Hey, look! It's 24, the pro-torture show. Another crap-tastic display of some of the most corny acting I've ever seen with the most contrived, ridiculous plot scenarios since 'Point Break'.

Dear admins, you know I'm a very tolerant person and love to joke around. I also have not asked for anything ever before.

BAN THIS FUCKER. Thank you!

I just saw the latest episode and
God damn it Tony, I'm pissed and confused at Tony Almeida.

picolas · April 14, 2009, 04:31:48 PM

i think the only explanation is he's still a double agent working the bad guys. he knew whatshisface was going to die either way so he had to sell it to the goon. there's just no way he would successfully detonate the missiles if he wasn't really with the good guys.

Kal · April 15, 2009, 05:07:34 AM

I hope so because if not I will be pissed.

It was a pretty good episode. Good to have Kim back. That scene was heavy.

Fernando · April 15, 2009, 03:11:22 PM

yeah, it was a great episode but it's a pretty lame twist to make almeida bad 'again', ill keep watching but to me that was really disappointing.

ill take a wild guess at how the next six hours will be, ill separate them in three segments:

- 1st two hours. almeida stays double agent, kim tries to save dad, jack's recovery under way.

- 2nd two hours. jack suspects of almeida, more white house confusion, kim might get in trouble by the end of the 4th hour.

- 3rd two hours. jack is totally recovered, almeida on the loose, country at highest stake, kim's future in danger, jack saves the day but...tee tum tee tum tee tum.

I agree with pretty much everything there.

SPOILERS

I read an interview with Carlos Bernard were apparently shows that he stays bad and it was not a simple twist, but something that was planned all the way into Season 8. Also, another article said that in Season 8, the setting will be NYC, and that CTU will be back under new management and with Chloe back in her old post.

Hope that hit comes back and bites the first daughter right on the ass for being a terrible character and bad acting.

SiliasRuby · May 07, 2009, 11:03:25 AM

She is gorgeous though. Was actually the sexiest of Claire's college room mates on 'six feet under'. Oh, Sprague, how I love thee.
