Anyone got a favourite 'day' in 24? -First season probably
Favourite episode? -Impossible to say. Maybe in the first season when we find out Nina is EEEEVIL, but mostly for that moment.
Character? -Well Jack obviously. If he was ever shot he'd spit the bullets back out at the bad guys. I also adore Kim. For the baddies, hm.......Nina. Easy choice.
Anything? -Incredible show. Loved the idea behind it, didn't think it would work well. Glad I was wrong.

I tried to watch the first season of 24 - it was hard and unrewarding when you had to miss one episode. it was hard to get back into it once you missed one or two parts. It may be great when you watch it on tape of DVD but to schedule your life around the episodes of 24 so that you'll be able to follow the plot?

Naaaah!

Get a Tivo, it'll solve all your problems. :)

I've only seen the last 2 episodes, but man, after every one I feel like I've just stepped out of a really good movie...that just hasn't ended yet. Great show.

Tivo or DVR (Digital Video Recorder) is a great way to record and later watch 24 -- or any other TV show. Watch it on your time.

I've seen every episode of 24 this season, and I've thoroughly enjoyed it. You have to suspend disbelief a little bit at times, but the twists and turns are wonderful. It's the best thing about Monday, in my opinion.

This is the first time that I'm watching a season of 24. It's pretty good, but I can't help but notice that some of the things happen very quickly...

For example...

12:24pm - Jack calls CTU to arrange for a car to pick him up.
12:26pm - The car arrives.

I can't even pull out of my driveway in 2 minutes, much less travel across L.A.

It's actually easier to miss an episode this season than last. Jack was always trying to play catch up with a different terrorist every week last season. As far as interesting bad guys, I have to say that the Salazar's were an interesting bunch. Last season, it seemed like the show was all action and the criminals kept changing after the Salazar's were killed.

I'd kind of like to see more of Kim & Chase come back at some point and time this season. I really liked the both of them. Of course, seeing Tony Almada back is awesome in itself.

Shame on you for slandering Canada like that. You don't need TiVo. Just call up your local Rogers Cable and get a Digital Box with a digital recorder built in. That's what we do.

Each week we sit down and watch it on Monday. Then, we say,"Oh no! We have to wait another week!"

I was so happy that Barouse did not get shot by his father. It is hard to believe that whats-her-names husband Paul is involved! But WOW she is on her way over there alone...

This can't be good!

Bump to this thread because I'm a HUGE 24 fan! :D It's definitely my favorite TV show right now, for the past 3 1/2 years. I still think seasons 1 and 2 are the best ones though. One of my favorite characters in season 4 is Edgar, I love the way he always says "This is Edgar Stiles" when he answers the phone. Overall he's just a funny character. :D

Ok 24 fans, tonight was a good episode.
That darn CD in the pink case! Next week "a twist so big it will change everything!" Edgar was holding a blue CD case, I wonder if somehow he is bad!? That stealth bomber idea is pretty cool, are they going to launch a nuke at a city?? at Air Force One?? lol.
:D I love this show.

So apparently, next week's episode will have a twist so shocking that FOX will replay the episode three times during the week...what do you think it'll be?

Well...as far as I remember, Jack is back in CTU hands, Beyrus is with the terrorists, and a stealth jet flown by an evil white guy is in the air. So what could the twist be?

I'm thinking it has something to do with Edgar, who was shown at the end unexplicably burning CDs. My guess is that the RIAA is finally on to him and their agents raid CTU for his stash of illegal MP3s.
