  My dad actually wept when 24 ended. XD
  
  I think it'd be awesome if the 24 movie consisted of Jack passed out on a couch somewhere sleeping it all off, then waking up and going to the store for eggs to poach for breakfast and punching the shit out of express-line cheaters.

  Agreed on President Logan, man. He's a fuckin' AMAZING villain! I can only hope he comes back for the movies and finally, finally gets total revenge against Jack. He's already survived one ambiguous 'death' before, so a bullet to the head is nothing. Now he can be like Renard in The World Is Not Enough.

  QFT on the stupid hillbilly subplot. I too hit the FF button every time that shit came up. What a poor use of Starbuck. Anyway, I gave up halfway thru the season, more because I kept falling behind, but I intend to catch up with it later. Jack turning into Jason X sounds like a must see. Part of me is glad that the show is over, because there just wasn't much to look forward to with each season anymore besides more of the same.

  Back in the day I watched two whole episodes of 24 and I wans't hooked. At all. Over the years I'd flip the channel to 24 and watch it for like five minutes to see if I was missing anything, but no... wasn't missing anything. Everytime I ever see anything from 24, it's something utterly boring. Yet people tell me it's like the most intense fucking show ever... I don't get it.

  I thought Season 2 was the best but there have been great moments throughout most of the series.
  Last Season seemed to go on forever but had its moments aswell.
  President Logan..ya easily the best villain in that show..

  Indeed! It got much more interesting when President Hassan and Renee Walker were assassinated and then the whole cover up ordeal... Damn, Jack couldn't catch a break! Loved it when Jack went "Army of Two" on Logan's ass, heh!

  I agree that this felt more like a season finale than a series finale, and for a moment I really thought Jack was going to kill himself, I don't know WHY I thought that lol. The hillbilly girl's criminal past subplot was just horrid, now that I think back on it, there was really no purpose for it other than to pad out the running time. And this season, I really felt that Chloe took way more control than she usually did, very badass. I will definitely be seeing the "24" movie. I just hope it actually happens rather than it being theoretical like the "Arrested Development" movie.

     It was a show about counter terrorism following an antihero named Jack Bauer who protects the US from bad guys. You can google 24 or Jack Bauer and get more information.

  I picked up 24 season 1,2, and 3, I got to about the 16th hour of season 1 and had to shut it off, Kim is a dumbass, and I couldn't stand it any more.
  
  But I watched 24 starting with season 5, so I was expecting season 1 to be as good, I guess now I know why it wasn't.
  
  Thanks to you Brad I will have to bite the bullet, and get through the seasons to see Hardcore Jack take on a motorcade.

  I agree that it didn't feel like a final season or series finale. I also knew they couldn't kill Jack off since they were planning movies afterwords.
  
  I guess for what it was, it was satisfying, but yeah, the first half of the season was pretty weak.
  
  I agree that season 6 kind of went wrong somewhere. That was the only season I considered stop watching in the middle. But season 7 was actually a nice rebound.
  
  And again I agree that they basically did the same plot for 8 seasons and it would've been nice to see them change it up a bit. I think that the first 3 seasons tried to do that (S1 - more personal, Jack's family gets kidnapped; S2 - first season about nuclear terrorism w/ sinister corporate backers; S3 - first half focused on drug lords and Jack's drug habit) but even then there were certainly some plot points they kept repeating (mole in CTU) that I wish they would drop in favor of something fresh and new.
  
  So yeah, 24 was good but it could've been so much better than it was a lot of the time.

  I only watched the first season of 24.
  I have it on DVD.
  The way it is written, you really dont need to keep watching any more seasons. Its a comeplete story and the end left nothing to be seen really. (Wont spoil it but the first seasons story does end which is odd for a TV show IMO).
  
  I always liked the concept of 24 (how it all takes place in one day) but I never understood how its gone on so long. Since I dont know, this is an honest question, are each season just the next day? Or does a certain amount of time actually lapse between each season?
  Ah well, anyway, I like Jack Bauer's Character and the first season was a great watch but I just never got around to watching anymore of it. It never sucked me in to feeling like I had to watch another season.

