I think Jack really did give up the real tape; I mean, henderson seems like the kind of person that would check the tape before he called the president. It kinda sucks that Jack would compromise national security for audrey, but i guess that's love...
And another thing: Why is chloe so damn annoying and impudent? I mean, yea i get it, shes really good with computers and stuff, but does she have to talk down to everyone all the time?? Every week i look forward to her getting shot by an RPG, and everyweek it doesent happen. You notice, she doesent talk to Jack like that though. He'd yank her hair out by the roots.

Jack is going to take the plane hostage? I have a feeling that the guy in the plane might not have the recording.
I didn't like last night's episode very much.
The President is pissing me off, such a weak character. He's a wuss. Talking about weak, Jack Bauer has sure gone soft. He needs to fuck people some more, kill without hesitation, I don't know what his current deal is. He seems pussy whipped.
Next episode should be great, he taking over a commercial airplane should be lots of fun. Maybe kill a couple of innocent bystanders in the process.
That was some daring shit...stowing away on some diplomat's plane...and not even knowing whose it is. And i understand about him not being as bad ass (i.e killing henderson) but he needed the tape, so i guess he had to make some concessions. But what's up with curtis meltin out the shadows like a ninja; that shit was uncalled for. And I wonder what really happened to aaron?? I dont think its a simple transfer, since they found his phone outside on the ground. Damn, Logan is not only weak, but also evil AND he cant control his hoe (errr woman).
P.S. I didnt expect audrey's dad to go all psycho and drive off the cliff. i bet he s still alive.
I think the father is still alive and will probably become the president in the next season. :P

I forgot about Curtis the ninja. That was pretty badass.
Edit:
Quick question, who were the guys talking to the president with the mic things attached to their mouths. I missed the first 15 minutes due to storm coverage.
I'm guessing an international conglomerate of some sort that has the prez in their pocket. And Curtis rules, your not suppoed to know he's there, that's how he rolls.
Jack is going soft though, where's the shoot first, then shoot some more Jack I know and love. I thought Jack figured out he didn't need a bitch back in season 2, I mean the ladies throw themselves at him and he could care less, besides, Audrey is a ditzzy blonde with an inferiority complex (and no spine...Henderson should be dead, he escaped CTU once already...). However Jack did just walk right onto a diplomatic flight no sweat, so he's still oozing pimp like there's no tomorrow.
Lights out for the air marshal... lol.
You know, the show is getting more repetitive and less appealing. The "OMG" hype isn't coming to me anymore. At least Jack is getting the job done. Unless they pull something completely twisted at the end, this season becomes completely predictable.
You know this is the freaking 5th season, there's only so much twists and surprises they can come up with. I can't think of any TV Series that has been around this long that hasn't suffered from the same repetitive yet. At this point in time I really don't care for much of the story, I just tune in to watch Jack Bauer, that's enough.
I didn't get to see the first half, but Miles is a bitch.
Yeah pretty much, I guess he just bought himself a *Im gonna get killed by Jack* card.
And I really wanted to see Logan shoot himself in the head.
R.I.P Captain America.
Jack was surprisingly calm in the preview...
I hope Miles dies a painful death.
Damn, that emergency landing scene looked so weird.
Still a relatively good episode though.
OMFG! Why did that stupid bitch tell Miles anything I wanted to see Logan's head splatter all over that office. And why did they let him just waltz up to Chloe like nothing was wrong. CTU people have the worst security sense ever! Hmmm extremely important recording...lets let this guy we don't trust just nose around and do whatever he wants near it. I blame Jack's boner for Audrey, that bitch is making him soft. Hopefully she'll get shot and he can regain his coolness in the end.
Damn, i guess thats what happens when two cowards collaborate...the shit hits the fan, and all hell breaks loose. I dont know why, but that little consortium facilitator the president is in with is kinda annoying, i hope they both get skullfucked by jack at some point.
upon going back home for a few days I sat down with some friends and absolutely powerhoused a few episodes of 24. The run ended when we got to a VHS (yes, we are that ghetto) where an episode was missing. So I'm not caught up yet, but goddamn do I have to post in here.
