Official 24 Discussion (Greatest Show Ever)

[Mel4AU]

this episode was so awesome, imho. the best yet, perhaps

[Crumbo]

Thumbprint... Just have Jack lop-off the dead guy's thumb. He's done it before. :D

:24


my thoughts exactly!

a very good but very predictable episode....I was calling stuff way before it was going to happen :shrug

[Mel4AU]

my thoughts exactly!

a very good but very predictable episode....I was calling stuff way before it was going to happen :shrug

maybe it's cause i'm a 24 n00b, but i totally wasn't expecting any of it. esp aisha getting killed. ew and her eyes stayed open. ooh, and behrooz killing papa momar. i thought he was about to kill tony too and i got scared...
anyway, good episode!! but the whole aisha altercation could have been avoided by chopping the thumb off - bugged me the entire time.

[Crumbo]

Max???

haven't we've seen Max???

I don't think he looks like that....then again I'm sure terrorists have access to the best plastic surgeons money can buy :lol

[Crumbo]

ummm....Mel....you might want to familiarize yourself with the spoiler tag :)

[Mel4AU]

wuh??? am i not supposed to say that??
SORRY!!!!

[boiii]

they cant cut off the guys thumb for fingerprints.
most fingerprint readers check for a pulse/warmth/etc to validate that it hasn't been chopped off.

cheers.
ken

[Mel4AU]

ohhhh, that explains it.
erm, how do i do a spoiler??

[caudio51]

"I think she may be a sociopath"
"what, are you a psychiatrist?" or whatever he said
"no, but i stayed at a holiday inn express last night"
:lol :lol

[Tak_a_Tak]

Too damn funny, that is the same thing I thought when he said that. That, my friend, is some good freak'n marketing!!

[Mel4AU]

But if hes dead anyways, theres no pulse, and after a short while the warmth would go too.

[Mel4AU]

"damn, bauer - you just shot behrooz!"
"it's okay. i had subway for lunch"

seriously - how do you make spoilers?

[Crumbo]

ohhhh, that explains it.
erm, how do i do a spoiler??

:thumbsup i'm favorite placing that sumbitch.

thanks.

[Tak_a_Tak]

:lol
spoilers suck..............that's great.

[Marshall J]

curtis went out like a little bitch. and that security team sucked. what were they doing? having butt sex? cause they sure as hell werent looking out for short, ugly, bearded shit heads. and if i was curtis, id have 2 glocks, locked and loaded, safety off, fingers inside the gaurd.

[boiii]

im missing the point of your post.
because that was the point of my post.

cheers.
ken

[JimiThang1]

Good episode tonight...now we have two enemies (possibly 3) to see how they are working together with each other.

[Wildmoose31]

im missing the point of your post.
because that was the point of my post.

cheers.
ken
My bad, I thought you had meant that they just couldnt cut the one dead guys finger off because fingerprint scanners would know it wasnt real since it was without pulse/warmth. I didnt read back far enough

[killymagee2000]

Welcome back to CTU, Tony.

[mr.MikeD]

ctu needs to get some better guards. it never seems too difficult to sneak up and pop these guys.

[killymagee2000]

Um, I think CTU needs to do quite a few things, starting with better screening for prospective employees.

"what, are you a psychiatrist?" or whatever he said
"no, but i stayed at a holiday inn express last night"

im sorry but that saying made my night

[FPrefect61]

Hmmm, I think I'd take an hour of torture at my job if it meant a promotion and a 2 grade pay raise.

Damn man :lol But I agree two guns are better then one. :thumbsup

Hes not dead yet, So I dont count him as "out" and my hope is that he doesnt die :(

[Mel4AU]

did anyone else think of that friends episode where rachel gets the pay raise and the office then her boss dies?

[Mark]

no..

[Mel4AU]

just me then.

[Pipsqueak]

was it just me, or was the score for this episode incredible.....esp. when they were in the hidden bunker......

it put me on the edge of my seat...

