24 - holy crap!

SPOILER ALERT!!

If you haven't watched the second hour of Monday night's episodes, don't scroll down.








































Jack killed Curtis! WTF?


And they actually detonated a nuclear bomb?

Wow, that's the way to start a season!

Re: 24 - holy crap!

The only two episodes that I've ever watched were last night's two hour and tonight's two hour....I'm hooked. I guess I'll rent the season DVD's.

Re: 24 - holy crap!

Curtis is my favorite f...ing character after jack. OMFG. This is the best show in the world. I had heard the ending was jaw dropping but man. The last ten minutes!!! 4 more nukes? This season is going to be as good as the rest.


CUrtis is dead!! WHY? I don't care for any of the other characters. Jack killed him.

Jack's character is by far the most deep and interesting character in the history of television. His character has actually progressed every season and he has become a shell of the man he was. Every season he does things and things happen to him and you can just see and feel his pain. Killing curtis hurt him so bad. Just seeing him crawling, crying, and vomiting you could feel for him. So many things have happened to him.

How many are dead from the bomb? My mind is blown. So many things happened.

I love this show. I've seen it since the very beginning and have all the seasons. Bauer in my username comes from jack.

YOu will appreciate the show so much more once you see the other seasons. The first two seasons are amazing. It feels as if you don't need to watch the other seasons to watch this one but to truly appreciate it you will need to see the rest.

I envy those that haven't seen those seasons yet because they can experience the best parts of the show for the first time.

Re: 24 - holy crap!

I would skip seasons 3-4, though. It kind of gets a little tired, and you can read up on the pertinent plot twists online. Last season was really good, though.

Re: 24 - holy crap!

This may have been posted already, but some of these are great (the number to the left is the "rating" out of 4). Shamelessly stolen from here.
  • 3.30 Jack and Jill went up the hill. Only Jack came down. Jill was a ****ing terrorist.
  • 3.29 Jack Bauer could get off the Lost island in 24 hours.
  • 3.29 If Jack Bauer was in a room with Hitler, Stalin, and Nina Meyers, and he had a gun with 2 bullets, he'd shoot Nina twice.
  • 3.27 Jack Bauer once forgot where he put his keys. He then spent the next half-hour torturing himself until he gave up the location of the keys.
  • 3.26 1.6 billion Chinese are angry with Jack Bauer. Sounds like a fair fight.
  • 3.22 The only reason you're conscious right now is because Jack Bauer doesn't want to carry you.
  • 3.20 Killing Jack Bauer doesn't make him dead. It just makes him angry.
  • 3.19 There were originally five horsemen of the apocalypse. Jack Bauer said he would travel by foot.
  • 3.18 They say you can't go a day without water, Jack Bauer has gone five seasons.
  • 3.15 Jack Bauer sleeps with a gun under the pillow. But he could kill you with the pillow.
  • 3.12 When Kim Bauer lost her virginity, Jack found it and put it back.
  • 3.11 When Kim Bauer lost her virginity, Jack found it and put it back.
  • 3.09 When life hands Jack Bauer Lemons, he kills Terrorists. Jack Bauer ****in' hates lemonade.
  • 3.08 As a boy, Jack Bauer interrogated his parents on Easter until they revealed the location and contents of each hidden egg.
  • 3.07 Jack Bauer doesn't miss. If he didn't hit you it's because he was shooting at another terrorist twelve miles away.
  • 3.07 After running out of ammo, Jack stood in the line of fire, took 3 shots to the chest, and used them to reload.
  • 3.05 Nostradamus once predicted in his journal: "In the century 21st, the one known as Jacques will be the savior of the world... five seasons in a row." Moments later, Jack Bauer knocked down the door, shot Nostradamus in the kneecaps, and yelled "WHO ARE YOU WORKING FOR?!"
  • 3.03 A Priest, a Rabbi, and a Minister walked into a bar... and Jack Bauer is going to find out why...
  • 3.01 Superman has Jack Bauer pajamas.
  • 3.01 Jack Bauer has no friends, because as a child when he would play cops and robbers, the robbers would all be interogated and killed.
  • 3.01 Jack Bauer is the reason Waldo is hiding.
  • 3.01 Jack Bauer has been to Mars. Thats why there's no life on Mars.
  • 3.00 Upon hearing that he was played by Kiefer Sutherland, Jack Bauer killed Sutherland. Jack Bauer gets played by no man.
  • 3.00 On Jack Bauers Tax Returns, he has to claim the entire world as his dependants.

Re: 24 - holy crap!

I've only ever watched one season before (season four, I think) and a little more than half way through the season I realized that I absolutely hated it, but I stuck with it until the end anyway. The season finale of that year made me swear off the show forever because I just hated every minute of it.
But, I'm not known for having a ton of will power, so after taking a season off I decided to give 24 another try. I didn't really like Sunday's episodes and I pretty much stopped paying attention half way through the season episode. I told myself that if I didn't like the show anymore after last night's episodes I wouldn't watch anymore of the show. Well, after the second episode last night it looks like I'll be sticking with the show for a little while.

Now, hopefully Jack will shoot Chloe in the face and I can really enjoy the show.

Brilliant.

And OMFG was that crazy! I just hope this isn't the 'Jump the Shark' moment for the show. There's not a whole hell of a lot of places to go with the show now that a nuke has actually gone off.

Re: 24 - holy crap!

I know I'm new to watching but one thought I had was that Curtis isn't confirmed dead. It shows him slumping to the ground with EMT hovering around. Looks like a possible new enemy for Jack...

Re: 24 - holy crap!

I agree Curtis is still around. 24 is a awesome show no doubt. I have found that the first four hours and last hour seem to be the best part. I think they try to hook you then drag it out to keep you tuned.
