As someone who switched from watching 24 over to Heroes, I’ll never look back. Heroes, IMHO, is about the best hour of TV going.

Like Lorie, I’m very underwhelmed this season and it seems you all are too.

I stopped watching several weeks ago when it was clear that the show was being written by CAIR and the DNC, with Karen Hayes being a Nancy Pelosi surrogate. This season has been a huge disappointment.

I don’t know what they can do with next season unless they kill Jack this season…which is what it’s looking like.

Hehe, I skipped this week’s episode again. I haven’t watched for 3 weeks now.

A good friend is addicted to ’24′. I watched for the first couple seasons, but grew weary of Jack Bauer constantly begging fellow employees to do something ‘shady’, then when they waffle, screaming at them to, ‘DO IT, NOW!!!!’ So…I haven’t watched since.

Anyhow, Vic Mackey would totally kick Jack Bauer’s ass!!!!!

I’m in for the long haul as well. I do admit that this season hasn’t been their best but here’s hoping Mr. Surnow is reading this. ;) Terrorists/badguys don’t always have to threaten humanity to be terrorists/badguys. Love interests are interesting but when every member of the cast is actively trying to get in the pants of the other members it is not only confusing but also irritating.

I don’t know what they can do with next season unless they kill Jack this season…which is what it’s looking like. Ricky is actually impressing me in his role(ducking for cover). Could 24 survive the death of Jack? Is that the jumped shark?

jatfla, TOTALLY I agree with you! I don’t think this is boring – in fact, if you don’t have personal relationships to sacrifice, the impending doom on some is not worth worrying about. I’lll NEVER stray from Jack Bauer, because every year it brings a new surprise(s). Each ‘day’ has multiple plots, twists, turns, etc., and I love the fact they can surprise me. I truly hate predictable scripts/plots, and I never would have guessed they would have invaded CTU this season. That’s why I love it – and why I continue to watch.

thanks to all my friends who watch along with me and don’t wuss out…. ;-P

Please tell me that Grandpa Bauer is going to get ‘whacked’ in the next two episodes. Maybe spend the next episode catching him, and the final episode entirely spent with everyone abusing his corpse, works for me.

Since I’ve never watched “Heroes” and probably never will, I’ll stay very content and happy with “24″. I’m not sophisticated enough to be bored, I guess. :~)

And then all of a sudden, he’s back to an empty pistol. Geeze.

Well, at least Jack FINALLY picked up something with a little more firepower than a pistol during a firefight. How many times has he walked over an MP, an AK, an M-4 etc. when any sensible person would have grabbed one?

*sigh* this week stunk to High Heaven! It isnt entertaining ..it is booooooooooooring
All the lovey stuff is nauseating..the skank assistant who betrayed President Deadwood with Daniel Jackson is terrible!
I will stay with it until the end of this year but honestly, I dont know that I will bother next year. “Heroes” is just too good…instead of watching it weekly online, maybe I just go over to it permanently. I loved “24″ but this year is really, really awful

Let me check some things with you. The Russkies lose 5 suitcase nukes, one of which is used in Los Angeles, we recover them from the jihadis they were sold to, and the Russkies are threatening to get belligerent with us because their Chinese comrades steal a component from us?
Tell me Chloe’s ex doesn’t have an X on his forehead for trying to redeem himself in Chloe’s eyes.
