Great Show, Horrible DVD, 2009-01-02
I've only watched the first 3 seasons so far. They're all great... The problem with the DVDs are on the menu. br / br /Almost every disc's and episode's menu, show an image of something important in one of the upcoming episodes. So, you, pretty much, know what's going to happen, and it can really ruin the show. br / br /I've been putting my hand in front of my face to block the top half of the screen, while switching to the next episode. It actually works alright, but you have to remember, each time, to do it. Be careful... br / br /They could've, at least, included a "Play All" feature for each disc. br / br /Anyway, the only problem I had with Season 2 was with Kim Bauer (Jack's daughter). She gets herself into many ridiculous situations. It was a little far-fetched, as were a couple other moments... But I still love the show.

24 Season 2, 2008-10-21
Glad to be able to watch something other than sports so selling the seasons of our favorite shows that are on too late at night is a great idea.

This is the best season of 24, 2008-09-08
From the mind blowing opening, to the demise of Mason, the introduction of Dessler, the plot twists that keep twisting until the final moment, season two is the greatest of 24. The only weakness is the sub-plot about Kim's adventures as a nanny.

Best Drama on the Tube, 2008-08-16
I discovered 24 through the DVD. While I was skeptical at first, after finishing just disc one I was hooked. The formula works. It's literally the ticking time bomb. But what really carries the show is the script and the superb acting. br / br /No one really chews the scenery but rather underplays the tension. President Palmer is the lynch pin of the cast and the plot. br / br /While at times Bauer's daughter Kim seems to go from the frying pan into the fire, it does make you want to scream at the screen and shout, "Don't go in there, Kim." But the other subplots are skillfully written and stitched together nicely. br / br /The character of George Mason makes the biggest character arc and probably should have received at least an Emmy nod for his role. br / br /I only wish more television was of this caliber. br /

24 Tips: The Best Way to watch this Fantasy Series., 2008-07-12
This Series is pure FANTASY. In order to watch it, you have to actively suspend your disbelief. If you can't, you will not be able to watch it. Now, Keifer Sutherland is a superb actor. He plays Super Man Jack Bauer...an indestructible SuperHero with unlimited Super Powers: never gets hurt, travels at the speed of light, can hit any target with a pistol, is the most intelligent person ever created... etc. Only Jack Bauer, singlehandedly, can save the World! All the Villains are intensely Evil. If you like watching Bad Guys..specifically, Terrorist Moslems getting killed you will love this Series.. and that is a big plus. The Villains also has Superhero Powers and intelligence..however I guarantee you will get sick of Nena Myers popping up again and again and pray that she gets killed... The actress who plays Agent Michelle Gessler is the worse Actress that has ever appeared in the history of TV. She makes all these weird faces in an attempt to portay seriousness... it just makes her look mentally deranged. The actor who plays Tony Almeda is almost as Bad. They both reappear in Season 4, at about the same time...I am sure you will be disgusted with these two. After watching Four Seasons, I recommend you watch each Season as fast as you can. Otherwise, any person with average intelligence will lose interest...if you have time to think about the Plot you wil realize that "24" is really just a TV Comic Book: Superhero against SuperVillain... it is Fantasy with a big dose of Violence...and that's what the viewing public seems to want.
