    Sam is gone...Way to redeem himself...Overall, pretty good, but next week looks awesome...I thought Jack was about to kick some psychologist ass...Kim is nice, but she isn't as hot as she was, but still hot...

    As great as this season has been, I'm gonna think a lot less of it if Tony's really dead. What a pathetic way to go out. Even Rudy went out like a hero, and in the same episode no less.

    I loved her reply to psychologist, " What's with you and the breathing? Is that your solution to everything?"

    I don't think they're going to kill him off with that.

    Did anyone see Google Earth on one of the screens?

    The sexy brunette stepped away from the guy in bed and there it was.

    I don't think Kim is very attractive. I find it weird that she dies her hair blonde, but has dark brown eyebros. I thought she looked hot in Old School, but now I think shelooks like a doofus. Plus her character on the show is a dimwit who is always in trouble somehow, whether it is her fault or not!

    Im seriously going to be pissed if Tony died. Why the hell didnt he just use the gun instead of that needle thingy? For some reason I hope that Tony isnt dead..... That would seriously put a damper on the season for me.

    I mean was that the most depressing hour and 3 minutes (Edgar's death included) of 24 ever? Geeze Im seriously getting worn out on EVERYONE DYING! Cant they contrive something cooler? The season was going strong until this episode..... One word: weak. The President, VP, Novik, and the First Lady storyline seems even lamer.....

    UGH...... Im getting tired of this show. :confused:

    i agree. If tony is really dead, i think this might be 24's last season. They may as well kill jack off (no pun intended). This is quickly becoming the less of all the seasons. I recently watched the entire season of sleeper cell ... that was much more enjoyable. 24 theme made jack bauer. now jack bauer makes 24. Time for a change of pace.

    'Sleeper Cell' is a GREAT series...the plot is much more 'realistic' and also the show is much more detailed and the characters more thorough than any other show on TV.

    If you haven't already, catch 'Sleeper Cell' on Showtime.

    What an awfully weak way to go. And if you ever need to seal a hatch from poisonous gas, make sure you have duct tape around.

    Hello foreign chick!! :eek:

    Sleeper Cell is a great series. I got to meet Alex Nesic- he plays the French guy on the show, a few months ago when I was back in the European lowlands.

    It's already renewed for next season and producers have already discussed some of the things they're looking at doing. This is not the last season, and for my money's worth, this is looking like the best of all the seasons. It's fantastic.

    I actually like how Tony went out. If there's one weak aspect to this show (and it's been commented on before), it's how main characters seem to always avoid the gunfire that happens on an almost hourly basis during this show and how the spare parts continue to take the bullet. This shows that anyone is vulnerable, and anyone - even a lead character - can go at any time. It doesn't always have to be a heroic death, and from a realism standpoint, I like that.

    If these guys can hold their breath for a minute or more as Lynn and Weeny Security Guard Man did, why the hell not get out of the building? They clearly did not show any symptoms until they breathed the gas, so instead of sitting there like a dumbass waiting to die, why didn't WSGM bolt for an exit once Lynn opened the door? None of the exits were sealed or locked as people were escaping the building earlier.

    As I understood it, people were escaping the building before the nerve gas reached that floor or area. I assumed this episode that they couldn't open the doors or they would risk contaminating the outside, much like how they secured the exits of the Chandler Plaza Hotel in Season 3. I realize that was slightly different, given that people didn't show symptoms of the virus immediately, but the situation was similar.

    Makes sense, I guess. But it seems like that gas would disperse pretty quickly in the outdoors and wouldn't pose a risk. Then again, what do I know about nerve gas?

    Absolutely! I love the show, although I think the storylines are getting old. Mole in CTU. Attack CTU. Find terrorist. Torture terrorist. Leads to new terrorist. Replace CTU head with idiot. Idiot learns that Jack is cool. Add bigger and bolder terrorist attacks for next season. Repeat any or all of the above.

    I think the show needs something new or needs to die off. It's losing its creative edge. I find myself more interested in Lost now (and Prison Break, if it ever comes back).
