OK fellow 24 addicts....thoughts on last night's finale? I thought it was pretty good.

Some won't like the fact that they killed off a main character, but hey, the willingness to do just such a thing separates this writing staff from the rest of the garbage producers on network television.

The greatest scenes were obviously when Jack ambushed the Drazens and took out 7 heavily armed men in about 2 minutes (LOL), followed by Senator Palmer telling his wife (is there a more hated character on television??) to hit the bricks.

As with nearly all 24 episodes, I found myself exhaling only during commercial breaks!

The whole series depended on fumbling, incompetent people doing incredibly stupid things. I watched most of the episodes because my wife watched them. She was mad at me most of the time because of my comments. Toward the end she also was commenting on the silly situations these people managed to create for themselves.

I'd rather that they'd killed of his daughter instead of his wife.

The daughter was more irritating to me than the wife with her petty, pathetic little teenage do what I want when I want BS.

Senator Palmer telling his wife (is there a more hated character on television??) to hit the bricks.

And when Hillary Senator Palmer's wife tried to follow him, screaming all the way, with the Secret Service agents stopping her... I loved it! I loved Penny Johnson in "DS9," but she outdid her self in "24"

My wife and I religiously watched 24 the whole season, but missed the first half hour (I'm guessing where all the action was). I was very glad that Palmer told his hag wife to beat it...but I was in shock that Teri was killed. I have a very serious question...did Nina shoot Teri? I didn't think I saw her shoot, as the camera followed her out of the computer room and down the hall, and Teri was alive in the chair. If Nina didn't, that means someone else in the building shot Teri. Help me out here, we're dying because we missed the first half hour!

I couldn't care less about the plot irregularities, I don't believe in human spiders either.

I thought the show was excellent, as were all 23 preceding episodes.

I thought last night's episode was very good. Nina's transformation was frightening.

On the series as a whole. The first episodes were great. The show really worked when you didn't know what was going on or who to trust. The show dropped off significantly when Teri got amnesia (just plain silly). The second half of the series has its ups and downs. Some episodes were good, some not, but I was still hooked. I thought the second to last episode was very poor, but last night redeemed the show, and I will probably watch it again next year.

Teri Bauer passed out of this world

Are we sure she's dead? My impression was that we didn't know for sure, I thought that last seen left us kind of hanging in ambiguity.

[The G Man]

Last night was one of the most satisfying season finales I have ever seen. To kill off Jack's wife at the end was bold and unanticipated. I thought for sure we were going to see "same old same old" good guy beats bad guys and has a happy family reunion at the end. ENNNNHHH!!! Guess again.

I too kind of wish the daughter got "offed" also. But I guess you can't have everything.

Can't wait for reruns so I can go back and pick up on various things.

I've enjoyed the series. I was wondering about the how and the what of the plot for next season would be. I'd like to see if Palmer wins the WH and how is wife tries to derail that. The story of who is behind it all should be interesting too.

[Sci Fi Guy]

I liked how last night ended. I thought that it was good that the show didn't conclude with a last second rescue, like so many bad tv shows do. I didn't like that Jack was the one who captured Nina, or that when they got the good news they seemed to forget about Terri. (They seemed to let her roam around a top secret office.) It would have been better if Nina didn't get out of the bldg, and Jack confronted her in detention.

I was disappointed with how the show presented Palmer's wife. The show never developed her as a person. Either Palmer was living with this horrible witch for decades and never knew it. Or he just decided to end a decades old marriage, because of one bad day. If they are going to give her character so much air time then they should have tried to show a more complete character.

[Sci Fi Guy]

Early in the season, I read an article that suggested that Nina would turn out to be a Bad guy because she didn't use an Apple laptop. It seems that on most tv shows and movies today the good guys use apple and the villians use other brands.

How can you people even WATCH this thing??

I could only take about three minutes of the veritgo, nausea inducing camera cuts, zooms, smears and what ever else the acid imbibing director insisted on using, before bailing big time!

I also cannot stand the opening of LENO's show. It may be just me, but all that 'MOTION' in the video gives me a headache that lasts for hours if I watch it. I will turn away until the monolog starts.
