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.

The Shield without question man. Should be able to get first season for 20 bucks online.

Additional Spam:
Also what will happen to Palmer then. I am sure he would have recovered. I don't remember how along he was in his term, but it was at least two years wasn't it. So next one has to be two years later then. And Palmer didnt have enough support for another 4 years I guess =0

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

I second BZ's recommendation of The Shield. Definitely one of the top three shows still on TV right now (sucks that it only has one more season left, though).

As for this female president, it seems like they're going more for shock value rather than feasibility. I'm not saying a female president will never happen (heck, it could happen within the next few years), but the way they're making such a big deal about it just makes it seem like they want to surprise people more than anything. I mean, by comparison, they never made such a big deal about Palmer being the first black president, it just seemed like a natural thing.

And I've never even heard of the woman who will be playing her.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

She looks very presidentey.

What is this 'The Shield'?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Rockgamer · Local time: Jul 23, 2007, 06:52 PM

The Shield is a cop show that comes on FX, but just calling it a cop show really doesn't give it any justice at all. The show is just so awesome. I'd recommend buying it sight unseen, but if you need convincing, try watching at least the first episode somewhere. I'd be seriously surprised if you didn't like by the time you got to the end.

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

The woman to play the president was in Ocean's Twelve. She played Linus' (Matt Damon) mother, but that's the only time I've seen her. At least they aren't making some 30-something super model the president.

I just hope they aren't trying to make a statement.

Yep I already got House M.D, and grey's anatomy but I realized I'm not much into those hospital dramas.

Hmm, The Sheild sounds interesting. I never heard of it. THanks for the recommendationS!

I was speaking idiomatically.

Bah, is it anything like 'gripping, great story' 24?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I'm slightly disappointed that the President's going to be part of the new season of 24. I somewhat hoped that with the supposed shake-up of the series that it'd be moving away from that typical element of the series.

Oh definitely, it's just not really on the same scale as 24 (they're just cops, so it's not like they need to stop nuclear bombs or prevent world wars or anything). Even so, it has just as much action, drama, and political intrigue as 24 does.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

yeah I just started watching the shield over the summer, and I am hooked now. Its like right behind 24 for my favorite show. I still like 24 better though, but the shield has helped with the long months waiting for 24 season 7 to begin.

The original plan was to have Jack Bauer travelling Africa trying to find himself, and becoming caught up in a coup with "Black Hawk Down" style results. There was also to be a 12-hour time jump halfway through, with the second half set in the US.

Set spoilers on Season 7...

THERE IS NOT ENOUGH TIME to wait for the shuttle bridge

Shoot, if Jack is stuck in Southeast DC, he's gonna need CTU again if he wants to make it out.

They'd need to have a scene at RFK a la Season 2 (at the LA Coliseum). Jack gets trapped by the retractable bleachers!

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Josh_1 · Aug 17, 2007, 11:52 PM

Who is Cherry Jones?

Well, at least they are still planning to air in January. I also wonder when Season Six will be out on DVD?

How ya doing, buddy?

Grundlefield Earth · Local time: Aug 18, 2007, 01:48 AM

Like every year. First week of December most likely.