[YknSTONE]

Yeah the hidden bunker was cool. I thought it was funny that Jack just hops on down down there. :lol Its like maybe he didnt think to think maybe someone might be down there?..:lol Hes just all in Bauer mode, I guess

:24

[Matt]

I know that it can seem like this "best-ever" talk can get repetitive, but in all seriousness, I've never heard music like this on any show, ever.

[Mark]

i loaned a friend of mine the s1 and s2 dvd's. he called me today asking when he could get a hold of s3. he said that he is officially a 24 junkie. :thumbsup

[fifel]

24 is starting to get like Star Trek. If you haven't seen the guy before and he has no name (applies for security detail last night) you can almost count on him/them getting killed. I saw that coming a as soon as they got into the office. Same thing happened when the team went with Jack and Audri to get the tape with Raines picture on it. That detail ended up getting killed as well.

Couldn't they just chop the guys finger off for a finger print match? They had to take the girl who was one of the only leads ATM and get her killed. What ever happened to compitent people running CTU.

Did anyone catch where the Sec. of Defense told Jack he could have whatever he needed to catch the terriost holding his son in the basement of the hospital. And than five minutes later the lady running CTU (can't remember her name) explains to the Sec. that Jack has a lead trapped in the hospital like the aforementioned conversation never took place.

All that being said. Still best show on TV.:)

can't do a thumb print scan from a lifeless thumb.

[Ben F.]

...because your fingerprints magically disappear right when you die? :confused

[bdb23]

...because your fingerprints magically disappear right when you die? :confused
Ken indicated earlier that it also scans for heat (which would disappear when you die). I think it's a little convenient, though.

[dmb1spe]

I just bought the first three seasons on Amazon for the price of 120. Hopefully it will be well worth it.

Say goodbye to your weekend. Once you watch one episode you will not be able to stop watching.

haha... I'm the same way when a new season of the The Shield comes out.

yeah..you'd think that the agents that are supposed to protect people would be trained to deal with opposition, ie, Curtiss and Marianne...how were those two agents with them jumped? It's not like they were doing anything..they were standing there! This isn't a video game!

[dobyblue]

I know that it can seem like this "best-ever" talk can get repetitive, but in all seriousness, I've never heard music like this on any show, ever.
I also can't help but mention a few times each season...

Sean Callery should be bronzed for his continued wizardry with the score throughout this show.

I'm tempted to watch an episode of "Medium" just to catch some of his other work. Callery can turn a fairly exciting scene into a pulse-raising, foot-tapping thriller.

[kmano8]

ctu needs to get some better guards. it never seems too difficult to sneak up and pop these guys.

i've been thinking the same thing. especially after season 2 when they let 3 random "technicians" walk freely around CTU. They asked for a bombing.

-karl

[kmano8]

Has anyone realized that Jack hasn't killed anyone in 2 hours? This just hit me.

-karl

[Trippin4136]

"theyre going with a security team"

every single time the guys on the team get killed without any doubt.

thank god the black woman mole (name slips my mind) is dead.

[asmjm39]

have any of you guys called the fan phone? I just did and talked to Joseph Hodges, the production designer. he was on set and said they were shooting a scent in the CTU basement(I think). I told hime how much we all loved the show and to keep up the good work.

[killymagee2000]

Has anyone realized that Jack hasn't killed anyone in 2 hours? This just hit me.

-karl

Yeah, I'm a little worried. His body count has stagnated.

C'mon Jack! Go Jack Bauer on peoples' asses :24

[JimiThang1]

have any of you guys called the fan phone?

Fan phone? Do explain?

[asmjm39]

remember when berhooz's girlfriend called him and the number flashed on the screen? the same number flashed up last week on someones cell. I called it and it said it was the 24 fanphone. I called back a few hours ago and spoke to the production designer. he was cool, Ill post the number later if you guys want it

[JimiThang1]

Hahaha no way. So it wasn't a 555 number like in every other TV show and movie?

[asmjm39]

nope, a real number, and of course I could not think of any cool questions to ask until after I got off the phone. I might call back another time, he said that no main cast was around at the time

[JimiThang1]

Wouldn't it be funny if Kiefer picked up the phone?

