Good Again

I think “24″ just got good again.
Fantastic episode tonight.
Should be a strong run to the finale.

Has 24 Jumped the Shark?

I’m going to be away from the computer for a few days and I haven’t had time to preload any posts that will magically appear as if I were really here updating this blog. If you haven’t already read them, you might take a look at some of my favorite posts listed to the right.
Until […]

Shocked and Stunned

The last ten minutes of last night’s episode left me shocked and stunned.  It was over the top even by “24″ standards.
Some are complaining that the show has finally crossed the line and gone too far.  (related story with spoilers.)
What do you think?  Has it gone too far?
Remember that season one aired just after 9-11.  […]

Jack’s Back

Well, the first two hours didn’t disappoint.
Jack found a new way to kill someone tonight. I won’t spoil it for those who haven’t watched it yet, but let’s just say it will remind you of a movie that Keifer Sutherland starred in a long time ago.
I’m ready for the next two hours tomorrow night.
Every […]

Why We Love Jack Bauer

I’ve never missed an episode of “24.”
From the very first season, I’ve been a fan of Jack Bauer.
After the gut-wrenching four hour premiere earlier this week I’ve been meditating on exactly what it is that makes Jack Bauer so compelling to me and to so many of my friends. Especially surprising to me […]

The Following Takes Place . . .

This morning I was tempted to start my sermon by saying, “The following takes place between 10 and 11 am on Sunday morning.”
Jack Bauer lives!

15 Minutes Away?

What’s with how on “24″ Jack is always just “15 minutes away” from whatever building, terrorist hideout, or meeting point that he needs to get to. I’ve spent enough time in L. A. to know that no matter where you are, you’re not fifteen minutes away from anything.

What’s Up?

I just got an email chastising me for my blogaslob behavior. It’s been over a week since my last update. Why? I haven’t had much to say. I’m pretty busy at work and I haven’t been reading much lately.
I’m enjoying “24″ again this year. I almost quit it last year, […]

24

After watching the first episode of “24″ last fall I stated that I probably wouldn’t watch it anymore. Well, I ended up watching every episode this season and enjoying almost every minute of it. As they do each season, the writers lose their way midway through and come up with some senseless plotlines, […]

To Watch or Not To Watch

I have a decision to make.
Will I watch “24″ tonight or not?
I haven’t missed an episode of it in two years (days). I’m not sure I’m up to starting year (day) three with Jack Bauer. I’ve eliminated almost all TV watching from my regular schedule. I’m trying to only pick a few […]
