[Movie] 24 Season 6 Discussion Thread

The last episode was most probably good for one thing: Jack killings.

Other than that I was f***cking mad at him for not being able to kill Cheng. I mean he's starting to be like the villain that always gets away and that will never be caught. Just like Inspector Gadget against dr. Mad.

Anyway, I have to agree that this story with Jack's family having the fate of the world in their hands plot, is really bad.

Better be some explosive action for the finale...

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Looking forward to tonight (well tomorrow), lets see if the spoilers i've read play out.

FELIPE NO

I found the Simpsons 24 pretty amusing. It really should've been the 400th episode, because that one was some weak sauce.

Anyway, the double hour of Bauer is soon to be upon us. I'm ready for Tony. No lie.

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

I think I'm going to watch Heroes and DVR the double Bauer hour, which is the opposite of what I normally do. I'm just not very pumped for 24.

It was alright, but seriously, there was not enough time Jack Bauer. He was only in like two scenes, and one of them had already been showed through commercials. I liked the rest of the 24 aspects of the episode, but it was ripoff in the Jack Bauer department (and even more in the Chloe department). Then again, it's really not that much different than how this season of 24 has played out (lack of Jack for the lose).

And man, I haven't even caught up on Heroes (I'm still one episode behind), so that's not even an option for me. Is tonight's episode gonna be two hours like 24's season finale?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

=(

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.

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

OMG GUYS SPOILER!




READY?





SURE?






IT'S A SILENT CLOCK WHOMG.

How ya doing, buddy?

Chloe being pregnant, I saw that a mile away.
The ending was quite calm compared to the usual endings. I was expecting a bullet to Heller or Jack jumping off the cliff. lol

It wasn't all silent. You could heard the waves.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Meh. There's an air purifier going in the room with my TV. I didn't notice. Either way, it wasn't a clock.. basically the same as the end to the second season.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Ah, guess they're delaying the return of Tony until the next season.

Wait, what? Silent clock? Guess Jack is dead.

Oh well, start the countdown until we FILL IT UP AGAIN!

Also, I haven't put up a LOL-quote in a while, so here's one: "We're commandeering this helicopter. Get out now."

How ya doing, buddy?

I hope this hasn't been posted yet. Here is Jack and Tony at a drive-thru:

Funny stuff.

Naz, the lol oh shit quote was, "You send someone, I'll kill them. I'm pretty good at that too."

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Haha, that was lol too.

But in the helicopter one, I liked how the pilot didn't put up any struggle at all or say anything. "GET OUT NOW." *takes off headset, steps out of helicopter* doo-doo-doo-doo... :3

There's nowhere I can't reach.

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

Not a bad finale.
I had read the spoilers and was really hoping for Tony to return, but it was not to be. My first reaction after watching it was, to be honest, awful. But, after thinking about it, I think it was good for the show, as it allows a fresh start. There is nothing really calling us back, allowing the writers to do something completely new for season 7 (well, that's what they've told us anyway )

How ya doing, buddy?

EPA locating the oil rig ftw. WE FIGHT TERRORISTS TOO.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I thought about starting a Season 7 thread for 24 until I read this:

http://community.tvguide.com/blog-en...Plot/800018254

I really hope they can come up with something....then again maybe not. As much as I love 24, I think FOX should let the show go. Havn't the writers done all they can with 24? I don't want 24 to be like an aging athlete who should have retired a couple seasons ago. Look at what happened to another FOX show The X-Files. I thought the first seven seasons were great, but the last two were OK at best. Some hits but a lot more misses. The show should have ended after seven seasons. I think 24 should quit while it's ahead.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Yeah, I heard about that. It's kinda stupid for FOX to do this when the producers are finally making some changes to try and add some more life to the show. If we end up with even more crappier plots than last year, FOX will definitely be to blame.

As for the show ending, I kinda want it to go at least one more season so it can redeem itself from last year, and not go out on a sour note like that. And as unplausible as it would be, I've always wanted to see two back-to-back days. I think that would be an awesome cliffhanger, but of course it would take two seasons to do.

FELIPE NO

I'm pleased that they noticed fans were upset with S6. Maybe they'll pull it together, given this delay.

Female president? Augh. "GRRL POWAH"

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

Why would they potentially ruin a great storyline just because of some eps in Africa? FOX could kill on it if it was Season 1 and 2 quality.

I am sure a fake Africa in US could have sufficed.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yeah, I'm still itching for the 2-season back-to-back day 24. And I'm still calling for the return of Almeida. Bring it, FOX.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Bit offtopic but what country they were refering to in middleeast in whole season 6?

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

I believe they deliberately did not name any specific country.

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

Yeah, they never have any problem naming countries like Russia or China, but they go out of their way as much as possible not to name any Middle Eastern countries.

I was speaking idiomatically.

A little off-topic question, but since Im not American or not in america, I would like to ask what other tv shows has the same if not better quality than 24?

I love serialized action/suspense shows. So far I've got the DVDs of Heroes, 24 and Prison Break and all are damn entertaining! Anything else I must see?

p.s. I don't like Lost though, never really got to like it, it seems to absurd to me.