  I rank the 24 seasons, from best to worst, as follows:
  
  1. Season 1
  This season is the one that feels the most cohesive to me, and also the most exciting and unique. It features the best uses of the split-screen technique, the most interesting sub-plots, and one of the most disturbing murder scenes in the entire series.
  
  2. Season 5
  
  No need to expound, really. This is the season that scored all the Emmys. Best overall story, best villains, best guest-stars (I think the entire cast of Robocop has been on this show), best action scenes, and one of the most shocking opening episodes of tv I've ever seen.
  
  3. Season 3
  
  Half the season takes place in a hotel where everyone is dying slowly and painfully. The federal government is issuing them suicide pills. Damn.
  
  4. Season 4
  
  The only exception to the odds-over-evens pattern. Some great acting in this one (William Devane and Shohreh Aghdashloo are particularly awesome) and some really killer set-pieces make up for an otherwise standard overall plot.
  
  5. Season 7
  
  This season was a good return to form after season 6. The constant shifts in narrative direction (from African dictator to American private security firm to all-powerful cabal of businessmen) and all-to-quick resolutions of potentially compelling plot devices (the siege on the White House, the James Bond supervillain compound complete with missile silos) made this a more over-the-top, ridiculous, but incredibly entertaining season.
  
  6. Season 8
  
  The send-off season that wasn't. Brad's right. Though this show was past its expiration date, it should have had a final season that was fully set up to be one. Though satisfying, it was a tale of two halves. I liked that it began with a small-scale assassination plot, much like the first season. 24 got too big. Everything's a national threat or a global threat. Of course, it became a global threat quickly, but it did so with the same rapid-fire excitement of season 7, and it sent Jack on a blood rage unlike anything we'd seen before. And it sent him off in style... until the movie. Bring it on!
  
  7. Season 2
  
  Such a disappointment. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy it immensely. I love that Jack decapitates a guy in the very first episode. I love that it sets off a nuke and crashes a plane and gets Kim's boyfriend's leg chopped off. But fuck the abusive psychotic dad trying to kill Kim, fuck the cougar trap, fuck Sherry Palmer, fuck Jack's heart problems, fuck the little brat Kim's trying to protect, fuck Kevin Dillon. Kim shouldn't have been in this season. But hell, Hawk The Slayer is in it, so it's not all bad. All kidding aside, it's not bad... just not as good as what it followed.
  
  8. Season 6
  
  Bad with a capital B. The first 6 episodes are decent, but once Dr. Bashir gets blown up, it's all downhill. It wastes James Cromwell, Powers Booth, Peter MacNicol, the melting dude from Robocop... And seriously, fuck Rick Schroeder. Fuck him!!! At least they blew up his eyes...

  I think 24 is shit I watched season one and liked it even though it had pretty ridiculous plot devices like Jacks wives having amnesia for a matter of hours and the stereotypical Serbian villain who the Serbs were fighting Osama Bin Ladin and the Bosnian Islamic regime of Izetbegovic who gave citizenship to Atta and KSM and transferred funds to Atta in the US so it would have been more realistic if it was a Bosnian Muslim villain.

  Although that is not common knowledge and only revealed in defence journals and publications so I guess the writers can be forgive with a villain audiences can relate to.

  After watching the some episodes of the second season I got bored I realised this is the same thing all over again. Frankly I am amazed it lasted more than 5 seasons.

  Yeah, I couldn't get into this season at first, gave up on it, then came back as soon as I heard Logan was back. I don't feel like I missed anything and I had a great time.
  
  That bit where he shrieks "He's coming for me!" was incredible.
  
  Personally, I was hoping they'd just go balls out in the final episode with a showdown between Jack and Logan. Do some crazy, Crank level shit: Have Jack stuff a grenade in Logan's mouth, jump-kick him in the head so he does a backflip, then the grenade goes off, sends the body spinning in the opposite direction... then Jack kicks him AGAIN.
  
  But I guess that'd be difficult to do on, you know, a television budget.
