The good: They actually have something for Chloe to do! And NYC? Awesome.
Sounds like they're trying to do a "smaller" story.
The bad: the political aspect. Ugh. The UN BUILDING as a major setting? UGH!
Also, this treaty sounds verrrrry similar to the Presidential storyline from season 5. President Logan was going to sign a treaty with the Russian President and terrorists wanted to stop it before it happened.
We've watched and enjoyed each season up to this years.
Stopped watching it about 12 hours into it.
Worthless.
Jack is still alive? Nobody saw that coming.
;-)
They really thought Hillary was going to be POTUS when they wrote this season’s episodes. Of course, they’d already had the black Prez...
Spoiler! We now know that Jack Bauer doesn’t die from the bio agent.
Agree ... 24 had its “last season” at our house about half way through this season. Head butts and lib greenie talks were enough for me. Also this show is about 50% commercials. No great loss.
I think it was pretty obvious that Jack was going to survive, given it was not the last season. That’s why the story didn’t work as well as it could have. When George Mason and Gael got sick, we actually knew they were going to die!
Next year last year??
Ping
I think 24 has gone downhill in recent years. Their best stretches of episodes were in the first three seasons IMO.
1. Season 1: episodes 1-13: Jack’s wife and daughter being kidnapped by the charismatic villain Ira Gaines. Jack rescuing them.
2. Season 2: episodes 1-15: the nuke and George Mason’s heroic sacrifice.
3. Season 3: episodes 15-24: A virus is released in the Chandler Plaza Hotel and Michelle’s life is in danger. Jack is forced to kill Chapppelle, Tony lets Saunders escape, etc.
The other seasons have had great episodes, but none of them had a 10-15 episode run like that!
Ohhhh...That's why I can't stand her.
Nope, I'm convinced Man-Made Global Warming will the next threat to America and Mankind.
“Producers are undecided at this time if the president’s estranged husband and daughter will return. “Both family members are waiting to hear how they might be employed,” says Jones.”
This seems to be a leak as to what will happen in the final episodes of season 7 tonight, because so far the President’s husband - who has spend most of Season 7 as a crime victim in the hospital - has not been “estranged” (the daughter has been working her way back to estranged status these past few episodes.) Months ago, I predicted that Henry Taylor (I think that’s his name), the first husband, would turn out to be a mole (meaning a foreign or terrorist agent, not a rodent.)
If it turns out I’m right tonight I expect full credit (and if I’m wrong, I expect you all to forget about it.)
The linked story says the season finale is “Sunday”. I checked TVGuide, and there is no “24” tonight. But it does show up for Monday.
Gee, ya’d think a person writing about Jack Bauer would get the day right...for their own personal safety, of course. William Keck, prepare to meet Jack Bauer!
I doubt that Global Warming will destroy the world before next season; 24 has done a great job publicizing the threat we all are under with this /end sarcasm
Yeah, but we all liked him!
Loved Nina (as a bad person) and enjoyed her coming back in season three.
Lot's and lots more to say, but do not want to be a spoiler to anyone who has not seen the early seasons.
Happy Sunday!
Might be why ratings are down this year...
24 is over, the libs have taken over the show. American defense contractors are the terrorists, please. The whole season is a referendem on torture, and none of it involves Garofalo, grr. They should just have Jack join Greenpeace and get it over.
