24

I've just finished watching another episode of the biggest adrenaline rush on TV. I sometimes if it's worth putting my "heart" through such emotions. I still don't see how they will tie all the lose ends together in two more hours, but I don't care as long as they don't kill Tony. It seems every season that Tony is going to either be a "mole" or die. I'm afraid that he is going to suffer the latter (for Darel, that means the last choice in the previous sentence). I will be more mad if they do this to Tony, than even season 1, when they killed off Terry. This show has a way of making sure that no couple ever survives.

The show has a missle that we have not been able to find on some kind of satellite, or radar for the past hour. The show has a habit of using so much technology, but they can't find this thing on any of our NORAD stuff. I guess that's another reason that we need a "STAR WARS" missle defense system (thanks, Ronald Reagan). It's amazing that we can track tornadoes, lightning strikes, size of hail, etc with Doppler Nine, but we can't find a nuclear missle in the last hour. :(

Mandy, I still have trouble remembering her from the past seasons (except the famous Palmer handshake) but she's quite interesting. I think she must be Nina's sister or cousin. She's just cold and heartless.

I'm glad to see Michelle and Tony get together, but that will doom Tony, I'm afraid. As I said earlier, the show will not allow couples to survive. If they would not have made up, he would be safe from being killed by Mandy, or even Jack. Jack has been known to sacrifice a few of his "friends". I like Jack, but I don't think he would make a good friend.

Palmer needs to have a cage match with the Speaker of the House. It would not last long, for sure.

Well, Next week promises to be another great episode, but I may be very angry by 10:00pm. I may need to go and drown my sorrows next Monday with a cold, delicious, ..... Sonic shake :)

This was a great episode, and I too thought abot Reagan's "STAR WARS" defense. Would it have worked on our soil, with the missile not coming from Russia? Surely CTU in all of their infinite computer-skills would be able to use it somehow.

The show amazes me, because of the palm pilots that the field agents have. They can go online, hack the best computers in the world, recieve sattelite images, read sim/memory cards, take pictures, send video feeds, make phone calls, but do they have a day-planner?

It's upsetting that Tony's probably going to die. After just a few hours ago he, magically popped in ans saved Jack's life in that exccellent and absurdly-timed scene. But that's why I love 24, they aren't afraid to do things that will change the show forever. Like kill Jack's wife or the leader of CTU, or everybody's second favorite agent, Tony.

I would like to express my sadness for finsrule though. Just because it's clear that he can't get into shows that take any imagination or use too much technology for him to grasp. Oh well, TV Land isn't a bad channel.
