Just realized that the boyfriend who was the Russian spy was Michael Shanks (aka Daniel Jackson) from Stargate SG-1.

Anyways, the sudden return of Jack's father, as well as the sudden appearance of those guys from Division (who can seriously impede thier efforts to retrieve the circuitboard)...seems like too much of a coincidence I think.

Well, VP took a gamble...and it didn't pay off. But now he's actually considering giving up Josh to get the circuit board back??? WTF?!?

Damn, I miss the old days of watching this show, sitting on the edge of the seat, then have that yellow digital clock tick over to the hour, and be like "FUCK!!!!!!!!!".. Just dying to see the next episode..

Nowadays, it's like "I"m bored, might as well watch 24 since nothing else is on".

Actually, hired(and copied)the first 5 seasons worth of DVDs, so my wife could watch them with Japanese Subs, but don't think I'll bother with Day 6... (I'm not that mean to my wife..)

^yeah, this season...other than the first few eps, the fayed fight, and the milo death, it was bleh.

Has your wife enjoyed or watched 24 yet, Guchi?

We sat and watched seasons 1~4 in a month, which was around 3 episodes a day, and she was really into it. Had to wait awhile for season 5 to come out here, and we both thought it was pretty weak season. (this one is A LOT worse!!!!)

Coming to think of it, don't think they showed season 5 on TV here like they did for 1~4...
(hate watching western stuff on TV here, because they never use subs for tv shows, and always use bilingual, so you can choose English or Japanese dub)

A nerve gas attack last season and a gang of kidnappers this season. Man, breaking into CTU has become almost as easy as getting into a H!P girl's womb.

And my gut is telling me Jack is going to turn out to be Josh's biological father bcuz that family ain't fucked up enough as is.

Asmodai · « **Reply #86 on:** May 17, 2007, 03:48:25 PM »

CTU gets blown up / infiltrated every season. Even in the first there were multiple murders.

CTU needs (1) locks on their doors, (2) competent security and (3) to be located some place away from L.A. I'll stick with my earlier suggestion of Nebraska.

And of course Jack is the kid's biological father, he's Jack Bauer, his sperm is manly enough to work retroactively.

The finale was... mediocre.

Chloe is pregnant. I wish I was the Daddy.

Jack is all emo again 'cause his girlfriend's dad told him off.

They never did resolve what happened to Palmer, or the President before him who got stabbed.

It was a little weird that the Russian President said he hoped Palmer was feeling better, but didn't say anything about THE NUKE THAT WENT OFF IN LA THAT MORNING. It's like everyone on the show forgot the first half of the season even occurred. I bet the fans wish they could too.

FUCKIN' HATED THIS SEASON!!!!

The story was weak, things weren't completed and left you in the dark (probably because the writers didn't know where they were going with it)..

Wouldn't be surprised if Wayne Palmer suggested the relapse just to get off the show.. Then Milo thought "Damn, Wayne was smart!"... "Hey Mr.Writer, can I get shot in the head?" Fuck knows, I wish I was after watching this...

Well, this season has made one thing quite clear for me...Sleeper Cell is a MUCH better show!!

Can't say I hated this season but it definitely wasn't one of their better ones. I still enjoyed it though. The ending was a little blah and leaves you hanging but somehow although it didn't bring closure to much I still thinks its refreshing as opposed to Jack being kidnapped or the vice president getting poisoned or something crazy happening at the end as with most the previous season finales.

JFC · « **Reply #90 on:** May 22, 2007, 11:08:29 PM »

Like Asmo said, the ending was...mediocre. Too many plotholes were left open IMO. I cheered when they revealed Chloe was pregnant (I mean c'mon, after the dizzy spells she had how could you NOT see it coming), but it just seems like they tacked it on at the end to have some type of happy-type element to the ending.

Daniels realizes that there's a difference between being an armchair QB, and actually BEING the QB. Good thing I say, gives him a little humility.

Jack's tantrum against Heller caught me by surprise, to be honest. Again, it just seemed like something that they tacked on at the end.

And talk about an ambiguous final scene...it's like, was Jack gonna jump? Was he gonna go back to CTU or just disappear? WTF? If he does disappear again, will next season be "Mike Doyle's" story?

Depends on salary negotiations.

^ If I remember correctly the contract is for another season anyway, and this might be the 'cliff hanger' to it, otherwise why end it this way??

And there might have been time for his father to jump down? (the sub could have been there in time still) plus he was only shot in the shoulder.

Asmodai · « **Reply #93 on:** May 23, 2007, 12:42:11 PM »

Yep. Jack committed the standard TV stupidity of leaving your enemies around. If he had taken the 3 seconds to put a bullet through his Dad's head he could save himself a lot of sleepless nights (and his nephew too).

The worst season of this great TV series is finally over!

Reanimation · « **Reply #95 on:** May 24, 2007, 01:03:32 AM »

i hope the movie will make up for it.

Tuffty · « **Reply #96 on:** June 05, 2007, 06:42:07 PM »

What a disappointing season. It started off promisingly, but you could tell the writers were making it up as they went along. The Milo/Nadia love story was tedious and pointless, plotlines were left hanging open (what did happen to ex-President Logan? Or Wayne's sister? Or her bf that got put in that jail? Or worse yet, what about the actual President of the US?), Jack was shown as a parody of himself sometimes but the worst of all has to be Doyle. I really did not like him, in fact, I cheered when the bomb went off and blinded him. Hopefully that will be him out of it. The season also contained the worst episode and also the most bizarre, when Jack had to help and depend upon the special needs guy. So out of place. The finale wasn't the best either (I don't think anything will top the Season 1 finale). I will have to depend upon the writers when they say next season will have a different scenario and actually be finished before they start filming. I just don't want to see Jack vs Terrorists with several WMD's yet again.

^ yes, even one second of Kim would have lifted the score up with several points, speaking if which... Elisha has some strange movie coming up it looks like (some saw nock-off?): 'Captivity' http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0374563/

solar2504 · « **Reply #98 on:** June 13, 2007, 05:45:07 AM »

At the very end when Jack was standing by the water I thought to myself that it would be awesome if he had put a gun to his head, then the screen fades to black with the clock and then all you hear is a gunshot.

That would have owned.

Tuffty · « **Reply #99 on:** July 13, 2007, 01:30:41 PM »

Could Jack be the bad guy next season?
