Good drama requires plausibility. Dangerous terrorists that need to be stopped with 24 hours to go - plausible. Most of the first season - implausible. I believe in the end the woman who helped Jack throughout the season was actually an evil plant - so why didn’t she help her employers instead of Jack?

Answer: if she had moved a finger to help her employers in the first half of the season, there would have been no surprise when she was revealed as a bad person.

False suspense, false surprise. Low quality.

I'm sorry. I can't think of a response as I'm laughing too hard.

Ok. Um plausible. You mean like James Bond? The Diehard movies? Rambo? THAT kind of plausible?

You're allowed an opinion. You didn't like it even if you saw very little of it. I'm just wondering why you're on the thread if you're not a fan.
