Guest Evolution Posted March 31, 2004 Report Posted March 31, 2004 I'm thinking it has something to do with Operation Nightfall, which was only mentioned in Season One. It's a long shot, and it's risky to bring up given that the fan base of 24 are probably people who joined in around the 2nd season, not the 1st, but it's a nice reward for those of us who DO remember Operation Nightfall in Kosovo (that led to the Drazens in Season 1)
OldSchoolWrestling Posted March 31, 2004 Report Posted March 31, 2004 What if its Teri Bauer's brother? I have no idea. But i'm sure it will be good.
Spicy McHaggis Posted April 2, 2004 Author Report Posted April 2, 2004 IT'S NINA~! Wait. Funniest thing from you ever, T.

Im happy they went back that far. Kinda a payoff for fans who followed all the way through. Awesome shit.
Dr. Tyler; Captain America Posted April 7, 2004 Report Posted April 7, 2004 HOLY SHIT. Jack is really, truly a huge badass. Is anyone else really digging this ep so far? Haha.
Dr. Tyler; Captain America Posted April 7, 2004 Report Posted April 7, 2004 Whoa, what. the. fuck. I do wish Jack would've taken out the helicopter, though. And at least he didn't die. WHOA.
Dr. Tyler; Captain America Posted April 7, 2004 Report Posted April 7, 2004 Wow. The euthinasia theme of this episode is really powerful.
Mole Posted April 7, 2004 Report Posted April 7, 2004 WOAH, WOAH, WOAH. Taking out Chappelle? SHIT IS LIT.
Dr. Tyler; Captain America Posted April 7, 2004 Report Posted April 7, 2004 Oh my fucking God. I know it's just a few minutes after the episode and we haven't had time to digest it and whatnot, but I truly think that was the best episode of 24 they've made.
packwingfn Posted April 7, 2004 Report Posted April 7, 2004 Did you notice that Jack still hasn't called Palmer yet and let him know who this guy is....while Palmers playing games with them. And what ever happened to the Sherry Situation? did they realize it was going nowhere and cut it? if so, good move
SpikeFayeJettEdBebop Posted April 7, 2004 Report Posted April 7, 2004 I agree, best ep this season. It kicked so much fucking ass. And yeah, I agree, SHIT IS LIT.
Guest Evolution Posted April 7, 2004 Report Posted April 7, 2004 Definitely the best episode this season, but the season 1 finale trumps this one quite easily. Still, it's fun to watch it all come together for the end.
bobobrazil1984 Posted April 7, 2004 Report Posted April 7, 2004 helicopter attack = coolest scene of the season so far!
Guest Fook Posted April 7, 2004 Report Posted April 7, 2004 And what ever happened to the Sherry Situation? did they realize it was going nowhere and cut it? if so, good move I think so. Palmer told her off in last week's episode and told her to go home. I have a feeling it'll be brought up again once a few hours pass and the media is made aware of Milliken's death.
BlackFlagg Posted April 7, 2004 Report Posted April 7, 2004 g'damn that episode ruled....Kiefer said in a recent interview that this last batch of episodes this season would be some of the best work they've done and so far he's right on the money
MarvinisaLunatic Posted April 7, 2004 Report Posted April 7, 2004 Last nights episode was probably the best episode since Season 1. The good points are that they've seemingly condensed storylines down a lot (now the only major subplot is between Michelle and Tony). They've pretty much written out Kim (gee, I wonder why) for the past few episodes and it looks like they put the whole Sherry thing on the backburner. I liked tying in Saunders to the first season.
Jonathon Posted April 7, 2004 Report Posted April 7, 2004 That escort service woman was SPECTACULARLY put together.
Guest Evolution Posted April 7, 2004 Report Posted April 7, 2004 One problem with all of this is that in one of the books that is a guide to 24, the mission details on Operation Nightfall in Kosovo do not list Saunders as one of the people killed. A minor oversight, for sure.
Spicy McHaggis Posted April 8, 2004 Author Report Posted April 8, 2004 That escort service woman was SPECTACULARLY put together. Concur.
Guest Evolution Posted April 8, 2004 Report Posted April 8, 2004 By the way, here's another throwback to the first season: In season 1, Jack talked with Palmer about what the Drazens were up to when a cell phone he was given in the scene with the sniper at the oil rig began to ring. Jack gave it to Palmer, Palmer talked to the Drazens, and Jack realized it was a trap, throwing the cell phone just in time before it was blown. Notice the main Secret Service man (an actor I love) gave him the cell phone from Saunders' package, simply mentioning that it was "clean." Nice touch there.
Spicy McHaggis Posted April 8, 2004 Author Report Posted April 8, 2004 Another reward for us long-time fans.
Mole Posted April 10, 2004 Report Posted April 10, 2004 I thought the SS guy was just doing that because he is the President and they need to make sure he is safe. But that continuty is great too.
Guest Miss Indy Queen Posted April 13, 2004 Report Posted April 13, 2004 FYI. They're not showing 24 tonight!!! I was watching fox news this morning and they said that they're showing a State of the Union address at 8:30pm so American Idol is being bumped to Wednesday night with results on Thursday but they made no indication of what's happening with 24. Before and after the Presidential thing is an episode of that 70's show. I'm so damn bummed over this because I was so looking forward to tonight's show. Edit: If you go to 24 Homepage they have a pop up window that says episode 18 of 24 will Air on Sunday April 18th at 9pm. So there you have it, tonight's episode will be on sunday night.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted April 13, 2004 Report Posted April 13, 2004 We waited 4 weeks for a new episode 2 weeks ago, whats a few more days? And the turn around to next weeks episode will be short...
El Gigante Posted April 13, 2004 Report Posted April 13, 2004 Well I really wanted to see tonights episode, but if it's on sunday night then I only have to wait 2 nights til the next episode. So I guess it works out good in the end.
Guest T®ITEC Posted April 13, 2004 Report Posted April 13, 2004 Oh, for the love of Jeebus... Well, whatever. According to Comcast's little schedule, "The Swan" is on in 24's spot. Fantastic.
Spicy McHaggis Posted April 13, 2004 Author Report Posted April 13, 2004 More East Coast bias. The west has no scheduling conflict...
