen on the east coast.
7. What’s up with the sissy president in Season 5. I don’t want a sissy president.
8. Jack always says, “Trust me, I’ll explain everything later.” Does he really?
9. Evey time CTU sends someone out with 2-3 guys as protection, they always end up dead. Aren’t they trained?
10. Why is it that Jack and Curtis never wear helmets on an assignment but the other guys do? Are they immune to head wounds?
11. Jacks always losing the women he loves. That’s sad.
12. When does Jack use the bathroom or stop for coffee or water?
13. As for #12, he is a guy so he can go to the bathroom pretty much anywhere.
14. What’s up with people not trusting each other at CTU?
15. Jack’s daughter has serious issues. She needs to be tough. Yes, I know her situation.
16. I can always spot the bad guy/girl. I didn’t pick up on Nina but that was Season 1, since then they’re easy to spot.
17. Back to Tony. He must have neck problems because his head is always tilted to one side.
18. Is it really that easy to get around in LA?
19. Jack was better looking in Season 1. But he’s still nice eye candy.
20. I did notice in Season 5 that Audrey wore high heels when not around Jack.
21. She did wear low heels while she was standing next to him.
22. I LOVE Jean Smart and she did a great job in Season 5. Loved her smirk when Pres. Logan was taken away.
23. Poor Edgar.
24. Poor Jack. He’s on his way to China and no one knows but the viewers.

    Great post! I’m really looking forward to the new season of 24. As you alluded to, the series became a little formulaic in seasons five and six. Supposedly they are going to trick things up going forward. We’ll see.
