24: Season 5: 3PM - 4PM

Finally watched it last night. I'm a fan of the DVR.

1) This season is like terrorist hot potato. First one guy has the canisters and the chips. Then another guy. Then another guy. It's like a big network of terrorists.

2) And every guy in this network is fully stocked. Green screens, headsets, stashed phones inside pay phone booths that pursuing CTU agents can attach, weapons, knives, canisters. They've got it all. They make the 9/11 hijackers look like amateurs.

3) Lynn's sister is the most haggard character I've ever seen. They didn't even have to make her up. Good grief. And they have his key pad. Or some sort of key. Or an ID card. Maybe they'll sell it off to DOD Devane's druggie son just to tie this all into last year.

4) To work at CTU, you either have to be
a) Psycho (Chloe)
b) Related to a Psycho (Lynn, the woman from last year whose daughter went nuts)
c) A Mole (Nina, Chloe's boy toy)
d) A pretend mole (the guy who got gassed in the hotel ventilation last year)
e) Kick ass (Clarence, Tony, Jack)
When you think about it, the most normal people there have been Michelle, Buchanan, and Edgar. Speaks volumes.

5) How about the shooting percentage of the guys in the warehouse going after whats-his-name (the guy who left the earphone for Jack)? That was like in Rambo when ol' Rambo marched against the bad guys ... hundreds of them ... they all missed while Rambo picked 'em off one-by-one.

6) I want to be at a poker table with President Logan.

7) Have to admit, those glasses give Audrey a pretty funky look. That's what this show is missing this year, though...the bonafide hottie. Where's the hottie uber-terrorist again? Did she get killed or locked up? I forget. First Lady Cleavage isn't doing it for me.

8) No, that's not an invite for the return of Kim, although it is inevitable.

9) Where was Edgar? Is 3-4PM his designated lunch hour at the CTU cafeteria, or did he head out to the CTU convenience store?

10) Next week: Lynn goes over the edge, Curtis...fresh off getting put to sleep by Jack...kicks Lynn's ass...and will the President make a decision whether or not to allow Russians to pick off his wife...let's hope he tells the terrorists to eliminate the psycho. It would be the first decision he's ever made.
