Wonder if it'll be like last year when the first 4 episodes were leaked onto the net 24 hours before airing

I believe so - in the trailer for Day 8 Jack is talking to Kims little girl.
"You should call me Granddad"
"But you dont look like other Granddads"

Tony's dead.. but he isn't. He's bad, but he's good, but he's bad, but he's good.
Kim is fit, as is Renee.

The new President is ace, her daughter is a nasty piece of work.
Her husband can fight off and kill a secret service agent while he is drugged.

Special agent Pierce is back and at some point his arm is in a sling.

Did I miss much??

Forgot about Renee...the way those jeans hugged her arse when she had to swim for safety

YES starts again tonight!
Probably will watch it online tomorrow morning.

Must admit, I didn't think much of the first couple of episodes. Its becoming a bit of a parody. CTU now have a drone pilot that spends his time spying on women in bikinis. Nice. Oh, and Percy from The Green Mile as a bad guy?? I could believe he'd want to step on Mr Jingles, but a Russian terrorist is pushing it a bit

liverpool1691 · « **Reply #50 on:** January 18, 2010, 03:42:34 pm »

I thought the premiere was OK. Nothing special but I reckon it's gonna get a lot better.
Renee Walker is coming back in tonights episodes I think as well.

gerrardisgod · « **Reply #51 on:** January 18, 2010, 06:24:47 pm »

Too many new characters, hard to feel anything for anyone other than Jack and Chloe. Bubba ain't up to much as Hastings either.

Give it a few more episodes to bed the new characters in before any judgement though.

Hannibal · « **Reply #52 on:** January 18, 2010, 07:02:29 pm »

Pretty generic start to the season. People in charge are still retards and don't listen to Jack even though he's saved the US 7+ times in the past. When's Renee gonna show up? I demand more Rack Bauer.

I'd say thats fair

Its been a slow start. No action scene in the 2nd episode at all

I dont like the new modern CTU. Looks too modern to be realistic. I mean sliding pod doors for interrogation rooms, Palm prints for room access.

Also dont like that Chloe is at the bottom of the pile. She has been here for nearly a decade and after less than 6 months away from CTU and she now knows nothing and is being threatened with the sack.

Oh and the pervy drone operator wont last the day.

But

Ortiz is very cool (Definatly the new Curtis) and

Spoiler

Axe to the chest

Classic 24

Oh and you know that if Jack was dreaming about killing terrorists before he got woken up by his grandaughter he would have snapped her neck

hahaha. Pretty much exaclty how I felt. I even typed the CTU looking too modern and "fae"...i then deleted that paragraph thinking "maybe it's just me"

Agree with the spoiler...it made me lol when i saw it. Classic Jack

Oh I do like new blonde CTU filth (of course she has some secret that will endanger national security soon enough

)

Renee will ruin her

buzzing · « **Reply #57 on:** January 19, 2010, 12:08:05 am »

Yep. Renee was going all 'Jack' towards the end of last series. Hope she comes back and opens a can of "whoop ass"

4 episodes in and I've like it so far except for the Katee Sackhoff storyline. Yet another CTU employee with a mysterious/tedious/unbelievable past. Doesn't this organisation ever do background checks on it's own staff.

Probably to represent how fucked up it is in real life when someone can walk in a plane with explosive...but she is hot though :p

I know I'm going to get slammed for this, but I haven't watched previous series of 24. Always had the intention to, but never got around to it.

Can I just pick it up from the latest series? Or do I need to go back and start from the beginning.

Ferg · « **Reply #64 on:** January 19, 2010, 02:27:13 pm »

You could start from this season, but you wouldn't know what the history is between Jack and Reneé.

I'd never watched it either, unitl last summer. I got bored with nothing to watch and decided to give it a go. Watched all 7 seasons in a space of 3 weeks, do it if you can......you won't regret it!

On the new season so far.....

Spoiler

More of the same, which is ok with me. Chloe treated like shit....she'll show 'em! Go Chloe! Oh and the new phone ring NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO no more duh duh....duh duuuuuuuuh! That's not right...

nah u can just pick it up...just a few bits that pops up in the conversation of the actors but Ive watched all the season and I still struggle to remember. But you might be better off catch up the previous season and by the time u finish the new season will end and you dont need to wait a week to know what happen

Tommy_W · « **Reply #67 on:** January 19, 2010, 04:48:20 pm »

Gotta love how Bauer was on TV only last season in Congressional Hearings etc and yet CTU still put the bloke undercover. Hehehe

Chivasino · « **Reply #68 on:** January 19, 2010, 06:41:06 pm »

Cheers, fellas. Need to find the time to catch up I guess.

Jack Bauer is awesome.

Consider yourself caugth up on the previous 7 series.

Shouldn't be too hard to jump straight in to be honest.

Enjoyed the first hour, hopefully get round to watching the second later on.

Said it last season. Renne is the women version of Bauer....that hand chop and the end...that had me laughing and clapping..."now that's jack style"

I think I became a little obsessed with it doing it that way, but it was great! And the phone thing is still just not right, I've got it as a ringtone on my own phone.....think I might have to play it every time the phone rings on 24

I am so sad aren't I?

I envy you-coz you're in for a treat. Personally I would start with the fantastic Season 1, Season 2 was not quite quite up there but still good, Season 5 was brilliant, then watch Season 7 as a backdrop to Season 8.

That should keep you busy

Walshy nMe® · « **Reply #79 on:** January 22, 2010, 08:54:03 am »

Watched the first 4 back to back, was a good start. Think the blonde CTU bird is a bit of a dick, but glad that Renee Big Tits made it back.
