24 - Season 2 (Slim - Pack) Reviews:
Best US TV Series 
2009-12-21 - Always good and usually great. I can watch again and again, and I do. A thrill a minute for 24 hours. If you watch the whole thing in one sitting it will leave you totally exhausted, as though you had actually been there with Jack as he foils the villains, treacherous co-workers, and incompetent managers.
An Event Better Season, Where Everything Was Turned Up A Notch 
2009-12-12 - This decade has suffered from far too many shows that had a great first season, but started to sink in later seasons. Luckily, 24 avoided this trap, and produced a second season that was largely better than the first. The story provided bigger stakes, and was largely more consistent as well as political than the first. Jack Bauer's character developed, becoming far colder and harsher after the loss of his wife from season 1. Without going too much into details, I was impressed with the stories, how they interwove, and how they were all linked together. That is, with the exception of Kim Bauer, Jack's daughter. This story was boring, bland, detracted from the story, and while it started fairly interesting, got to a point of frustration where I started fast-forwarding as I was so tired of her story (which I have never done in a show before). I feel the writers wanted to keep the family elements from the first season around, but were having severe difficulty making it work. That being said, this season was an improvement over an already great first season, which was already pretty great.
I think its odd how often a show can have a great first season but fall into the sophomore slump for so many modern shows. I'm thrilled that 24 avoided falling into this trap and turned out a season that was better on all fronts than the first. If you enjoyed the first season, you will love the second.
24 season 2
2009-07-14 - if you like 24 you need this- each time I watch I understand and pick up on more. It's like a great book, I can't stop watching for hours. Seller was fast and I highly recommend.
"24" Season Two Slim Pack DVDs 
2009-07-11 - These discs were okay except that, on a couple of them, the Close Captioning (in English) was kind of weird. At the far right side of the bottom of the screen where the dialogue was printed,a word was yellow! I could read the print okay, but it was unusual to have a word or two a different color. Might have been a cheap print job?
Annoying to Access Episodes
2009-06-18 - In the first season, you were given an option of "View all". With this you could conveniently watch all the episodes on that DVD. The 2nd season (and the 3rd season) do not give you this option. After the first episode on a dvd, I tried everything to get back to the menu. Nothing worked. I ended up having to: 1. Stop the DVD. 2. Eject the DVD. 3. Reinsert the DVD. 4. Start the DVD and skip over the warnings, etc., to get to the menu. 5. Select the next episode from the menu. This is extremely irritating and time consuming. It would help if whoever makes these DVD's would make it more convenient for buyers of this series to access the episodes.
