24
My new obsession. Before 11 days ago, I have never seen an episode of 24. I have been missing out. I took the necessary time over those days to watch the entire 1st season and start the second one. Before I make my comments, I would like to apologize to anyone that I have made fun of 24 too. I, before watching any episodes, felt the concept about a show’s whole season taking place over 24 hours was dumb. Boy was I wrong.
The show is non-stop, heart-pumping, completely unpredictable action. Believe me when I say I am usually good at picking up what will happen next, and was wrong every time. There is no lame dialogue, no stupid parts (maybe one, which was quickly fixed) and a whole lot of plot. Not too much to not know what’s going on, but enough to keep you very entertained. And it’s all tied together quite nicely.
Then, of course, there is Jack Bauer. The man. He thinks of everything. It’s really the epitome of what most guys want to be. Kiefer Sutherland does a great job- making every on screen moment as believable and entrancing as the last. If you have not seen 24, I highly recommend it. Start with Season 1 and work your way up. Later.
Another soul is converted! Praise Palmer!