[asmjm39]

allegedly some people on the 24 boards have spoken with Kim Raver, but to talk to Jack himself, that would be too much

[JimiThang1]

Yea some crazy person might ask him to go take a hit on someone for them.

[Wildmoose31]

:lol its a really cool idea to do that too

EDIT: not to ask jack to take someone out, to show a phone # like that

[killymagee2000]

Its funny 'cause its true.

No... you were right the first time.

[davehead34]

Umm... :zips up flameproof bodysuit: I'm probably going to get killed for this, but I don't think that 24 is the best show ever. I think the Simpsons is. :shrug

You're entitled to your opinion, man. You won't get much backing in this thread (and I'm not sure why you waltzed in here just to say that), but no one is going to flame you.

of course he doesn't like 24...he's Chase....he has no job and only 1 hand now :lol

[davehead34]

of course he doesn't like 24...he's Chase....he has no job and only 1 hand now :lol

:lol Alright! Who brought the cool guy!? Cuz they're leaving with him! :lol Just kiddin man. I'm totally 100% bored out of my mind right now and I was actually wondering why no one really talks about the Simpsons anymore, so I figured I just bring it up. I actually figured I'd be martyred for my last post ;)

Seriously, though, 24 is a wicked badass show. I haven't seen it since I've been in the Marines, though cuz I can't afford fucking cable TV (yeah, it's $40 on base...*ripoff*). I watched the entire first and second season and plan on buy the rest of the seasons... but I have to wait till I get my DMB tickets first ;)

[Tak_a_Tak]

Umm... :zips up flameproof bodysuit: I'm probably going to get killed for this, but I don't think that 24 is the best show ever. I think the Simpsons is. :shrug


I'm happy for you that you've found your show. This is our show. I don't think I've watched the Simpsons in about 10 years.

Do you need cable on base to watch the fox network? Can't you pick it up with a set of rabbit ears or something?

I definitly wanna see Curtis kick some serious ass tonight, but he'll probably get killed off or something

[Ben F.]

Amazingly enough, I have managed to make it 6 and a half days without seeing a single 24 teaser :thumbsup

My roommate and I were discussing the Curtis situation; my roommate seems to think he's talked the tough talk but won't be able to back it up under pressure. I think he'll step up and be able to keep quiet, or come out on top somehow.

Oh, and (Mr.) Heller said they were bringing someone in to help with the work load; I'm feeling a Michelle appearance...

[il bacio dolce]

Amazingly, a girl I know who watches Sex & the City religiously, also likes 24. Though she says you can't start midepisode or even midseason and expect to understand it.

[Mel4AU]

^ i'm the same way! i love sex and the city! :rolleyes

[dmbsatx]

Oh, and (Mr.) Heller said they were bringing someone in to help with the work load; I'm feeling a Michelle appearance...

That would be NICE. It makes sense with Tony being reinstated and all. Nothing like an ex-lover's quarrel to spice things up around CTU.

i'd let jack bauer have his way with me. :evil

Ha ha ha. I don't think that when people say "I'm going to go Jack Bauer on your ass" that's what they have in mind.

[fifel]

Interesting theory. I think it will be Chloe.

[killymagee2000]

Interesting theory. I think it will be Chloe.

I'm inclined to agree.

[fifel]

Rumor also has it that Palmer will make an appearance late in the season as well.

[mr.MikeD]

when kieffer was on leno he said that palmer would be back some point in the season, so there's a good chance that he will be

[Ben F.]

Rumor also has it <potential spoiler edited>
I would consider this a spoiler, and would appreciate it if in the future you want to make a comment about something that hasn't happened yet, please put spoiler tags around it. This way people who don't want to know things like that can avoid reading it.

Completely my fault. I will use the tags from now on. But one question. How is that statement any different than guessing on who Heller might be brining in to help? Just wondering what is to be considered speculation and what is considered a spoiler?

