I think there was also some really hot asian neo-nazi chick with a whip or something just walking around and looking sexy. Well anyway what was that whole thing about?

That sounds like the very first scene in Season 2, I believe.

Someone was getting tortured in South Korea and gave up information that said that a nuclear attack on America was going to happen within the day. That's about it.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

President Logan is hilarious to watch.

While Palmer was (written) like an awesome President, its nice to see a President that doesnt act like he has much control and freaks out at any given moment, like Logan does (or seems to do imo)

Not to mention...his facial expressions are funny as hell.


And the Hobbit. Another character that I thought "WTF" yet it worked soooo well.
This season rocks so far. Looking forward to the "double Bauer Hour" Monday.
Oh yeh, if you miss Dennis Haysbert, there is "The Unit", but I think he also plays Lambert in Splinter Cell's games (at least the 1st and 2nd one, I've never played the third one.). It's funny to hear him in Splinter Cell and think "Y'know, that guy played a President once..."

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

Dennis Haysbert plays Lambert in the SC:Chaos Theory as well.

Most amazing jew boots

I was mighty happy to see two explosions Monday. That was absolutely wonderful.

I was speaking idiomatically.

No haysbert, was only in the second one. The first lambert was actually better so he came back for the third.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I was amazed when I first played Splinter Cell 2 and herad his voice saying "Fisher, what are you doing ? The mission is over !"

I've watched up to episode 4 of this season, and so far it's been as great as any other.

FELIPE NO

"For ******'s sake Fisher, what the hell are you doing?"

Just imagine if Haysbert had to play one of Jack's CTU bosses or something.......haha...

It'd work.

didnt know he only did Splinter Cell 2 though.

How ya doing, buddy?

I agree this show needs more explosions. But explosions aren't the reason I watch it. Anyway 2hrs of 24 comin liek > ^__^ >

Jam it back in, in the dark.

There's a review for Monday's 2 hour episode in the new issue of Entertainment Weekly where they gripe about....

Spoiler:

Kim's return.

...but give the overall episode an A. There's somewhat of a spoiler in the mini-review so I'll tag it to be on the safe side:

Spoiler:

"Fortunately, there's more going on in these 2 hours....and the death of a series vet"

Spoiler:

Not looking at the show, but just the outside circumstances, It's probably Audrey. I believe I heard that Kim Raver is filming a movie, and that she has also been added to the cast of a new show coming on this fall as well. Even if this specific instance isn't her, she'll probably be leaving soon anyway.

Spoiler:

Well it's the "series vet" comment that caught me and Audrey isn't really a vet of the series considering she was only introduced in Season 4. It could be Tony since we know from the last preview he finally wakes up but I'd imagine the writers would try and go for the no-so-obvious choice.

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

Spoiler:

I see your point, but considering how a lot of people don't survive season to season (killed off or otherwise), some people consider anybody who was in a previous season a series vet. Whether it's Audrey or not though, this pointless killing off of regulars is getting pretty ridiculous. Two already killed, two almost killed, it makes it look like the writers are running out of ideas.

Spoiler:

True. I guess Audrey would seem like the unlikely choice to get "offed". While I've enjoyed the new season a great deal I agree about killing off too many of the regulars. I miss Palmer and Michelle...

fox.com has a clip of the first 15/20 seconds of mondays 2 hour special. If you go to www.fox.com, and at the bottom by the media player just press the icon with the 24 logo and it should play.

Spoiler:

Ugh, why did Buchanan have to lie to Tony. Geez. That'll just get Tony pissed off and have a mental break-down later.

Most amazing jew boots

Damn, why did I watch that. I continue to be miserable for the next 42 hours.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Off-topic but, awesome = seeing Dennis Haysbert on SNL.

Oh spoilers, how you tempt me. But I resist! I'm trying to be pure for the coming 2 hour feast o_o

There's nowhere I can't reach.

That is how it is done Rollins. I learned to be pure is 10 times better then not being so. I learned this when I caught up the episodes when season 3 was airing and watched a couple of them.

How ya doing, buddy?

What a way to have 2hr premiere!

Spoiler:

are they trying to kill everyone off this season though? damn

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

Oh my god, I had chills watching at the end of this episdoe. This is the reason that I watch this show.

How ya doing, buddy?

I had just made a comment to my friends about how great an Edgar/Chloe sitcom would be when Edgar made his "Oh shit" face. ;_________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ _______________;


Also, requesting a ytmnd with Curtis running down the hallway of the hospital carrying the canister with MOVE BITCH playing in the background.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

What an event...X-Men 3 trailer was poop...I loved RoboCop's reaction to what Jack does near the end of the first episode. The second hour was even better though. Seriously is no one safe this season?

FELIPE NO

Haha, Edgar.

Spoiler:

More like DEAD-gar.

Most amazing jew boots

I just got back from school..

I missed the entire show tonight since my class started at 8PM and ended at 10PM.

Anyone care to give me a quick synopsis? No one in my house recorded the damn thing, so I'm at a total loss.

;_;

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I told you nothing would stop me from watching 24 tonight. I told my roommate that if I wasn't there to assume I was dead. In fact, I almost died crossing a highway at night. I made it with under two minutes to spare.

That was ridiculous.

Spoiler:

What the hell? Someone else dies next episode again. Probably Lynn.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
