I watch a lot of TV, but for the first time in years since Seinfeld, got hooked on a show that I would clear time for weekly without question.
24.
I can't believe missed the first 3 seasons, but the Superbowl ads in January hooked me into watching the next two nights, and the wife and I were engrossed in it every week until May. As a bonus, I enjoy that there are no repeats through the entire season, no weeks off.
And, for the first time as a result, purchased Seasons 1 and 2 on DVD and have been filling the void for the last 7 months with semi regularity in watching those two seasons.
Great lead character in Keifer Sutherland, solid support/revolving cast of characters (President Palmer), solid story line (ok sure some cheesy twists and inaccuracies, but no more then any big budget movie (action or otherwise) I've ever watched) that does keep one guessing.
Can hardly wait until Jan 15 2006 and season 5.