[mr.MikeD]

if it's based on you watching this and previous seasons, and you think it might happen, then it's all good, just throwing ideas out there. If it's a rumor that's actually based on something and is very likely to happen, it kind of ruins it. If you're just guessing, and it turns out that you were right, then good on you. If you somehow know it's going to happen, not so good. Subtle difference, and maybe a pointless one, but then you're talking to people who make a point to not watch the "next week on" and change the channel if an ad comes on (this includes me)

I wouldn't worry about this 'spoiler', it's been floated around here already, but you just gotta be careful.

:thumbsup Sorry my reaction wasn't very clear. Mike summed it up well.

My guess on Heller was just a guess going on what has happened in the past episodes- I haven't seen or read anything that might suggest Michelle's appearance.

Your post just gave me the idea that you had read or heard something.

Does that make sense?

(and sorry if I sound bitchy, I like to go into every episode completely fresh :))

[bdb23]

Rumor also has it that <deleted> will make an appearance late in the season as well.

I'm going to stick up for fifel on this one- his slip wasn't that big, and he did ask for clarification - then apologized. Get off the computer and go turn it to Fox :24

I really hope tour dates don't come out in the next hour :lol

[DMBfan41]

T minus 6 minutes

[killymagee2000]

It is time.

[Gerginator]

well I'm glad Paul now realizes that Jack doesnt like bluffing....

[Wildmoose31]

nice to see curtis kick some ass

[DMBfan41]

Honestly, Bauer bluff? Never!

[Gerginator]

best line so far:

"i dont want to prove anything, i just dont want what im going to say to be recorded." and now, he's giving her the business

[karenvonb]

I really hope tour dates don't come out in the next hour :lol

:24


:lol :lol :lol

[DMBfan41]

Jack, never say "I'll Be Right Back!"

[dmb1spe]

oooooo... I hope this gets messy. And by "messy" I mean JAck and Curtis blowing the shit out of lots of people and/or things.

[dmb1spe]

I know everytime I need to get through a key coded door someone always walks out of it. :)

[DMBfan41]

This is gonna be an awesome 10 minutes!

[dmb1spe]

Might be the best ten minutes of my week. I don't know if that's saying something extraordinary about 24 or something extraordinarily awful about my life. ;)

[dmb1spe]

Wow... simply wow. Best hour I've spent in a while.

[taphntm]

wow, I started to watch it a couple of weeks ago. It's a good thing yall talk about it

[kmano8]

uh oh.

Good for you Ben. This is the same spoiler which Matt thought was a big deal a couple weeks back.

[Crumbo]

great episode....the music was outstanding!

[bdb23]

Awesome episode. Great cinematography during the elevator ride up for Bauer and the other agents to meet Curtis.

[dmb1spe]

Good point brian... this show never ceases to wow me.

[brendangen412]

That WAs AWESOME

[taphntm]

how could those meds be so stupid? what was that girl about anyway was she just supposed to be a distraction to her mom?

[bdb23]

Oh yeah, before I forget...

CURTIS IS A BAD ASS!!!! He took them out Bauer-style.

[bdb23]

how could those meds be so stupid? what was that girl about anyway was she just supposed to be a distraction to her mom?
I gets Driscoll distracted and ultimately replaced if Heller gets wind. That's what she was about.

[joepsu0985]

That was a great show.....Curtis did em dirty...What was that thing in the preview?

[joepsu0985]

It is also interesting how maybe the terrorists have a tie to audrey and her father through her husband.

[Crumbo]

broken neck anyone :lol

snap, crackel and pop

[Crumbo]

is there a way to have the spoiler tag required for this thread only

:BANG

[Ben F.]

The death of Driscoll's daughter is going to get Driscoll out (and I think, Michelle in).
Props to Curtis for stepping up in a huge way this hour.
Audrey and her husband - that BS in the car- were they trying to string us along (add drama), or were they planting the seed for Jack and Audrey's break up (which would be more 24-esque).
I hated to see that CTU agent in the stairs get 3 in the abdomen.

A strong episode to say the least.

[bdb23]

Aw c'mon. Some people would think it's nothing big. :D ;)

I think we should all post with spoiler tags only. Click at your own risk.

I don't know why and don't take this as a spoiler or anything but something just doesn't sit right with me and Audrey.

ew, yeah. and what about the other guy was literally smokin!? :freak awesome.

