The One and Only "24" Thread.....

[Guest MaxPower27]

I think that Sherri is doing this all on her own to get into Palmer's head. Why? Revenge, I think.

 

I'm wondering what Jack does next week to get the feds to turn their guns on him. I was shaking when he had the gun to the back of Nina's head. I wonder what he's done now...

[Guest areacode212]

For those of you who care, La Femme Nikita Season One (from the creators of 24) is supposedly coming to DVD in May. I've never seen the show (I'm only familiar with the Luc Besson movie). Is it nearly as good as 24?

[Guest bps "The Truth" 21]

No.

 

Nowhere near as good as 24.

 

It was a good show for USA...but can't touch 24.

 

I used to watch it and it was a fine waste of an hour...but I wouldn't buy it.

[Guest areacode212]

OK, that officially ruled. I did not see that coming at all.

 

Did anyone else cheer for Nina when she triumphantly said "Everything", then slashed the terrorist's throat? Yeah, I've been enjoying her whimpering and cowering scenes a LOT, but I was happy to finally see her get the upper hand. That was totally badass. I was hoping for more of a reaction from her when Kief was telling his Teri story though.

[Guest Edwin MacPhisto]

God, that was INSANE. Lots of new threads, the plane going down...I'm not gonna make it 3 weeks, guys.

[Guest packwingfn]

Ya figures Xmas Eve and New Years Eve have to fall on Tuesdays...

A whole 3 weeks without 24? Damn, Looks like they made sure the BEST episode was this week so it makes people cant wait for 3 weeks...

 

When I mean this one was the best, I mean like all the things finally spiced up, The reporter coming out with the bomb story, The Bomb in the truck, The Airplane Explosion, OMG I CANT WAIT 3 WEEKS!!!

[Guest MaxPower27]

Is the bomb even in the truck? I figured that they were on their way to getting it.

[Guest packwingfn]

And I cant believe they showed the plane take a huge dip like that on TV, I thought the censors would have been all over that.....

[Guest packwingfn]

Ya Im pretty sure they were the ones delivering the bomb, I thought

 

And thats why they were nervous when the truck came up with a flat tire

 

I could be wrong though

[Guest El Satanico]

Well this weeks episode was kinda slow for first half, but that last ten minutes more then made up for it.

[Guest MaxPower27]

I think they were on their way to getting the bomb.

 

Has it been 3 weeks yet?

 

::checks clock::

 

Not even close...

[Guest chirs3]

When does the next episode air!? They did one of those stupid "Next, on local news" and it cutoff the very very end, where they say stuff like "Next time", and I thought I heard Saturday night but I'm confused!

 

WHEN?!

[Guest areacode212]

In 3 weeks.

[Guest chirs3]

Whew... wait, hold on...

 

*checks TV guide for Saturday*

 

Ok, not there. I could swear I heard "-is Saturday nigh-" in between getting cut off, but if you guys say three weeks, ok...

[Guest El Satanico]

Yeah it clearly said 3 weeks.

[Guest MarvinisaLunatic]

Hey, its not as bad as last year, when they didnt have a new episode for the like the whole month of december or something of the like.

 

Somehow, I think the plane crashes, Nina is killed, and Jack manages to make it out but now has no clue what to do since Nina was the only one that new anything.

[Guest Vern Gagne]

I loved Jack's speech about his wife.

[Guest areacode212]

Yes, the holidays are over, so we can get back to what's REALLY important, namely tonight's new episode of 24.

[Guest MarvinisaLunatic]

I've seen the future! I feel sad for all of you who have to wait another 6 hours+..

[Guest areacode212]

A viewer discretion disclaimer?? Holy crap, what's gonna happen tonight?

[Guest Kahran Ramsus]

A viewer discretion disclaimer?? Holy crap, what's gonna happen tonight?

Probably because of the plane crash. People seem to be really sensitive about planes nowadays.

[Guest areacode212]

That was pretty intense, but I think the 3-week break definitely didn't help. I had trouble working up the level of excitement I had before.

 

What the hell?? They just showed something WAY too spoilery in next week's preview.

[Guest MarvinisaLunatic]

I thought that episode ruled..best of the season so far..

 

but thats just me..

[The Dames 0]

Holy SHIT! That was definitely the best episode this season by far! Everything was done perfectly and all of the storylines are coming together finally. Thank god that Megan shit is over.

 

Next week's looks AWESOME.

 

Fuck the Drazens, these terrorists are the SHIT.

[Guest Kahran Ramsus]

In Canada we don't get the previews for some reason.

[Guest Edwin MacPhisto]

I missed the first four episodes of this season; I only got into 24 at 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.

 

Does ANYONE know a place I can find the episodes short of Kazaa? I've had a lot of trouble getting bad copies off of there.

 

Tonight's episode was amazing, and I felt like the clips from next week's episode would be spoilery too...but they're all disjointed, and nothing's ever what it seems on 24 anyway.

 

::twitch:: Want mooore...

[Guest areacode212]

How did Mason break the news of his radiation poisoning to Tony? I missed that part coming back from commercial and only made it back in time to see Tony rubbing his eyes and going all "Oh man, I'm sorry".

[Guest Edwin MacPhisto]

Tony asked him why he was acting so erratically, why he left and then came back like he really cared about the bomb and CTU when he only cared about himself...and then George just told him, point blank. Excellent little scene.

[Guest chirs3]

Edwin - bad copies how? Sound but no picture, or picture but no sound? Stuff like that?

 

If so, I may be able to help you. There are about a billion (or at least a few dozen) packs of CODECS, whatever the hell those are, on the internet. After I got an episode of the first season with no picture, the guy I got it from recommended I search for the "Unified Codecs Pack". I downloaded and installed it, haven't had a problem since.

[Guest Edwin MacPhisto]

No, not codecs. Files that wouldn't play in any fashion--that were corrupt. I ran Dskchk on them (in XP) and it cut them down to anywhere from 3-80 megs, meaning my episodes were now between 10 seconds and 10 minutes long.

 

It has been, to put it lightly, weird. Especially since I have a perfectly working copy of 9AM to 10AM, while the others self-destructed.
