Not the way you do. 24 IS entertainment. It's not meant to reflect your personal feelings on every subject. And why do you even care, dirtboy? Didn't you proclaim last year that you would never watch the show again?
Amen! Thank you :)
I'm eager to see what she does :)
His point is that it's ENTERTAINMENT and not reality. Brokeback is PROPOGANDA.
The next time I watch a rerun of "Dukes of Hazzard" I'll pay close attention to Boss Hogg's politics--I suspect he was a liberal < /sarc>
Saved that :)
Excuse me, I'm of the female persuasion, and I would certainly prefer blood and guts, scissors in the neck, etc, all over to Audrey...
I did like Kate Warner, and the Mexican druglord's squeeze who got iced a few seasons back, butI didn't even much like Jack's wife Terry who got killed more than a few seasons back.
I thought the episode on Monday night was GREAT! Especially the part where Walt is getting pummeled by Jack. :)
Didn't Rush say he had dinner with one of the producers around Thanksgiving and they said europeans watch it to see the US attacked? I thought that was probably close to the truth.
Only idiots get their politics from a TV drama. LOL
I could do without the Audrey stuff too. But the redhead that Jack was shacked up with doesn't seem to have much going on either.
That is funny. My wife and I watch the show and when Audrey goes into her little tear jerk scene my wife is hollering at the TV, "Shut up you silly ***** and let Jack go kick some ass!"
I had to laugh, usually I'm the idiot yelling at the TV.
No Kidding! ugh. "President Logan" makes my skin crawl. I kept hoping his wife would stomp his foot. But she didn't. He sure had a foot-stomp due him, IMHO. But maybe.. she can divorce him. But she won't. She married a coward and that's what she now knows, and has to think about.
And I thought Kate was great, too :)
I'm with you! Audreys whining on the phone irritated me. What woman wants to hear that?! But I LOVED Jack thumping on Walt! I cheered. LOL
Dittohead ping - (and "24" spoiler alert). I haven't seen this season yet - all on TiVO, so I can't read it! :-(
Yeah I heard that too and I don't doubt it. Leave it to Europeans to find perverse pleasure in something :)

It's not Walt Cummings who looks like Nixon. It's the President. And you gotta admit, he DOES look like Nixon. I was getting a whole Nixonian vibe off of him every time I saw him.
Part of what hooked me on Soprano's I figured out was Tony's mom, "Livia". She was such a vile, emotive character. It was, however, a winning combination and I think "24" has figured that out. Each season... there's a "Livia" character. First it was Jack's wife, then President Palmer's wife, and now.. a split between Audrey and President Logan. Walt? He's just someone you want hit hard. But the "emotive" icky characters? You wanna see 'em broken.
Re-read the sentence One of the moles in this season is this goofy Richard Nixon look-a-like’s chief of staff, guy named Walt Cummings.
He's not saying the chief of staff is a Nixon look a like, he's saying that POTUS Logan is the Nixon look a like.
