24: Season One Reviews:
addictive
2009-10-23 - 24 should come with a warning: Beware highly addictive. I don't even know I'm a human being watching this it is so engrossing.
Hang onto your seat!

High Octane Action and Plot Twists
2009-09-24 - From start to finish you are riveted to the unfolding action and drama. There are no boundaries as you roll from hour to hour and never are sated and day truly turns into night. Just when you think you can see the plot direction you swerve 180 degrees into a new situation. Everything happens so quickly there is no time to even attempt to judge whether this is credible or outlandish, it just flows like a raging river.24: Season One (Special Edition)24 - Season Two

The best serialized action epic on TV
2009-09-12 - I won't go into how awesome this show is, because enough people on here have sung the shows praises. If you've never seen 24, the first season is the best place to start. It's not that you need to see the first season to understand the subsequent seasons -- each season is a self-contained story. However, there are some plot twists in season one that will later be referred to in subsequent seasons. So if you don't want to watch any spoilers, start with season one. I got it from an Amazon marketplace seller for about $10. After you're done with season one and wondering whether or not subsequent seasons will live up to such a white-hot start, let me assure you, 24 ages like wine. The series starts out strong and keeps getting edgier and better. I've seen them all and can't wait for season 8 to come out in January!

fun, but am I being brainwashed?
2009-09-09 - This series is fast-paced, addictive, exciting, and fun to watch. However, I notice the recurring theme of "torture is ok, if it has to be done" and "its ok to break the rules/law if you have a good reason". The characters often do have a good reason, but is this show teaching Americans that this is how our governemnt agencies should be expected to operate?
Maybe I'm reading too much into it. Watch it and decide yourself.

Intensely cheesy
2009-07-23 - Suspenseful, in that it requires a complete suspension of disbelief. Sappy, because it uses every overworked plot device and cringe-inducing theatrical effect to club the viewer over the head. (E.g., Jack Bauer periodically takes twenty seconds to grimly canoodle with his equally grim, long-suffering wife as violins swell on the soundtrack). The dreck just marches through these episodes, with one-dimensional characters whose uniform demeanor is either wooden-faced confusion or wooden-faced stoic determination. This, even as the show's writers have them do mindlessly stupid things in order to to get themselves (over and over again) into impossible predicaments. The only redeeming thing about this series is its innovative chronological pacing, showing events in real time over a twenty-four hour day. Too bad the creators didn't bother trying to make it realistic. If the U.S. actually has a counter-terrorism agency staffed with people this moronic, we're done for. Get the hook.
