"Couldn't she have just gone away quietly? She thought Jack was dead, leave her alone and let her mourn. Plus, I don't like her character."
Not only did she lose Jack, don't forget she lost her husband too. In truth I think Jack had more chemistry with the Mexican chick. Didn't hurt that she was hotter than any woman they've had on the show.
Hair, OX, and anyone else who wants to answer: How dumb are most of the women on 24? Were I a female actress on the show, I'd demand that they gave my character a brain. Terri was stupid, Kate Warner (creator of what I call the "Kate Warner Face" where you are horrified and confused at the same time) kept going after her sister even after she found out she was a terrorist, Audrey never listened to Jack or her father, and don't get me started on Kim. What's with these chicks?
Well lets look at the current president character on the show. I think it realisticly shows how the Peter Principle comes into play.
Well, you failed to mention, in your "most of the women of '24' the two best smart female characters, Nina and Michelle. Michelle is sharp, and a cutie pie, and Nina... well Nina was Nina.
I agree on Terri, all I can think is maybe Jack just thought his life was so high adrenaline, he needed a wife who provided ~zero~ stimulation at all just to be able to relax at night ;~D Course, then she ended up being the source of stress anyway.
I cut Kate Warner's character a lot of slack. I liked her. You say she went on and on after her sister, but the truth is, she had everything she thought was true become false in just a few hours. It's not every day our whole universe turns upside down, unless you're Jack.
How dumb are most of the women on 24?
LOL. Your commentary is exactly right. I've thought the exact same thing about all of the women. The only exception were the evil women; ie. Mrs. Palmer and last year's terrorist mom. They at least were intelligent, just evil.
Well, Todd, someone has to be the wall for Jack to rebound off of. The chick characters---except for the occasional terrorist---just exist to give Sutherland a rare opportunity to emote something besides rage.
