I hate to say this about the new season of 24, but...

Aside from the first ten minutes of the first episode, it's kinda been dullsville.

All the interesting characters have been killed off, and I'm tired of the interchangeable/disposable love interest with helpless pubescent moppet offspring who seem to pop up every season.

Plus, I have a feeling Chloe is gonna bite the big one this season. sigh

Anyone else less-than-plussed by the new season of the Jack Bauer Power Hour?

Vince Flynn, the author who the series owes a lot to, who is now a consultant for the show said months ago on a radio interview that when he showed up for the initial meetings he was told that a bunch of the characters agents got too greedy so they decided to have a bloodbath in the first bunch of episodes so the deaths may continue.

Good. Then waiting for the DVD release won't be so painful.

they usually drop a fairly significant bombshell every few episodes, just to make sure the viewers are still awake...i don't know what they could do tonight. maybe bring kim back and chain her to a rock and have coyotes circling her again? lol

I enjoyed the first 4 hours as I always do. But I am miffed at some things...

1) we are already on Plot number 2

2) "He has a daughter?" the kid asked. Alluding to kim. Alluding to they are gonna get to Kim to get to Jack. Yay sigh And lookee she's slated for guest appearances. nod

3) No one is shocked Jack is back. Um wait til the Chinese find out.


I have to say I do like that it's not completely a terrorist thingy, and that "this time, it's personal". But the same devices and plots are getting used. I'll watch it tonight.
