24

Word Life. I got some Best Buy Gift Cards for Christmas and I picked up 24 Season 1 because I had heard good things about it. Turns out it was about ten times better than I could ever imagine and I watched all 24 episodes in like six days. Anyway, I picked up season 2 a few days ago and you have to give the producers credit for actually listening to the fans and giving them what they wanted: Kim bouncing around in panties ten seconds into the first episode. I'm loving season 2 so far now too.

 

Anyway, I would really rather not check out season 3 until it comes out on DVD but I was just curious of what the premise is of the season and how it stacks up to the first two? Any help would be appreciated. It's a shame Keifer sounds like he will take season four off.

It deals with bioterrorism and it's probably ahead of season 2 (which I wasn't a big fan of) but it's still way too early to call it ahead of season 1.

I'm loving season 3 very much.....I would also have to put it ahead of 2, and I liked 2 a good deal....but as said above, I can't put it above season 1 yet, but so far it's on the right track :D

I have watched every episode of each season, and this is how I rank them so far: 1, 3, 2. They all were great, IMO though.

Since we are on the subject about questions from The 24 Series, I have one. I saw The complete first season, but only bits of the 2nd and 3rd. How did Nina Myers come back into the picture this season? I thought she was killed In The middle of last season? :huh:

Bulletproof vest? She was shot in the hand, then returned to custody until all that bomb crap was over.

Few people believe this will actually happen.

Probably not, but for me, it's gone from Appointment TV to just another show to snark on. Some teenager is carrying a virus? Who cares? Kiefer was playing everyone from the start and is really a triple-agent who's still working for CTU? What the fuck ever! Chase being tortured? Good, he's the Riley Finn of 24, only not as cool as the original.

 

I just find myself not caring this season. Partly because I'm jaded to the whole gimmick, but also because 24 is such a plot-driven show that when you don't care about the plot, why watch? I don't care about most of the characters since they're so boring & one-dimensional. I never really cared about Michelle, so why should I give a shit if her marriage is on the rocks?

 

Yeah, it's cool to see Nina & Lady Mac again, and the whole Gina Torres storyline is so stupid, it's fun, but honestly--I finish watching an episode, and I'm like, "huh, that was interesting. I wonder what'll happen next. Oh, whatever", then I'll go and not think about 24 again until I see the next ep. I just watch to see what's going to happen (and for Chloe's comic relief), but I'm not nearly as invested in this show as I used to be.

Hahahahahaha, funniest thing I've heard all day.

 

However, I like Chase but I can see where you are coming from.
