**If you TiVo there are Spoilers**
Who are you and what have you done with Jack Bauer? That’s what I wanted to scream at the pod person who starred on “24” last Monday. When the conservative creators of the show left and liberals took over, I was apprehensive. But by and large, the quality of the program kept up. I snorted, of course, when a bad character was threatened with torture by other bad guys. She was hauled into a medieval chamber filled with pincers, hot pokers and iron maidens. Then she was strapped down, a washcloth was draped over her mouth… and she was water boarded. Oy. Then, a week ago, Jack murdered her in cold blood, not to get information… she’d already been terrified into offering up the info… but just because he felt like it.
What?!

Saudi partial ownership of Fox killed Jack Bauer and the other networks are even worse.
I haven’t been watching the show but I suspect the fat guy did something very very naughty to earn that gutting.
exactly right.
The lefties destroyed the show.
I haven’t watched in a couple of years.
Whatever you do, don’t swallow a SIMs card.
And Don’t Screw with Jack
It was necessary to kill her for the story to progress.
Screw Jack Bauer . . . I want to know his cell phone provider.
Can’t wait to see what happens to Logan when Bauer gets to him next week. “All due respect Mr. President but.....”
The author (Orson Bean, something of an American institution if you ask me) is pointing out that once the Left got their hands on Jack Bauer, they turned him into this cartoon character who tortures and kills for fun; he has become the Left’s caricature of conservatives and the military.
Now, genius, what exactly is idiotic about that?
Right after the conservative, right-wing producer of the show left 24, I left as well.
Same thing with NCIS. Belissario has been ousted and replaced by anti-Palin lib writers on the show. I’ve never watched again..
This has turned into the best season yet. My son and I stood up with our fists in the air and applauded when Jack killed the murderous Dana/Jenny. And this week we cheered when Jack got out the pliers and blowtorch on that Russian assassin who killed Renee Walker.
This season has become “Jack unleashed”, and it’s about time.
Cartoon character? Fun?
He's pixxed and TCB'en.
Atta boy, Jack.
Was this the Lib writer’s own fantasy of what they want to do to all of America? Bizarre!
;o) That was pretty brutal.
Jack loves his country. Jack regrets. Jack loathes, Jack acts on vengence, Jack questions himself, Jack kills. Jack (gasp) cries. All this "lib vs. conservative" crap is nothing but he-man b.s. The writers, no matter their political persuasion, do a masterful job of showing all the angles. Neither side likes that, of course. We're so used to everyone being pigeon-holed, we've forgotten there can be actually be "two sides to the coin." Necessary evils, as it were.
Jack Bauer is still the man I want between me & the commie crapola, TYVM. Unless anyone has a better alternative...?
Excuse me but I am am a relative recent viewer but who was that and when did they leave?
