  • Summary: The sixth season of the Emmy-winnning series finds hero Jack Bauer in far worse shape than we left him last year, thanks to serving 20 months in a Chinese prison. Fortunately, a new terrorist threat arrives to distract him from his troubles. There's also a new President (D.B. Woodside's Wayne Palmer), but look for previous First Couple Gregory Itzin and Jean Smart to return mid-season.… Expand

    Unlike most serialized dramas of late... "24" continues to do everything right.

    OK - so plausibility is not this show's strong suit. It never has been. This show is about suspense, action and violence. And, as a look at the show's first four hours reveals, all three have been taken up several notches in the series' sixth season.

    The problem with the beginning of "24" isn't the plotting or the rusty acting. It's the pacing, the clunky rhythm of the action-adventure. Thank goodness, the quality of "24" fluctuates, so it has real potential to become great again in future episodes.

    Same ol', same ol'. Yeah, I watched it all, but by the end felt like I'd seen it all before - and just last year. It's just a soap opera with an suitcase nukes. And what did we learn this season? That torture is wrong - if the subject is in the regular cast, otherwise go ahead. I'd like to water-board the creators and see if next season is just another hack-job reshuffle of "previously on 24". Is that all they got?… Expand

    A stupid show, i know when it comes to watching entertainment we are supposed to sometimes just forget about whats realistic, but when there are so many silly things happening its just hard to ignore and it becomes a problem, i'm not asking for a show where everything is ultra-realistic, but atleast believable, this season has been full of so much stupidity throughout that instead of being pulled in and intrigued by it all i've done is laugh at the some of the moronic situations, yes, lets leave a man that has no connection to the government whatsoever in a room alone with a suspect who is still hooked up to a torturing chair, just one of the many idiotic situations in just the first ten episodes, hope it gets better instead of worse.… Expand
