I missed it! I thought tomorrow was the 15th. Aaarrrrrgghh.

Does anyone know if they are rebroadcasting it? I know Fox isn't associated with iTMS. Otherwise I could just download it. And my ISP blocks all torrents. They used to rebroadcast on FX Sunday nights. But I don't see it listed.

Wow! Now that's a way to start off a season. That weasel Logan is still president. I was hoping they would explain what happened to the previous president that was shot down in Air Force 1.

There are no rebroadcast when it comes to 24, your only chance is if A & E presents it at a later date. I will send you a private e-mail telling you what happened. It was quite good hope there will more that the single thing we saw.

My prediction for Tony is, he will be back in full force by 5:00 p.m. on the street with Jack trying to find the culprits.

President Charles Logan is SUCH a jerk. In real life the actress who plays his wife, Jean Smart, would have been too smart to marry a creep like him, I think.

I hope so. Looks like He's down for the day (season) though. Too bad, I like Carlos benard I hope they at least let him live. You never really know on this show though.

Too bad they aren't smarter. Maybe it would prompt us to work harder to get our stuff together more, better. When 'smart' women settle for creeps it helps perpetuate creepiness in the world.

Hmph! It's women who are responsible for this world being so messed up.

You do not know if Tony is down or not. Kiefer said last year that the writers do not write the entire season before it starts and sometimes they change their minds in mid-season to what is going to happen. But, they have a pretty good idea what is going to happen by mid-season.

I watched a season of 24. Lemme recap EVERY season of 24:

"Jack we need you."
"I'm too forlorn, but alas, I can vindicate myself once more."
"They have a bomb, Jack. A big fking bomb."
"We need to find the bomb!"
"WHERE IS THE BOMB!? WHO ARE YOU WORKING FOR?!"
"I sucked his eyeball out and he still won't tell me a damn thing."
"That's it, Jack. You've done all you can. Now come home where it's safe and warm."
"I may be able to think of something else, though."
[Insert inane plot twist here.]
"Hooray! We're saved!"
"I just want to go home, now. Where it's warm and safe."
"We love you Jack."
"Fk you."

The End.
Do you want forgiveness or respect?

I did not want to open a new thread about 24, and this one will do just fine.

So predictions, Jack will go to Moscow to prevent the bombings to occur.

I hadn't thought of that but I had to tape the show and only saw bits and pieces last night. Maybe I'll watch it later today.

He'll travel to Moscow with a jaw grip on a 747 aileron at 35,000 feet while trying to inject himself with an improvised tamiflu after an incident with a migrating duck. Upon landing, he will sneeze anyway.

But stuff like that's why I love 24.

I want to post with my clothes on for a change. The other patrons here at the coffee shop will think that's novel, I'll bet. I dunno, maybe I should go prepare a celebratory pic. Like gorickey, only one-tenth the impact.

I have yet to watch an episode of Season 5, so I skipped to the bottom of the thread and now I'd like to fart in all of your noses.

Well, that rocket-nuke in season 4 took like 8 hours to go from Iowa to Los Angeles; maybe they converted some of the inertia in that to fling him to Russia...?

He also went to some desert outside of Las Vegas and back in an hour (while killing everyone but Marh-wan, that waskily waskal tewowist).

It's funny how the CTU sattelite system gets taken by "division" during critical time periods; especially when the president is on the phone with them... I mean "division" has more important things to do with it, apparently.

I am glad Tony is still alive; now he is going for blood. And I agree it is kind of sad that Edgar is dead. But, that is what makes this show so interesting they do not hesitate to kill one of the main character.

Yeah I agree. You feel at any time a main character can check out. Tony is my favorite character and he doesn't look in good shape there. Next week looks like someone else is gonna check out too. Wasn't expecting Edgar to go out, must less like that. Great show.

This reminds me of when Jack held up the gas-station last season. It is just time wasting.

Oh and I bet that Lynn dies next week. He has no further purpose on the show.

Yeah, I figured Rudy was going to give his life next week to save everyone else. It's the least he could do to redeem himself. Or maybe Tony will pull one of those "I can't live without her, I is a comin' Michelle" hero routines, save the day on his last dying breath and head to the great soul patch in the sky.

Edger always kind of annoyed me, but I was surprised that he died. I didn't see that coming. And thumbs up to Curtis for making the hundred yard run with a canister of nerve gas like O.J. Simpson on astroturf.

When will the terrorists realize that if you set a timer for 10:00 minutes, you will be thwarted? Remember kids, always set your timers for 9:57 seconds to prevent last second thwarting.
