24

I'm doing a season 1 marothon tonight! Up to 9:00 am right now...

Lol. First the crazy rainman kid, then Wayne goes nuts, and now Audrey too!

Anyone else just wanting this season to hurry up and be over?

i think the first one is the best, just because its nowhere near as predictable

from watching this show all the damn time like i do (i watched all 5 seasons in 3 months and now im caught up w/ the current season) then you catch on to whats going on, to who the mole in the government is, to who is gonna do what.

and i also do think it has alot to do w/ the characters. I hated season 4 for the first 4 episodes, just because Jack was screwwin around w/ some other chick and there were so many ppl i didnt know, and then i got really pissed when i saw the new CTU(which im okay with now)

i did hear (from reading forums) that in the last episode, someone important is going to pull up to jack while he is in the middle of a gunfight and open the door and say either "my lips are very chapped" or "we have some talking to do"

i dont know who that could be if its even true, but its something to think about.

i dont believe the "Tony is still alive!" crap, but that would certainly be interesting wouldnt it?

I would like Tony to be alive, he was one of my favorite characters. Hopefully if they bring him back is with a reasonable explanation. Im hoping Audrey gets killed soon, I cant stand her character. The White House crap is getting old already. I hope they change the setting for the next season because is getting too predictable.

it will probably bring someone else into Jacks love life first, because as of now she is pretty much his only motivation

This has been a great season, you're all insane.

Not compared to the other ones.

THe producers have admitted that they kind of missed the mark this season. The good thing is this will give them a good reality check as to how they can change the direction of the show and actually make them try something new.

Even Keifer has said is becoming kinda predictable and thats why for the last 3 seasons is gonna be a change of setting, Away from L.A.

I'm thinking something to do with an wartime situation.

Question: So, we've had rumors of 24 leaving L.A. for the last two seasons. What's different this time?—

Ausiello: Well, for starters, the show is in desperate need of a facelift — and Kiefer Sutherland knows it. "I'd like to see a huge departure [next season]," he says in the new, finale-themed issue of TV Guide. "We go back and forth from the White House and CTU to the field, but I'd like to see that change up. I'd like to see Jack work in the outside world."

Yeah, thats why I'm thinking a war is going to happen and Jack will be an major player in terms of being an special ops guy and spy.

It would make sense considering Jack Bauer is the best soldier in the world.

^Thanks. Hate the fact that it took them that long to realise that. I guess they had to taste failure before they realised how repetitive it was getting, even though great, but repetitive.

producers also made a similar statement about wanting to totally remake the show.

smas your idea is pretty cool. Although I dont know about a full on war. I would be interesting to jack in an offensive mode though.

The problem is, the producers said the same things about season 5 and 6. " Jack would have to save his own ass" blah blah blah, but nothing of that nature has happened. They played that angle in season five for a grant total of 4 episodes. Ridiculous

i dont think they said they wanted to completely reinvent the show though. I expect them to bring us something new, maybe not as extreme as jack being special ops in a war, but I wouldnt except the same formula we have seen a few years in a row now.

Maybe, not a war...but something to do with the Russians maybe? Or Chinese?

The story has a chance to follow that idea with the Russians almost attacking the States, or the Chinese in the process of attacking.

What could happen is that the Chinese actually accomplish thier goal, alot of the main characters die, then the States retaliating with something else.

Kinda of goes with the whole reinventing the theme behind 24, that the last episode is suppose to be crazy and Chloe, Bill, Milo, Audrey and a couple of others have been on for a very long time and it seems that the producers like to kill off major characters after being on the show for more than two seasons.

Or, they could just do another terrorist plot to blow LA, (or San Fran)...boring.

Ive always wanted to see Jack in a whole different environment, see him cut loose. While there are some aspects of CTU I like I wanna see Jack more on his own, full soldier mode.

yeahh, i would like it more if he would like take Chloe and go somewhere and have to figure everything out on his own, instead of reporting to CTU and letting them do all that, then feeding Jack leads

it would better if he was only working w/ Chloe