[dmb1spe]

Could Audrey and Paul be in cahoots(?).


I think that's a very real possibility. My guess... she's pissed about how her father treats her brother

[Crumbo]

I think we should all post with spoiler tags only. Click at your own risk.


that's exactly what I'm saying

too many details being shared

opinions or predictions based on what you have seen on the show (not read about that's going to happen in the future) is fine

*here comes: well don't read this thread then* :lol

[Mel4AU]

I think that's a very real possibility. My guess... she's pissed about how her father treats her brother

does she know this?

[Ben F.]

Could Audrey and Paul be in cahoots(?).
I don't think so. Paul was pretty vehement when Audrey was insinuating he had something to hide in the hotel room right before Jack broke in. Paul had no idea Jack was on his way, so he had no reason to act up (that is, unless Audrey told him).

Shit. They've been questioning Heller's son, and now Audrey's husband, she's the last one anyone would expect, but she's the only one left to have been leaking info. I bet she is dirty. Fuck me.

No. Tony loves the bottle.

shaaaaame.

I don't want to believe it but I just have this weird feeling :shrug

Ben, shouldn't yours be in a spoiler tag? :p

I can't believe that either. Hell... JAck had to beg him to come back.

ooh, i've thought this. the way he's just lurking around. "hey, whatcha doin? go back with your people already! so yeah, maybe HE'S involved w/ audrey's wimpy ex. probably not. hm.
hey makin these is fun!
edit: i feel like edgar! "hit the backslash! the backslash!!"

[dobyblue]

Oh yeah, before I forget...

CURTIS IS A BAD ASS!!!! He took them out Bauer-style.
I totally agree - I gave the same "shit yeah, kick ass!" scream I gave to the TV in S2 when Kim's boyfriend did a reverse roundhouse kick on that asshole Gary in the parking lot outside the hospital.

[Dancing Ants]

You don't know Jack.

[tdowe99]

So what was that big white nuke-bomb-type explosion thing that Jack was about 10 feet from?

[Ben F.]

I have a request: when you use the spoiler tag, could you preface it with some idea as to the topic of the spoiler?

For example:

potential spoiler for episode 11 -> the spoiler itself may include content from episode 11 or the commercial teaser for that episode

OR

potential spoiler for Season 1 episode 24 -> the spoiler itself may include details of Jack's wife

I realize that's nitpicky- but when I see the spoiler tag I'm curious. If it's pure speculation I don't mind reading it, if it deals with past seasons I don't mind reading it, but if it deals with next week's episode or something you read I don't want to read it.

Yeah yeah, this sounds whiny, but it's a small extra step I would really appreciate you guys taking if you think about it. If not, I can just not click and move on. :)

[boiii]

this spoiler deals with the quesitonable sexuality of some ants members.

[fifel]

This spoiler talks about the preview for next week's show.

I think the big white nuke-bomb-type thing (referred to in an above spoiler) is a "Golden-Eye" / "Oceans 11" electromagnetic pulse gadget. They said something about the helocopter going down. But i don't understand what Jack is screaming about.

[dm40band]

ok this needs to be said, you cant talk about whats gonna happen in the show for the following week but all eastcoasters can talk about the show while its going and ruin it for the westcoasters, now tell me is that fair? I THINK NOT!!!!

[tdowe99]

I don't see "Coming Next Monday" previews as spoilers, cuz it's officially released by Fox. It's not like we read ahead on some 24 spoiler boards and then talked about that. What do you think?

[OCMarsh]

I've always wanted to know how to makes these things

Now I am complete

[JimiThang1]

Good episode tonight...it's pretty obvious now Michelle will be stepping in sooner than later...

[bdb23]

I think we're getting a bit picky about spoilers. If it's for upcoming episodes, then the spoiler tags should be used. If it's for past seasons, I don't think they are necessary. S1-S3 are fair game in the thread.

[mr.MikeD]

I don't think so. Paul was pretty vehement when Audrey was insinuating he had something to hide in the hotel room right before Jack broke in. Paul had no idea Jack was on his way, so he had no reason to act up (that is, unless Audrey told him).

