24 - Twenty Four
I got hooked on this television show (which rarely happens) thanks to Bruce. The show takes place in real time, so each episode is an hour (so things happen during the commercial breaks, so there's only about 40 minutes of show per episode). Even my family even got hooked on this show now.

It follows Jack Bauer and the efforts of CTU - Counter Terrorist Unit to stop the threat of assassination attempts, weapons of mass destruction (found them), kidnapping, conspiracies. It's edge of your seat stuff.

Throughout the show, Jack is shown to be a man of responsibility, who takes responsibility for his actions and respects the dignity of human life. --and that's awesome. (The ends don't justify the means here.)


Thoughts on Season 5 - Episode Nine:

-Right when Jack and Curtis were getting sentimental, Jack knocks out Curtis, and leaves him unconscious on the curb --classic.

-Lynn, the former hobbit (I'm still not used to seeing him so tall), is starting to stress over CTU all thanks to the resolute (-sarcasm-) President Logan.

-Nathanson can't justify all the things he's done to help in this (terrible) plot (that Palmer thing.. GRRRR ;) ). But Jack helps him out against the hostiles. Jack vs Helicopter --helicopter down..

-Buchanny, who's been cool this season and last, gets put away by Lynn, into holding. Hopefully Buchanny, the laddy, will be alright.. insubordination, hah.

-Then the episode ends with Logan sending the Russian president off with a bang.. (4 more years, hah)
