I've never, that I can recall, ever posted a vanity post, so forgive me on this one.

My mom likes coffee so we went to Starbucks-once.Haven't been back since. (Too much "ambience" for me...I guess that's what you pay for).
Talk about overrated and overpriced!! Sheesh. I'd rather go to Dunkin'Donuts or a convenience store like WaWa or Sheetz.Not only is the coffee better,it's a damn sight cheaper.

I haven’t watched all the seasons. Three I think. Has there ever been a time when the bad guys weren’t white power hungry men? Like I said, I missed a few seasons.

I’m more annoyed by that tree hugger PSA Chloe gave at the end of an episode. Barf.

They're giving them every episode. To quote a famous conservative author: Shut up and sing.

I quit watching pretty much when that face turned up on the show and tried her hand at acting. It was so bad we just quit watching. She is a horrible actress and the fact that they hired her for the show just showed me they were no longer interested in my viewer-ship given her bad acting and her hate filled ranting and babbling off the show. Now I can see possibly taking the risk with a talented and distinct actor or actress as they may really bring something. But she just took a lot away on the show and off course she is highly offensive and I will not spend a dime on that POS.

No...I’ll just wait for her to get killed of by Chloe and cheer for that.

I don't watch the show but the hubster's hooked. Goo-ralph-a-go's performance is so stellar he didn't even realize she played on the show. When I told him she did,he just shrugged and said "Oh well...I like the show anyway!" LOL
Re your comment about cheering....they should be swamped with emails praising Chloe for doing us all a favor!

Speaking of coffee...have you tried the new McDonald’s iced coffee? I’m not much of a coffee drinker, but it’s great. And cheap! :o)

My reaction entirely. Several time jumps that are inconsistent with the premise of the show (I watched about 5 or 6 episodes before getting so fed up I just walked away).

Chloe is just about as Liberal as Guffawlo the Troll in real life...so is Sutherland.

The Producers will keep her around simply to embarrass her.

She does it for the dough, and everyone knows she is an ignorant left wing zealot.

would anyone consider boycotting 24 to show our disgust? Big decision!

Not me dude, I like my nose right where it is! I'm watching it in anticipation of Chloe blasting Garafalo's head off with an M-16 or other such instrument of human destruction.........

You want to give up 24 and miss seeing that happen????????

Is there a summary of this season?

Yes, there's a "24" thread going on right now. It's over 7,000 posts long so if you start reading now you might be able to catch up in May.........LOL!

It’s easy for me to boycott something i have never watched...i plan on renting it by the season some time in the future, when i have the time....i’ve been told it’s a pretty good show.

My wife and I used to love 24, but suffered through the last two seasons. This year we couldn’t make it past episode four. All the improvements they promised have escaped our notice, short of leaving LA(finally).

Ms. Barfalo is the rotten cherry on top. A show with awesome potential has languished, in part due to lazy repetitive writing and cynical casting.

This is the best I could offer. You're probably already aware of it tho.......:

I’m boycotting because I’m tired of being jerked around by the Bad Tony, Good Tony business.

My daughter loaned me the DVD collection of the first 3 seasons. It took me months to get through the Series.

There is definitely a pattern to the show.

The bad guys in the beginning are not the real bad guys behind the real secret bad stuff.

Someone you do not expect to get killed, will be killed.

Jack has no boundaries, and is capable of killing any other character at any given moment, except for the President.

The Government (and all Gov’t organizations ) is/are run by imbeciles who should be killed.

All terrorist activities in the USA are centered in Los Angeles.
