24 Blogging


Me: I don’t get why Palmer launches the attack though…ohhh, I bet it’s because of the adrenaline!
F-train: Dawn, it’s adrenaline…not crystal meth.

So there you have it, tonight’s episode inspired F-train to explain to me the effects of crystal meth on a U.S. President.

I loved the homage to Saw. I screamed like a little girl when the camera panned to the dismembered arm…even though I called it when CTU kept saying Gredenko was behind the door.
AHHHHHHHHHHH

I also love that the end with Gredenko under the pier is like a hat tip to the Soprano’s own mortally wounded Russian dude.

We didn’t get very much Jack action — though his flying kick to the face of Fayed was cool (Ftrain was all “didn’t Jack just get a bomb to the stomach at the Russian embassy, how is he running around…to which I replied “dude, one year Jack died in hour eight, shook it off and went another 16…a bomb is nothing.”) Oh yeah, and if you didn’t notice…my once 8 or 9 person 24 watching crew has now been diminished to me and F-train sitting on the couch scracthing our heads in a monkey like fashion.

(Afterward, we watched the South Park episode that makes fun of 24.)

What’s with Ricky Schroder trying to convince Naughtyia that he’s a good guy? Smells like mole to me. Although I was kinda hoping that Milo or Morris would be the mole so we wouldnt have to see then next season…OH MY GOD! Could Chloe be the mole??? Like she was all mad that they were going to trade Jack to be killed that she lost it? They’ve gotten rid of all the other previous season’s cast members…how did potato face survive?

What else? I was looking forward to meeting the Supreme Court in the 24verse (oh and what lawyer didn’t love that Regina King was handwriting her brief to the Supreme Court on a notepad…even though it was due at the court “in fifteeen minutes” ahahahahah was she gonna rip the sheets off and staple them together? It’s the WHITE HOUSE, SIT YOUR ASS AT A COMPUTER!!!

Speaking of which, how has Tom Lennox been elevated from treason suspect to master of the White House? He runs the Amendment 25 hearing, he blackmails the VP, he’s on the phone with the Supreme Court? What the hell?? And I’m still not sure that he’s not evil.

Oohh…maybe Palmer has a twin?? Maybe they swapped him with the twin? I dunno…I guess crystal meth is seeming more plausible by the second.

    What’s that down below and behind 24? Ohyeah, it’s the shark. Nice leap, Bauer.

    I also never realized that National Security Advisor was a cabinet-level position…

    I await the season where Jack has sex with some chick in hour 1, and by hour 23 the baby is being delivered!

    I think it’s pretty obvious what’s going on here. President Palmer’s doctor is really….NINA MYERS IN DISGUISE. which makes sense on basically EVERY level. and is a lot more fun than, say, assuming that the show just plain sucks this season.
