    VS, the show has plenty of holes I will conceed. And those things DO irritate me, but the show IS SMART compared to the traditional fare that is normally on TV. I guess the holes you mention don't bother me as much as Cougar Kim's actions at times.

    Great. What does that tell you about the state of television today? :D


    Kyle Singer must die. If he doesn't have the virus, that's fine. Just drop a piano on his head or something and be done with it. His storyline is tired.

    ... Did everyone hear that Sherry Palmer is coming back? Great news! High fives all around.

    What does it tell me about the state of TV today? Nothing I didn't already know, things dumbed down to the extreme :(

    Agreed, Singer must die. And that "moment" he shared with is parents in the last episode was just painful. We are supposed to feel pitty for your dumb ass? I am still upset that his "girlfriend" didnt let him hang himself in that chamber. I mean, he pretty much put her life in jeopardy! If I was her I would say, you couldn't lose enough oxygen fast enough buddy! Good riddence!

    Sherry Palmer is the uberb!tch. She always adds something to the show. It is just fun to have her on there, stir things up and then the best part of seeing her get her just deserts! Ah, satisfying!

    You know what was EVEN MORE painful to watch? Director Ryan Chappelle's awkward hug with Michelle after she found out about Tony's condition. WTF was up with that? Either the dude is a synthetic android ("replicant" for Deckard :) ), a really bad actor, or has the hots for Michelle. My money is on all three. :)

    Oh. My. God.

    Thank you for mentioning Chapelle's "hug." I was so wierded out and felt like I was back in 6th grade when I fell down the stairs in my rush to World Culture! It was so damn awkward. Gave me the heebee jeebies!

    Sherry's coming back? KICKASS!!! I miss old characters like Nina, Sherry, George Mason, Jack's wife, etc.

    I'm glad they're giving Chapelle more of a role. Enough with Chase and his brooding, O.C.-ish look. I want to old characters back!

    Anyone else sick of Palmer's brother? It's so odd that suddenly he became David's right hand man. What was he doing in Seasons 1 and 2, while Palmer was a senator and president? You'd think he would retain the people who came up with him from his humble beginnings? Bad plot development to suddenly toss in a brother as a trusted advisor, when we'd never heard of him in the previous two seasons.

    I could go on and on and on with this show!

    Twenty Four certainly got a little more interesting tonight.

    I've got one problem with it though. Tony was shot in the neck, had surgery and was back at CTU within a few hours.

    Other than that a pretty good episode.

    LOL. My wife basically said the SAME thing to me.

    My head is slightly spinning right now. I don't know what the hell is going on anymore. Up is down. Black is white. WTF is going on?!?!

    Last year when they found the nuclear bomb with something like 6 episodes left i wondered what the hell could they possibly do.

    After watching this episode i feel the same way. It' definitely taken a different turn.

    Yeah, tonight's episode was VERY interesting. Basically everything we have seen so far this season has been an ENTIRE cover to get Jack back into the Salazar family! :eek: Where do we go from here? And Salazzar's brother has the same "special forces" tattoo as Jack does? WTF!?

    I agree about Tony getting back too soon! WTF!? He should either have been held out until the next 12 hours or just dont have him get shot that seriously. Kinda stupid!

    Loved the fact that Kim was not help hostage very long. You guys know by now how much I hate Kim being "the stupid woman."

    Don't forget, Sherri Palmer will make her return at 10pm, only 2 more weeks!

    There has to be some reason that Chloe was written as such an oddball, quirky character. Maybe she'll go Kevin Spacey style on us like in Usual Suspects.

    But last night's episode was truly amazing. It turned everything UPSIDE DOWN! Why were only Tony, Gael, and Jack in on the whole "let's get him back in good with the Salazars" plot? The president and none of the higher ups knew anything about this? And Gael was so committed to keeping it a secret that he held Kim hostage? There has to be A LOT more going on that we don't know about. I still don't see why Tony wanted Chapelle and even his wife kept out of the loop.

    Suddenly, the season got a LOT more interesting.

    "The Real Life" followed by "24."

    FOX is badass on Tuesday nights!

    Chloe's "frumpiness" gets on my nerves. You just want to punch her in the face! ;)

    I figured something was up with Gael when he didn't kill anyone at CTU, only knocking out those in his way.

    Best episode of the year so far.

    THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Ever since the start of the season, I knew that Chase reminded me of somebody, but I could never put my finger on it.

    It's David Silver during his shaved head years!!!! Man, do I feel better!

    I can just picture Chase singing with Jasper's Law right now!

    That wasnt a special forces tattoo, I think that was a tattoo to show that Jack is part of the Salazar's crime family.
