The OFFICIAL weekly "24" Season 5 Live thread!

FOX 24 ^ | 1-15-06 | Jack Bauer

[LS]

I think Logan reminds me of Nixon. He's almost an exact replica, face-wise. Attitude-wise, he is close to Kerry.

[LS]

Another thing Jack can't do: get anyone to follow his orders when he says, "Stay there!"

[LS]

Kid is weird looking, like a part-Vulcan.

[hummingbird]

The dark haired metrosexual that's advising President Logan.

Walt....hmmmm. We KNOW Logan is a complete idiot; is Walt really a bad guy or is he Logan's "handler" for the good guys? Or, is Walt Logan's "handler" for the bad guys?

And...who's "handling" Walt!

[ToddBush]

Women in movies and TV have that problem. The guy (who invariably has a background in the police or military or both) will say "Stay here!" or "Get your stuff and leave town!" and for some reason, they don't trust their man, they want to know why.

Woman! Don't ask why! Just do it! Can't you hear the intensity and force in my voice? Does it sound like I'm talking about what color curtains we are getting? Freaking do what I say!!

[hummingbird]

I haven't seen her in years, this looks like a good part for her, and she looks good too.

Agree! She's been underrated as an actress, IMHO, and she looked beautiful even with her face & hair splashed and disheveled!

[hummingbird]

Thanks, CWCT; I need to take a refresher course at Blockbuster!

[LS]

Just once they ought to show Jack in one of those Hassidic Jewish beards, just for fun. "Hey, guys, they just set me up with this disguise. What do you think?"

[LS]

The brother---don't know the actor's name---played a great sleazy bad guy in the Jet Li movie, "Romeo Must Die." Great flick.

[hummingbird]

do we have rules?

It is like "Calvin & Hobbes" rules....they shift and change at a whim and no one is bound by any rule unless they want to be, and so on....!

I like to be already in my PJ's in case there is a Pajama Brigade Alert on another thread (even though I wouldn't actually respond until '24' is over).

I also listen for my favourite words, especially "perimeter" and "protocol."

"Your mileage may vary!"

[LS]

Really, the "mole at CTU" is getting old. For a supposedly "secure" facility, this place just lets in anyone---Russians, Latino gang members, Chechens, Arabs. Puh-lease.

Let's have one season with no mole at CTU.

[LS]

Maybe Derrick and Behrooz will end up being gay lovers this season?

[hummingbird]

Mea culpa, CWCT. Trust me, I'm just trying to keep you guys out of the gutter (and I haven't really learned how to post a pic yet...arghhhhh....).

[LS]

My wife gave me each previous season of "24" too and I would watch them in bundles of two or three. But this year, I HAD to go live. Couldn't take waiting until December.

[hummingbird]

If they are really dead......

I'm pretty sure about Michelle but have to admit that we came up with ways & reasons why the Palmer assassination might have been faked.

Then we had to duct tape our heads back together....

[mslee]

Does anyone know who played the guy that killed Palmer? His face is so familiar but I can't find his name! It's making me crazy!

[hummingbird]

I got two hour of ironing done...really FAST ironing!

LOL! Jack Bauer Power Ironing, '24' style!

[DJ MacWoW]

He's not a total socialist or liberal. He loves guns and was a real cowboy. Ranked 7th with his roping partner in the US and 9th in the world. :)

[conservativebabe]

I had to Tivo it last night and watch it late, but it was sooooo worth the wait!

Holy cow! Killed off Palmer and Michelle in the same episode.

Hope Tony pulls through.

2 more unbelievable hours tonight.

[LS]

Look at this thread, just as the show starts. Someone recognized him. I didn't know the show, or the character. I think they said "China Beach."
