24 Season 5 Discussion

I thought Buchanan went in to the room with everyone else last week. This week he was in his office. I guess I missed something last week.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Kim is suppose to get out of the city, but I can't shake the feeling that something crazy is going to happen to her. Crazy plot and Kim go hand in hand.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

A few pages back Rollins talked a little about CTU getting attacked again. I've done some thinking on it and it makes no sense that CTU got attacked during this season. It made sense during sense during season two because the bad guys knew that CTU would be a big problem for them all day long so they took action. They obviously planned and prepared their attack many months in advance. It seems to me that the bad guys for this season planned on dealing with CTU for a couple of hours (airport) and then never think about them again because they were going to leave America and go bother Russia. So, there would be no reason for them to plan in advance an elaborate attack on CTU. I think that the attack that they did on CTU would have taken a few months to plan and prepare for. They put it together in an hour or two. How would they know that Lynn would end up at CTU-Los Angeles? How did they know about Lynn's sister and her boyfriend? Did the bad guys call them or vice versa? I don't know. Hopefully someone smarter than me can explain the whole damn thing. Maybe I missed something.

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

Am I the only one who feels like we are not getting to know the bad guy(s) as well during this season than in past seasons? It just seems to me that by this point in the season we knew a lot about past bad guy(s), but not the current one(s). Has Bierko given any specifics on why he didn't want the treaty signed? I remember him saying something like "I've worked too hard for this to happen." How is the treaty going to affect him? Have I missed something? I know we still have 11 more episodes to go and we can learn something, but I think we should have more information by now.

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

Oh, gee wiz man. Rolls eyes. Sigh...

I was speaking idiomatically.

Hollywood people can write all the social commentary, political commentary, and any other type of commentary they want into their products, I just can't take them seriously. Most of Hollywood is liberal and I'm NOT a liberal. And well, shot, never mind. I don't feel like getting into a political debate.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Yeah, Miles just happened to have that device available. Really convenient.

FELIPE NO

My favorite line of the episode: "Is there anything else Charles?"

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

I'm surprised it took the Chinese so long to do something. At the start of the season I thought that the Chinese would be a problem for the second half of the season. I thought that Kim would be kidnaped by the Chinese as she was leaving the city after being at CTU. Although I liked the season, I have to say it's my least favorite of the five. There seemed to be too many coincidences. Can't wait for next season. January 2007 seems so far away.
