Cool, I'm interested to see how they will change up the formula of the show, the current one was good, but it has now tired in my opinion.

Day 1: Middle-eastern or Russian terrorists obtain a nuclear device and threaten to destroy L.A... yet again, Jack has to choose between doing the right thing or protecting someone he cares about yet still avoid any consequence for his actions

Day 2: Middle-eastern or Russian terrorists obtain a nuclear device and threaten to destroy L.A... yet again, Jack has to choose between doing the right thing or protecting someone he cares about yet still avoid any consequence for his actions

Go Jack! Keep the body count climbing.

Don't forget that in either Day 1 or Day 2 (or both) CTU is attacked and/or someone inside is a mole helping the Middle-eastern or Russian terrorists.

Sweet.

what kind of ratings is it sustaining throughout this season? has the general public realized that they've been watching the same crap for 3-4 years?

You could say that for any TV show.

Yeah I don't get all the whining about the show this season when it's been that way for the whole frickin length of the series. Well, I sort of understand, people will always bitch about something no matter what.

For example, last episode or the week before "24" tied with "Heroes" for third with a 6.6 rating. Last season (#5) was the highest rated for the show.

Looking at the rating trends, it has been pretty consistent.

I'm waiting for the day when they just film him sleeping and show 24 hours of that. Because if I went five days with no sleep, I'd have to go atleast one of nothing but.

They're not back to back days... because obviously then... he'd have to charge his phone.

How could you also forget insiders in the white house with a president and VP that never get along. There's always someone plotting against the president.

Oh and relationship drama! Karen and Bill? Milo and Nadia? VP + slutty secretary? Michelle + Tony? Jack + Audrey? Jack + Marilyn? Chloe + Morris? Aaron + Martha? Ahahahahaha they try to make this a Grey's Anatomy with all the stupid relationship drama, but how can you do that with such crappy acting?

Jack: Chloe, I need you to hack into the toilet's subnet to allow drainage access
Chloe: I don't know if I can do that, my husband helps out terrorists
Jack: CHLOE WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH TIME!
Chloe: I'm uploading the toilet's plumbing protocol to your PDA. OH wait, it looks like you left your PDA in your man bag here at CTU

JAck: DAMN IT!

hardly. except for reality shows, what other show has largely independent seasons, but recycles the same plot devices each season? oh, it's russians this year instead of arabs? nuclear bombs instead of chemical weapons? the writers must really be pushing the limits of their talents.

watching 24 is like reading Mad Libs, except the blanks are "weapon of mass destruction", "terrorist group ethnicity", "name of CTU mole", "name of obstinant CTU director" instead of "noun", "adjective", "color", "number.

I'd like to see the rating numbers heads up against 'Heroes'.