Shit. They've been questioning Heller's son, and now Audrey's husband, she's the last one anyone would expect, but she's the only one left to have been leaking info. I bet she is dirty. Fuck me.

i just quoted this one because it mentioned audrey's possible badness. I don't think so, for a couple of reasons. When she was kidnapped, she was more than willing to kill herself with the gas so that her dad didn't end up on trial (not to say a terrorist isn't willing to die, but the western ones usually aren't), and she would have to to have been one great actor to be as scared as she was.

She also was the one who id'd the computer dude, why do that correctly or at all if she's involved? Of course, she may have done it to get them to go to the data warehouse for the ambush, but that was the mole's job.

As for her husband (paul right?) if he was really clean, why would it take being fried - twice - just to look up a business on his laptop. Sure he's pissed at Jack, but pissed enough to get zapped by bare wires instead of just looking up a name in interest of saving millions of people? He's fishy still.

Of course, on this show, the writers have probably done something that will blow all of my speculation out of the water (I hope so). And I guess Audrey doesn't have to be in specifically with the terrorists to be dirty, it could be some other angle.

Well, that was long and kind of pointless rambling, but hey.

[gravedigger13]

I think Tony is dirty

I really do

I guess it would make sense, since he's working for the same people that threw him in jail five years ago.

Also

Did anyone else think for one second that him and the evil mom were going to make-out when he pinned her up against the wall. It crossed my mind that they are in cahoots. Sorry.


Ok, what am I doing wrong?

[fifel]

I think the problem arises when you are quoting a spolier from another post. Check all the others above. I don't believe any of them work. Just post your spolier separate and make reference to another spoiler. That's what i had to do to get mine to work correctly. Just my 2 cents.

[gravedigger13]

In response to Crumbo's spoiler:

I think Tony could be bad. I mean, he's now working for the same agency that threw him in jail.

also

I thought for one second that Tony and evil mom were going to make out when he pinned her up against the wall. I was expecting to find out that they were in cahoots. That would have been lame, but you have to think of everything when you watch this show.

[road_designer]

so all the reactors are stable....what's next???

that was just one cell that reported to dude, there are others out there doing something?

[dmbsatx]

I wouldn't be surprised to see them move away from this reactor storyline and introduce a new, but somehow related, scenario.

[road_designer]

my problem is I can't think of anything they haven't done yet.

[fifel]

They could figure out where the president is flying too. :lol

no kidding....they've been in the air for a LONG time now...
I guess they probably decided to stay airborne with the reactor issue...

She also was the one who id'd the computer dude, why do that correctly or at all if she's involved? Of course, she may have done it to get them to go to the data warehouse for the ambush, but that was the mole's job. If she's truly devoted to her duty, I think she'd be ready to die (it would have taken Secretary Heller with her, which was the ultimate goal anyway). In season 1, Nina did all kinds of things to help CTU out in their investigation, and she still turned up as dirty as anyone.

As for her husband (paul right?) if he was really clean, why would it take being fried - twice - just to look up a business on his laptop. I don't think he thought Jack would really do it. After the first time he was probably in shock, and after the 2nd time he realized he had better at least try to help Jack find out what the tie was to his company. Of course, this is all complete speculation, and Audrey may turn out to be clean.

Someone deep leaked info about Secretary Heller's whereabouts; they haven't even mentioned Heller's son in about 4 episodes which leads me to believe he's basically out of the picture. Audrey is really the only one left.

[Ben F.]

Um, no.

ALL I FUCKING SAID WAS THAT THE LAST LINE WAS NOT NECESSARY !!!

Apparently, I'm not the only one that feels that way. I guess I can't voice my opinion any more on these boards.

Thanks for deducting a point, whatever ass clown did it, for saying something contradictory.

Just move on. quit trying to police everyone! (ironic)

Thanks ass clown (whoever it was). I didn't deduct any points but will now. Nobody's policing anyone. That started after the first over-sensative response to the original post. I'm sure there are plenty of racial threads to top to vent your frustrations with the world. This thread is for Bauer and his crew.

amazing. Why don't you bitch at Ken since he's the one that brought that conversation back up. The convo was moving forward until you little wannabe board moderators stepped in.

