Wow what a show tonight, Caught me off guard and next week looks great too.

Poor Edgar

Jiggy_12 · 03-07-2006, 12:03 AM

That was THE best episode of 24 I've seen so far (In 2 seasons).

Wow.

Yeah, fantastic episodes tonight, certainly a twist out of the blue in the 2nd hour...last weeks was pretty intense too.

Next week should be pretty interesting too from the highlights next week.

So far, the best of the 4 of 5 seasons I've seen.

SPOILER, highlight if you want to read it...

But C'MON, it's gotta be harder then that to clone a friggin card? Doesn't it? But definately a GREAT 2 hours of TV. Just killing people off one by one eh?

Well, maybe not so hard to clone the keycard, but to get in with full executive access without much issue or secondary check, and not having to go through a metal detector at the executive entrance, or enter sensative areas is a little dubious.

Calgary Flames · 03-07-2006, 12:53 AM

Jeez, we need a 24 pool on who's going to die this year... I never liked Edgar, in fact i've said many times I hope he get's killed off. But now.. I miss him. Poor Edgar! HE WAS JUST DOING HIS JOB!!

Yea, I mean I do recall some joe blo get in(dude to kill jack), he had to put his bag through an xray machine. I mean even execs should have to go through that. But I mean, I guess if he couldn't have gotten in then plot line would be shot, so to speak. That shrink must be thinking EVERYONE in that room needs help.
I mean great episode, but somethings kinda frustrated me cuz they looked WAY too easy.

Neeper · 03-07-2006, 01:45 AM

Yeah I was shocked about Edgar.

O_M_A · 03-07-2006, 01:49 AM

Wow. Great Episode.

That was more of a season's finale type show... impressive stuff.

greyshep · 03-07-2006, 01:13 PM

This is the first season I have watched it on a week to week basis.

I watched season 1-4 on dvd this past summer. (which got me hooked)

I may have to rent it when it comes out on DVD cause I am not enjoying it nearly as much having to wait a week between episodes.

Still a great show though.

I love the red garbed security guards, comical outfits, they get killed out of hand every season.

MrMastodonFarm · 03-07-2006, 02:05 PM

Been watching since the middle of last season, and that was the best episode I've seen... Jack shooting that woman in the leg really shocked me, and then her husband still not saying anything, and then Edgar getting it. I've only been watching for a bit now, but I was really upset was Edgar bit it.. it was also a nice touch to not have the time counting down with sound at the end.. just silent.

Otto-matic · 03-07-2006, 05:20 PM

I wonder if Tony gets the axe next week

I totally agree - nice touch. When the "stay tuned for scenes from next weeks show" thing came up, Jack normally looks into the camera - this time his head was just down and didn't look up.

Not I! As soon as Jack said, "I'm not going to shoot you!", I knew she'd be getting a bullet from Bauer.

No, Tony's still around for a reason.
Being in the same room as Henderson will be the first plot...but for some reason I get the idea that Tony's not squeaky clean in all this maybe either.

The red shirtied security guards are quite similar in look and role to the original Star Trek counterparts.

The silent clock at the end was somewhat eerie.

Displaced Flames fan · 03-07-2006, 06:42 PM

Just watched the episodes, thanks tivo!

Big question to me is why won't Henderson talk? The answer to that question is going to blow us away I think.

I liked the way Chloe reacted to Edgar. She's human!

I think this whole thing goes MUCH furthur then we think, and that's what Henderson is hiding.
My take is that the vice president is involved in it somehow, and many upper cabinet members, etc.

I agree.. I got the same gut feeling when I saw him yesterday.

Also suspect the Russian president and moreso his wife are going to be taking on a more important/sinister role

Good season so far.. its the only one I've watched week to week... all the others I've seen on DVD .. much more enjoyable that way I think but I wasn't about to wait a year for this to come out

Otto-matic · 03-07-2006, 11:59 PM

Well that must have been one of the best this season. Something is up between Henderson and the US government perhaps Cummings and Henderson had a deal worked out and he still thinks Walt is alive and wont tell who is a mole in the US government. I dont think they told the public yet that Walt has passed away and that is the reason why Chris isnt speaking to Jack. I think Henderson bites the dust from the preview last night and Jack needs to save him to get as much out before he dies from the nerve gas.

Wookie · 03-08-2006, 03:39 AM

Yeah I was thinking about the dealings that Tony and Michelle were talking about at the beggining if all of a sudden they were related.

Poor poor Edger, everyone was so sad... I'm sad :baby:

haha yeah the Shrink looked terrified, what a puss, he's to big of a fag to be allowed in that building he should have bit it with the other star trek cadets.

It'll be interesting who's tied to Henderson. It could be anyone..

I feel like I'm cheating on Battlestar Galactica and Cowperson haha by saying this, but when 24 is on the ball there is no better show!! I'm been ho-humming a few times this season 5, but then they step up and make two great episodes

Makes me forget the Flames lost
