Who's watching? Jack Bauer gonna kick all the terrorist scum by himself once again! Woo!
I must say, the formula is getting stale already. OMGLOLOL I wonder if there's going to be another mole at ctu.
But meh, I'll watch anyway.

yea, i'll be watching it.
but my in-laws are staying tonight, and they tend to be hard to watch stuff with, as they can't keep from making comments like "oh sure, like THAT could really happen.." and eventually I blow up and say "IT'S A MOTHERFUCKING TV SHOW."

isn't that 24 show some kind of terrorism propganda?...

Yes it is. I just saw a small preview of the new season on tv. Apparently, terrorists are secretly planning on invading the Mr. Clean soaps factory in an effort to change the formula so it dosen't soften hands after use. One lone fighter by the name of Geoff comes in to save the day.

I'm watching ATM. I've already been surprised a bit.

It did get a bit predictable, so hopefully they will not have another goddamn mole this season.
edit: fucking hell, it sounds like there's another mole... :icon33:
edit2: oh, for fucks sake, another mole!

So there's 2 moles? I thought the chief secretary was one (the guy by the president)... any others?

I thought it was allright. Yeah, they started pulling a bunch of shit they already did in previous seasons, but you know what, you can do a lot worse like watch skating with celebrities.

No, just one mole (so far), my second edit was just confirming my suspicions.

After the former President was in so many seasons, I was kind of shocked to see him die in the first 10 minutes of this season.
The other couple had it coming, though.

yeah but don't forget what happened the last time they exposed a mole quickly.

people who say 24 is formulaic haven't watched it [closely] enough. It's a very smart show, and the similarities between storylines (due to the fact that an LA-based counter-terrorism unit can only respond to so many different crises in so many different ways) are mostly superficial. As andyman said, they've already turned the mole concept on its head once.
I was frankly a little bit underwhelmed by the episodes tonight (barring the riveting first 20 minutes) but the same has been true for the last couple seasons iirc, and they picked up very nicely. I'm sure there is plenty of goodness ahead.

yeah, there is a whole 22 hours left and the producer, joel something, said that this season completely obliterates the last 4.
It doesn't matter anyways....this show is my most favorite show i have ever watched. Keifer Sutherland is Jack Bauer. nuff said