Will Michelle come back to run CTU or will Tony be re-instated as director only to answer to Michelle?

[bdb23]

you little wannabe board moderators stepped in.
Classic.

[Ben F.]

Tony, given his past, was lucky to get reinstated. He won't be head of CTU. Michelle will come back and be temporary director. I don't see them talking it out and deciding to give it another try (given the national crisis and all), but they may leave it open ended for season 5.

[mr.MikeD]

i missed what michele is doing now?? unless she is in a position where she's been following what's happening, it'd be pretty tough to come back to ctu, get up speed, and take things over. hope to see it happen though.

About what I think tony could be like this season, put in spoiler just incase
I was thinking today that I really doubt that tony will be "dirty", he wouldnt have been brought into this at all had jack not called him, a few people here have said they thought he will but it will be a stretch

[EST.1980]

I don't recall him saying that. In fact, and I can't remember his words exactly, but in his latest interview with Leno, he seemed to really enjoy 24 (he didn't sound like he was ready to pull the plug). Maybe I'm wrong.

[killymagee2000]

i thought Keifer said this was his last season, and whats 24 without Jack?

I think his contract may be up at the end of this season (could be wrong), but I'm sure it will get renewed.

The show ain't the show without Jack.

[FPrefect61]

If Michelle is doing something at Division, you know she'll be dead by the end of the season. That's the way it goes with those Division people.

Shit, anyone know what the hell Division is anyway? I liken it to the place they put all the bureaucrats until it's time for them to die.

[dm40band]

I believe Kiefer is contracted through 5 seasons, with an option for two more.

[tdowe99]

Division is the place that runs multiple CTU agencies. They just happen to be in LA too, "on the other side of the highway," as Mason says in Season 1.

Division would coordinate CTU LA, Bakersfield (Mason was going there to run away in Season 2), Las Vegas, San Fran, etc. Just like in Season 3, where they killed all of the virus-carriers.... it was probably Division that coordinated the Sniper Teams based on the info from the GPS.

Ok, I"m geeked out.

god damn fox is run by dipshits.

Ah, yes. Mondays. Only 11 1/2 hours.

[Tak_a_Tak]

It's monday again.............:)

[lillerfm]

Okay, so I just watched last week's show...damn that was good!

We were busy so we taped it and I managed to make it through the whole week without finding out too much...until last Thursday night...when, while watching The O.C. with my back to the television, I believe I was posting in Ants, I hear the following in that low ominous voice "The nuclear theat has been stopped.." before I can get my hands over my ears...

So I knew that was going to happen, but I was still at the edge of my seat the entire hour.

[asmjm39]

how traumatizing :24 would be disapointed in your lack of discipline in avoiding commercials

[flyer3468]

I just don't watch FOX, I mean come on, is there anything else on that station worth watching

[Ben F.]

Less than 30 minutes now... :24

My predictions for this episode:
The guy posing as a CTU officer (Maruan) escapes and we should get a hint into what will be the problem for the 2nd half of the season (but only at the very end of the episode)
Driscoll is out. Michelle may be in as early as this episode, but more likely episode 13 or 14.

There will be something else of fairly major proportion, but I don't really have a clue as to what it might be. (We may see Audrey working against CTU in secrecy)

[lillerfm]

how traumatizing :24 would be disapointed in your lack of discipline in avoiding commercials

[killymagee2000]

That is my thought exactly. I think Heller's son provides the link to this conclusion. I think his son was thrown into this season as a hint that someone close to Heller is working against him. But I have to admit my theory is tempered a bit when you consider that Audrey was willing to sacrifice her life when she and Heller were captured.

[Wildmoose31]

If audrey is working against ctu then i got a feeling her husband might be working with her

[DMBfan41]

audrey is not working against CTU.

As for CTU, I think it's time Tony takes charge

[killymagee2000]

Jack better start killing some people and soon. Otherwise, he's gonna go soft.
