Chloe didn't get to shoot anything either. Darn.
Hmmm... I didn't even think about that, I was so entranced watching him beat the ever-loving cr@p outta Walt.
It's noon - maybe she went to lunch.
BTW, wbat's IBTZ anyway? Is that kinda like "stuned" or "beeber" or what?
Am I the only one that caught that about oil? WOT is all about oil (anybody catch that?). Has anybody figured out where this is going, or where it came from? My position is that the show is utterly anti-Bush/admin. Everything that's gone on so far is because of some stupid president and what else?
Lets count how pro-Bush the show is and has been:
You lose. Where's my peanuts? GIVE. Now.
And there was some kind of additional non-Muslim faction behind them.
stop forcing the show into some kind of Myopic predictability
Oh, I'm not asking every storyline to involve Muslims. But they haven't done it once. But I'm SURE it has NOTHING do to with liberal attitudes towards the WOT.
I watched them over the summer, it was a primary debate. :) Logan of course is a democrat. What else could he be? :)
LOL We did exactly the same! Mrs. Slowboat and I were cheering when Jack started pounding on Walt, and then when Logan said it was too late, and that Walt didn't know anything more, Jack didn't even say anything, just tore into him again. Very cathartic.
As for the perceived slight - jeez, we're talking about a character who was cynical enough to believe that it was all about oil, and that the POTUS wanted some shifty means of proving that WMD were out there to justify a military buildup. This was the BAD GUY. The guy whose heart Jack was pounding on with his fist. In my mind, it's more a reflection on the people who are cynical enough to think that the WOT is about oil and deceiving the people for personal gain.
Believe he's packed on a few pounds since this photo?
Audrey reminds me of Kerry's daughters. Something about the shape of her face.
Season 2 and 4 were exclusively Muslims. The side characters and traitors trying to profit from their actions were irrelevant.
They've done it so often it's almost predictable. I for one am excited to see who these bad guys are.
Your knee jerking is blinding you.
Sorry, but last season there were corporate types behind the terrorists, as I recall.
It's never just Muslims on 24.
I just watched it last weekend. Marwan (appropriately Muslim just for you) is in charge. ALL his major players are also appropriately Muslim.
Read it yourself, if you think it proves anything either way.

The Chinese get involved over one Chinese national, an engineer or something... who helped Marwan.
You know... forget it. This is a silly debate. It's fiction, and entertaining fiction at that. It's intent is to be fast, suspenseful and surprising. I'm not going to let you ruin it by turning entertainment into some litmus test for your approved politics. I'm not sure your approved politics would make a real successful show for 5 very exciting seasons.
I don't care what you think.
BZZZZT! Wrong, try again.
The terrorist (Habib Marwan) was a Muslim, as were his chief associates, the Araz family. The only "corporate type" in season 4 was the defense contractor, McLennan-Forster, were Marwan worked under an alias for a few years. Marwan stole the nuke plant override device from them. But they were not "behind" Marwan, he duped and used them to get what he needed to carry out his plot.

I read the 24 thread last year....yes there really are some who believe there is an agenda going on with 24:) Sad.
