I am one of those people that have been a loyal "24" follower from the very first season. However, after Sutherland's political agenda being exploited I vowed to no longer watch this garbage. I was SO upset, I did not finish watching the rest of the show. Keifer, UP YOURS!!!

Hey, nothing wrong if they have taken measures not to waste energy. The biggest problem is the show has jumped the shark. The story has just gotten ridiculous. I can’t believe Al Sharpton hasn’t complained that the terrorists are black.

People come on its a TV show.... meaning don't take it seriously and don't care about the political leanings of the actors (which 95% of them are hardcore left). So just sit back and enjoy watching jack kick the living hell out of some terrorists

Yikes. They obviously don’t know who their audience is. I’ve never watched the show, but even I know they have a large conservative audience, and that a lot of conservatives love Jack Bauer.

Oh wow. You missed a fantastic ending.

I can't wait for next week's episode.

Is Jack going to use biodegradeable bullets when he shoots people in the thigh?

I didn’t realize Garafalo (or however you spell her name) was on the show (which shows, apparently, how often I watch it). I had it on last night for the first time in a long time - when she showed up on screen, I switched to Sponge Bob.

I’ve watched since the show started in 2001. Best show on TV. But notice how in the first year since the departure of Joel Surnow, the Conservative creator of the show (who is still a producer but no longer involved in daily production and writing), the show has taken its idiotic PC twist this season. Although I am not up-to-date on the series (I haven’t watched last night’s ep), I am getting sick and tired of Renee and her PC whining! I just wish Jack would put a bullet in her and move on! ;-D

No, not climate change. He said ‘climate problem’.

The one message that comes through this season is that torture works. Look how quickly the President caved when presented with just the THREAT of torture.

I saw that too. It’s very disconcerting how ignorant many people are on this issue. Sutherland has always been a lib though. I thought most people knew this...

24 WAS AWESOME; the Mountain Dew Commercial upset me. I even sent a note to PEPSICO—Abraham Lincoln ripping off his suit to wrestle Douglas, what are these people thinking/smoking? Is nothing sacred anymore?

the plot is more ridiculous than other 24 seasons....but the
pro-torture message is strong and good.

I think the green thing is just a ploy to take heat away from the torture thing.

I don't know if I would be rooting for the Jack Bauer side if the current POS resident was locked in a safe room.

He has destroyed more wealth in just over a month, just to push his Bolshevik agenda, than anything I could have ever imagined.

I’ve been a loyal 24 watcher for at least the last 4 seasons and the ones I missed I watched on DVD. But this year the show is just boring. The story-line is absurd. Garafalo is a joke. Jack isn’t Jack. I want to the old Jack back. I want CTU back. This year is lost. Hopefully they will learn their lesson and we will get back to the good times next year. I’m hopeful but certainly not confident.

Before the actor's strike and before Keifer had to do his stint in the joint there was a few stories in the press about the 24 production going “green”, they even alluded that the plotline for that season was to have a “green” message.
I had been wondering what had happened, obviously things changed with the strike and all, but the lil’ PSA last nite came as no surprize to me.

It was not the show that was disturbing or “PC”, it was the fact that they threw in their Political agenda (climate change) in between commercials....like we don’t hear enough of this from the MSM!!

Did you see “Jack” sitting on his chair like a politician campaigning (this was not part of the series, just a political commercial) about climate change...BARF!

Everytime you watch 24, you make Janeane Garophallus, the gnome who calls for our imprisonment because we are biologically inferior to her, a bit richer.

I can do without this kind of "entertainment".

Now they push Gorebull warming.

Dump 24.
