This is the first season I've watched this show. The first several episodes were very good. But now, it's really become preposterous. Jack Bauer, the savior of mankind, has been in something like 10 gunfights and physical altercations in the course of 14 hours. I mean, doesn't he need a shower or something? But the thing that aggravates me the most about this show is the fact that the country is under nuclear threat, already town have been destroyed, and you're telling me that the CTU agents would stop to talk about their personal lives? Everytime Audrey starts folding her arms and whining I want to jump through the screen and kill her!! COME ON. If this is an indication as to how are CTU works here, I'M MOVING!!!!

That's just the way 24 is. You have to suspend believability sometimes to enjoy it. After all, it's only a TV show, not a documentary.

I agree that the love-story stuff is preposterous, but other than that I like the show enough to record it. I watched a few episodes last year, but they kept jumping from one cliff-hanger to the next and never resolved anything, so I got bored and quit watching. This year I've followed it so far, and they haven't lost my interest yet. 24 and The Shield are my 2 favorite shows. In fact, the only other show I watch is Lost, and I'm getting burned out on all the re-runs and unexplained happenings.

If this show were reality the U.S.A. would have been placed under martial law around 8pm.
