[Movie] 24 Season 6 Discussion Thread

Well, the VP insisted that Jack was acting on his own, but they had reason to believe that this Russian has ties to Gridenko. If they can prove it (via Jack's intel), then the Ruskies will probably back off.

Plus, Jack hasn't killed anyone. That was the huge no-no involving the Chinese consulate thing -- the consul got killed in friendly fire. Plus, any proof to justify their break-in died with the Chinese fellow they abducted.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah, this ep was pretty dull IMHO. Not enough parts involving Jack beating the shit out of people =Y

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Well, Curtis was killed and they needed a replacement. A moving-up in the hierarchy was expected, I'm sure, since Jack is far from being an official head of Field Ops (although I'm sure he's way better than Doyle). I'm sure he and Jack will butt heads and Doyle will get killed. I don't think they'd keep a character around who as much of a douche as he is.

This episode pissed me off something awful. Audrey is dead? They made it sound uncertain when they mentioned ID'ing of her remains, so I hope this is some coverup and she's being held somewhere. Amid Jack's myriad of bimbos he boinked in the past, I liked Audrey's character and development. Just dropping her like that is irritating.

She was in China messing around and probably got some people mad at her as a result, but there might be the off-chance she is just being held. I dunno, the way they detailed her death sounded sketchy. But we'll see. If she really is dead, I'll be quite angry with the show. I liked her character =(

Plus, I know the show is formulaic, but a mole inside of CTU in almost every single season? Come ON.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I just find it odd that someone would die off-camera/scene when they're as major as her. If she IS dead, I'm mad.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I think they focused on the hand to show the condition the corpse was in, rather than something fishy =o

FELIPE NO

Palmer coming to at the end and calling off the strike was awesome. I didn't see it coming to be honest. I forgot about Palmer after he had troubles when coming out of the coma.

Anyhow~ Seems Yosemite Sam (president) is gonna try and oust Palmer from his position. They tried doing this to his older brother, so I'm kinda like "huh what. Again?"

Next ep's preview seems to show a firefight, or at least one starting. We'll see how this rolls along.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I liked the applejuice parallel to Jack's drug problem. Then the constant takeovers ='D Awesome ep, but a good amount of the humor was inside jokes that only fans would've caught.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I dunno. The bad guy blowing up in a corny explosion was worth a laugh ='D DEATH MUST BE OVER-THE-TOP.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I like how Season 6 suddenly turned awesome in one episode.

Palmer bluffing was something I really didn't see coming. I figured it was odd how he had a 180, but figured it was from brain trauma thanks to the adrenaline shot. It was a nice little trick~

Finally, a scene of Jack kicking unexpected levels of ass. When I saw the preview last week, I figured that Jack getting plugged would've been in the last couple minutes of the episode. Was like "sigh." Then he gets plugged, and it's unveiled as a staged op? Fucking awesome.

The fake cell helping out Fayed was a slick plan, as well as the duress-code. I figured that Jack would've arrived on-site and got captured. He didn't call in and I figured it'd come back to bite him in the ass. Not so~

The fight scene with Fayed and his men was fantastic. I also like how you saw Jack pick up his handgun he left behind after it all. Nice little touch =p

But Audrey getting unraveled in this season wasn't what I was expecting. This is good though -- I didn't want to wait another year to see this plot device get tended to. I figured there'd be more stuff with Fayed and the nukes, but it seems to focus on tying off Jack's troubles with the Chinese. I'm guessing they want the nukes or nuke detonators. Either way, this'll be cool.

"Mr. President, you owe me." ;D

"Damn, Jack..." <3 Sums up what I've been waiting on someone to say to Jack after all these seasons.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

That or they noticed that physical torture did nothing to Jack. They're probably hoping that Audrey will make him snap and tell them whatever. But I'm guessing they want the suitcase nukes. Why else in the preview was everyone pointing their guns at him? =p

If it wasn't for Jack, Fayed would've gotten away though =o Also, what else could he do? He caught the duress code, so he figured they were using him. He did the best thing possible, really!

I didn't notice the music =( 24's BGM is often too silent or unnoticeable for me at times so I don't pick up on it typically when it plays. Now I feel disappointed that I didn't hear the tune.

FELIPE NO

Aw. Figured Audrey was probably scarred, but I didn't think she was mentally defective =( Huge bummer.

And Bill getting fired got under my skin. The whole procedure was legit (the fact that Bill let Fayed get away when he wasn't a big-name-player), I figured. Ahh well. Next week: more of CTU getting in Jack's way =Y

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I think the spy they mention in the preview is inside the administration. Maybe Daniels or his girl? But I guess that a true bad-guy president has been done before (Logan).

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Probably =o

There's nowhere I can't reach.

It's what we do in this thread... >__>;

How ya doing, buddy?

Spoiler:

MILO. NOOOOOOOOOO ;___; When he stood up, I just KNEW they were going to cap him.

Jack's impressive bodycount was quite cool. The preview for next week looks slick -- firefight =D

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

The sleeping-with-a-spy plot was used in an earlier season already. Although, instead of sleeping with the guy, she knifed him >_> o wl.

Maybe next season will pan out okay. I felt S3 blew chunks, so maybe there's just bad luck with multiples of "3". Lookin' forward to S7...? =p

I was speaking idiomatically.

The books are decent? ;O How nifty is Milo in them?

Wonder who the "replacement" to CTU's Head will be (even though they probably won't be introduced this season). Maybe Driscoll will return?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Kinda "wtf'd" at how Nadia grappled with a big Chinese dude. Figured he'd snap the poor girl in two =(

Also, how did Doyle know to come back and help out?

FELIPE NO

Hmm. Point made on Doyle's random return >__>

I still think Jack shoulda plugged the Chinese fellow in the leg or something. I just KNEW he'd get away.

2hr episode next week surprised me. Thought there was only one ep left =o Well... Maybe it'll somehow redeem itself with a nice cliffhanger/ending. Thought I'm sure it'll be a cliffhanger. Poor Jack never rests Season 2 or 3 was the last one that had an "o yay. Happy~" sorta season ending.

Edit:: They're moving from LA? Huh.

Well they could always tap a Neo-Nazi storyline =p Random terrorism scares as opposed to one big uber-bomb. Like one group leading offensives repeatedly on certain sites. That'd require lotsa of bodycount++ from Jack =D

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

=(

The last episode was very nice to a point. I noticed Kim Raver's name on the opening credit reel, so I saw her appearance in the final scene coming... But I figured Jack would've left with her. Is this effectively how they're gonna remove Senator Heller & Audrey from the story?

Very sad ending to the season without much of a guess of what's to come. It seems Jack will be doing more drifting than Ken from Kung Fu >_> Anyhow, I liked Jack's discussion with Heller. It brought up a good point... They pulled Jack out of China, but it was several years after he was taken there. It seems that the folks Jack took orders from really did see him as an acceptable loss.

At least Bill didn't get killed. When they were going to land on the rig, I figured Bill would've gotten capped. Good to see that he and Karen will probably fade out in to retirement.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

He probably didn't resist because I bet he knows that Jack capped one of his own buddies (Curtis) earlier that day. I wouldn't screw with him either =p
