Season Premiere part 2

Wow oh wow i was on the edge of my seat. That was one of the greatest premierses of any show i have ever seen. the writers of that show are pure genius. i love how the episode incorpateted all those storylines and they all wound up into one at the end, pure genius. i have to tell you though i new curtis would die. after reading TV guide magazines article about 24 which i read at work they alluded to his death. he was acting kind of stubborn. granted hassir is a former terrorsist hes renounced it and trying to help america. i notice that show uses motifs that really hit home, like islamic radicals and nuclear weapons. purely genius. i cant wait till next week

Season Premier part 1

wow what an exciting start. how great was it when Jack bit that guys jugualr vein. it truly brough a tear to my eye. i noticed Jack seems to be a bit scraed maybe anxious. He still is in obvious shock over his torture by the Chinease. I have been doing some reading this weekend and rumor has it that someone else will be killed off a big player. My bet is it will sadly be Curtis. Curtis and Jack this season start experiencing some tension on episode four which may lead to his death. This season will also see the introduction of Jacks brother and father. can't wait for tonight Yayyy

Bauer and Death?..... A true Oxy Moron

2007-01-08T07:41:00.000-08:00

I have heard much speculation on the alleged death of our fellow American and defender of all that is good , Jack Bauer. I truly believe that Jack Bauer will not be killed off in the next season. Jack Bauer is the heart and soul of this nation and without him I truly think this nation will go into a state of depression. Jack Bauer is the Woodie Guthrie of his day keeping the nation linked together at least for one hour of syndication and after that maybe all hell will break loose, but other than that a true peace conoseur'. Jack eats bullets for breakfast and laughs at the face of any possible threat to him.

Jack Bauer and the will of America When the Fox network launched the hit television show 24 ( about the only thing Fox has ever done that was productive), I immediately was drawn to the intense action and drama that was depicted in the show. The show to me represents metaphorically the political struggles that are present within our society. For example at the end of the 5th season Jack is kidnapped by the Chinese which has been an ongoing struggle with himself and the Chinese. I think this symbolizes the struggle with the rising Chinese economy and their potential to one day surpass the American economy. I am dedicated this blog space to the show 24 and to pay homage to pro bally one of the greatest people ever Jack Bauer( and the occasional pogues chat or any other musical discussions). Hopefully after every episode a weekly talk can be initiated to analyze the show.
