24 - New Season Begins Tonight

[FourAces]

Hey guys this is more a heads up for those in central and pacific time. 24 begins its 4th season tonight at 8pm with the first two hours then two more hours tomorrow evening.

 

For those who might not know the Fox show format it takes place in real time so the total of 24 episodes will equal one day. It is great to watch a show when someone says it will take me 30 minutes to get there .. actually take 30 minutes.

I thought it was a great show. Very smart marketing to run 2 hours back to back to establish the audience.

[FourAces]

Yep I finished watching it a little while ago and it's off to another great start. I can hardly wait for tomorrow's 2 episodes.

Watched it myself. I have the frist seasons on DVD. Thought the story moved swiftly into a compelling opening. Any takers on a bet that the Driscoll woman is dirty? Can't wait for more.

[Guest Mikel]

I'll have to give it a try...the concept sounds intriguing.

 

Anyone watch the Peoples Choice Awards????

Caught the show last night. My first time to watch. Really enjoyed it - think I may be hooked. And I agree - the Driscol woman is highly suspect! Were the previous seasons this good?

[LovesYng]

What a fuckin show, Sunday night was the first time I ever watched it and now I'm hooked. Fox sure did hit big with 24. New fan of the show now.

 

When in doubt I whip it out :+

I did not watch it not because I dont like it cause I do. BUt I have been watching it on Netlix the first two seasons , just moved into 3rd season and don't want to see 4th before it will ruin it. But Love the show. HUGS

[noviceny]

Sorry...its all about Law and Order : Criminal Intent !!!!! It was on at the same time

[FourAces]

Yes, the previous 3 seasons were just as good. Season 1 was so unique at the time it probably stands as the best. I felt season 3 eclipsed season 2 slightly.

 

Don't get too set on pointing fingers toward who you think is good and who is bad. The show is famous for putting a million twists and turns in each episode that do not seem like much at the time but somehow they connect the dots as the episodes move forward.

 

Tonight will be the next two hours.

If escorts would just loosen up, try to enjoy an opportunity and not focus so much on treating everyone like an ATM, then maybe they wouldn’t find things so bad." BN

MI-5 Far Better

 

I have watched a few episodes of the show each season. I don't watch more than that because I find the quality to be extremely uneven. Some of the scenes in a given episode have an intensity rarely seen on network television, while others are incredibly silly. The "Perils of Pauline" - like experiences of Jack Bauer's wife and daughter in the first two seasons were so absurd that they quite drained away whatever suspense the other plot elements produced.

 

A show that is of far more consistent quality (and far better acted) is MI-5, a British import that has just begun a new season on A&E. Check your local listings for times.

Wow---- get the smelling salts kiddies,,,,I ,,,agree,,,, with,,,,,,woodlawn(feels like I just passed a stone).

Watched the opener of 24---I do not feel it captures a realtime experience,nor should it-that would be tedious.

MI5 is far superior.

Jack's wife died in the first season. But I do acknowledge that like any fantasy series a few of the senarios were a strech.

Never heard of it, I will check this show out.

I plan to order MI-5 from netflix...thought it sounded promising when it began, but never got around to watching. Thanks for the endorsement.

Did this show go downhill or what? It's not the Muslims we have to worry about, but the redheads!

"24" has gone done hill: It's become a daytime soap opera with all the boo-hooing.

 

Far & away best show now is "The Shield" on FX on Tuesday nights.:9 }(
