I had a friend who was staying with me for a week two weeks ago so since we always watch 24 with dinner I was like "well come watch it with us". At the end of the episode she was like "wow... well, a lot of stuff happened, and a lot of it was violence, but also plot. That's a lot of plot for an hour."

Narcissus1916: We have to get back to my place within the hour! Girl: You're certainly sure of yourself. Why do you look so nervous? Narcissus1916: Dammit, you don't understand, WE'RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME!

Rewatching some earlier seasons. Feel like Kim could really use lessons in basic problem solving. Oh yeah, where the hell is my Nina Myers spinoff series? Such a shame when she died. Also, in retrospect, I remember there was a bunch of hoorah over how the show is a big neocon fantasy. First seasons are fairly apolitical and are more just tight political action thrillers. Seems many of the situations are so ridiculous that its hard to draw a real-world analogy that could actually happen. sulphix fucked around with this message at 03:42 on Jul 13, 2014 |

Why would you ever go on a date and hope it ends quickly so you can catch a tv show live, or ask a girl who wanted to get drinks to instead come back to your place to watch a tv show (and actually watch it!) instead?  Just DVR it it's a loving tv show. A great one, but a tv show. Twee as Fuck fucked around with this message at 04:10 on Jul 13, 2014 |

The impression I got was that those ridiculously implausible situations are precisely why it's accused of being a neocon fantasy, because neocons frequently argue that "That could totally happen!". The classic example being torture-happy types who say "Yeah but what if a terrorist knows where a bomb is and they have 30mins to get it out of him?"

But the terrorist is also a grizzled agent's wife, who was betraying him for over 8 years. They have also strapped his daughter to the bomb that will detonate WITHIN THE HOUR!!! In addition, the agent's best friend was also loving the wife and wants to kill her, but killing her will mean they lose their only lead! A bunch of useless civilians and CTU personnel also die, because gently caress it.

cycomatix posted:^^ The real reason this season is 12 episodes long. Exactly. I'm on the last new episode now. Audrey just told Jack "do whatever you gotta do". I love this continuing theme of "ok we gotta go with Jack cause motherfucker is always right". EDIT: Ok this part where the president drops his meds on the ground and the generals spaz out is so dumb. It could be blood pressure meds for all he knows.

^^^ We're about to enter World War III with the Chinese and the President is telling him to literally do nothing. He's also old and taking meds. It's not too crazy to think 'Is he working with a full deck?' especially since no, he's not working with a full deck. I love Heller as much as the next guy, but we're talking about a sitting President who had accepted to give himself over to terrorists and be killed a few hours ago and is going to resign the second he gets back in the States. The generals are 100% right of being concerned he's not fit for the job, because he clearly is not. Coughing Hobo posted:you're an idiot because you thought any of us were even remotely serious and i hope the finale is jack bauer throwing you out of a window Except that I was addressing Narcissus, and he said that's exactly what he's gonna do (grab a few drinks and hope the date ends/try to end it quickly enough so he can run and catch the show live).

Im pretty sure all the displays of (oftentimes very brutal) torture being portrayed a totally effective method that yields 100% reliable information about terrorist activity that initially earned the show the reputation of "neocon fantasy" Plus arent the original creators hardline conservatives or some such?

Keifer looks 60, but he's actually much younger and could probably pump out a few more seasons before getting too old to run and yell at the same time.

Kiefer Sutherland is Big Boss now, which means he could fall into a nanomachine-induced coma but awaken years later once the AI that controls the nanomachines is destroyed.

Maybe the voice directors just give him some generic motivation like, "this guy's really sad/mad and wants to get his comrades back / revenge."

Either way if it was completely final you'd think that they would call it a series finale. I think they are just leaving the option open in case they decide to come back