I started watching 24 back early on in Season 2, and Season 5 is the first time i've missed a live broadcast (at college i'd catch the West Coast if I missed the 9PM EST), and yes it chews me up that I can't be an active discussor here, but that's just the way it is...
Last episode I saw was the one after Lyn McGill and Tony (Tony no!) died.
So, where to start?
Oh, how about them KILLING PALMER!
My initial reaction "Oh! Shit... Right in the neck." And from the wound I wasn't shocked that he didn't make it... I surprisingly wasn't sad at all about Palmer's death for awhile, until they have the scene where Jack sneaks into the crime scene (fucking insane man) and sees Palmer's covered corpse. That made me shed a tear... That guy will always be my President. In fact, I want a bumper sticker that says "David Palmer is my President"
Logan:
This guy is an idiot. He makes Bush look smart.
Logan's wife: Best new character, hands down. I love that woman. She's insane, she knows how to abuse her power, she has a good heart. When she got into the Tsubarov's car I was just like "Damn woman, you're not just crazy, you're fucking brave."
Logan's Aides:
Novack seems to be a little stupider this season, but just as devious and immoral.
I always wondered what the fuck Walt Cummings did and why he was around. Now we know, he was fucking the president in the ass whenever he got the chance.
The VP: I haven't gotten any solid proof yet, but just looking at this guy I know he's the bad guy. It's always the fucking VP...
Agent Pierce:
I said it about a million times in Seasons 3 and 4: "It's important that it's always the same Secret Service guy. He's not just some extra. One day he'll do something huge." Agent Pierce is the baddest motherfucker next to Jack Bauer.
Lyn McGill:
go back to the Shire and suck on Frodo's hairy feet you Notre Dame walk-on! There's always such idiots appointed to overlooking CTU... none of which seem to have any special abiltiy to handle active crises...
Kim Bauer:
She is so hot. I'm just glad she's back, but she needs some better outfits.
Tony:
Goddamn it they killed Tony! He should have gone out in a much better way...
Wayne Palmer:
Living testament against the stereotype that black people are good drivers. Also put in some pathetic acting so far.
Michelle:
I never liked the girl, but I was sad to see her go.
Edgar:
Second I saw that fat bastard in the room with the gas I knew he was a goner, but it was still one of the most emotional scenes in the show. He was a bit too by the book this season, but I still liked his character alot.
Curtis:
Now that's what I call affirmative action!
Titty girl:
Titties!I love 'em titties!
Oil Rig Slut and Son:
The son was surprisingly one of my favorite young characters ever. I was a little disappointed that he and his mom (another forgettable slut. Jack is a pimp!) were taken off so early... I believe his experience can serve as a valuable lesson to others:
Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever try to sneak up on Jack Bauer.
So it's probably pointless for me to specualte about future events (that you've all probably been past at this point) but I am still trying to figure one thing out:
Why are they killing off so many characters?
It's been gritty before, but there's never been such a high body count of characters who have alot of screentime. Chloe and Curtis are the only two CTU people I can recognize (and whatever happened to that Asian strike-team commander? Did he die last season?). Bill Buchannon is still a pretty recent addition, but I guess he's a 'familair face' as well as Audrey Raines (who technically doesn't work at CTU but always seems to be there...)
Is it a budget issue? Are they unable to retain cast members? Are they winding down the show? If anyone has any spoiler free info on what might explain the killings-off please PM me.
If you PM me a spoiler about anyone after Tony dying I will grind your bones to make my bread. No joke, don't fuck with my 24. Thank you.
You all probably won't see me around this thread until much later (it'll probably be all over then...) but keep on enjoying it.
Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".
OMG you must watch the show NOW, download the torrents from Mininova or some other dump site. EZTV has from 16-21 of season 5, and the rest are probobly out there too. It is my mission to spread the word of Jack Bauer, just as it was spread to me last year. I will help anyone in need of 24 in whatever way that I can.
This episode just redeemed 24 for me. This is the stuff I like. Aaron is so badass, and the president is going to get owned!
