Man Hnads and Jack Bauer will come to blows. again.
Are you the one who said “If the Government would let Jack do things his way, the show would be called ‘12’?”
;) :)
24 has such brilliant writers. When things start to slow down a little bit, you KNOW this is coming but it still takes you by surprise. I love it!

He sure made things rough on the blonde amazon tonight. Whoa!
Jack so much reminds me of myself. Guess that’s why I like it...
Man Hnads and Jack Bauer will come to blows. again.
just sayin'...
Hey, SD. Weigh in, will ya?
Outstanding show tonight, and right on time after the “78% of Americans don’t trust government” poll. President Taylor, held by Jack to be beyond reproach—sells him and the truth out for the sake of her own vanity, at the desperate urgings of a disgraced ex-Prez. This is not going to end well, nor should it. I hope Jack turns the world upside down in the final 6 episodes. Great season. (Still pissed at them killing Renee though. Fantastic character)
We watch Jack on TIVO tuesday nights, no ads.
We always run last weeks show to remind ourselves how tonight will shape up.
So sad that Jack finally got involved with his beautiful partner - name escapes me - only to see her blasted away in the window of his apartment! What a beauty!
I had always thought that 24 of a few years ago was setting us up to accept a first black President, (aka Colin Powell) then a female President (aka Hillary), but their march has moved on.
What will 24 fans do next year??? Sure hope that there’s a replacement!
Kinda nice to see 24 back to the Jack-against-the-world routine. Its the way the show started, and it is a fitting way for the show to go out.
It is actually kind of impressive that they found such an organic and clever way to get EVERYONE against him ... including longtime allies. Putting Chloe in charge of CTU (and thus personally responsible for the outcome) was a stroke of brilliance. No matter how much she likes Jack, it isn’t quite as easy to disobey the President when she’s looked you in the eye and given you a direct order.
Its also nice to see Jack back to his rebellious roots — i.e. instead of chastizing the commando team leader (that helped save NY by turning over Hassan) for disobeying his President, now he’s disobeying her himself.
There appears to be a very conservative message building for the final 6 hours ... peace treaties are just pieces of paper. The bad guys are still the bad guys.

But as my wife so astutely observed, Chloe could never betray Jack, so when she called him on the radio as he was taking off in the helicopter, she slyly let him know what to be watching out for when she told him she'd have to send the air interceptor jets after him, so now he knows what to expect and can plan for his escape from them. Chloe is such a loyal babe! - OB1
