Seeing the Lost thread made me realize that 24 is just around the corner. In fact, 24: Season 8 starts even sooner as Jack's first 4 hours being on January 17. I'm not sure if there's anything "new" they can really do with the show anymore but my mancrush on Jack Bauer will keep me watching til the series ends.

Season 8 Trailer

I found a long trailer from ComicCon but it's crappy quality so I won't bother posting it.

Definitely start at season 1. If you enjoyed last season enough that you want to watch more, then you will be blown away by the earlier seasons. In other words, last season was a bit over the shark. I guess if you hadn't seen earlier seasons though then you wouldn't be annoyed by the same things happening again.

I would just start at season 1 and go from there. Season 5 is also really good, but season 6 is like Godfather III - people just pretend it didn't happen.

Yeah - he's awful.

I like the new look of CTU - of course, they'll still have a mole I'm sure.

Don't really like the new look of Kim

Glad to see that Chloe got a lot of face time

I actually thought of Eugene Victor Tooms so he could have squeezed his way into the UN, no need to take the place of that other guard.

Yep, her character has something to prove.



Not a bad first 4 hours. We all know the show has degenerated somewhat from a few years ago, but it still beats most crap on TV.

Storylines seem ok. I'm a little curious what's up with Dana (Jenny)'s goofy redneck jailbird ex and how/if he's gonna fit into the storyline. She obv has a past she wants to stay covered up. Is she a mole inside CTU or is she straight now but her past will get leaked and make her look like a mole?

Glad to see a lot of Chloe.

Agreed that Kim looked as crappy as she did last season. Don't think we're gonna see a ton of her anyway this season. She's doing another show on NBC.

Last season Renee started crying whenever there was any violence, Jack had to ask her about 5,000 times if she was ok, now we're supposed to believe that she was undercover with Russians for six years. I don't think so, 24.

Yea, plus she tried to kill herself over torturing a guy to stop a biological attack that would have killed millions and toppled the US government?


I played golf with Mykelti Williamson years ago.

He's a nice guy over all. Has NO short game at all. Cute family.

I wish he would pull the stick out of his rear and loosen up a bit though.
