The reason we all love 24 is because,if we're honest,we think we could do his job.
All the situations make you wonder,what would I do?
The Shield is a great show,but at least on 24 you know Jack Bauer and CTU on the whole (but not everyone in it), are good guys. It's good vs. evil. And I like that nobody is guaranteed to live to the end of the show.
My only peeve is that apparently any loser in L.A. can walk into CTU and chat with Bill Buchanan.

I was trying to decide who was the tougher "interviewer", Jack Bauer or Jack Bristow ?

Yes... it is the only show since "All in the Family" back in the day that has made my entire family drop everything for that one hour... and the reason AITF stopped everybody was because Archie WAS my Uncle Dick in every possible way...

I really enjoyed it until the 2nd? Season when "jack" did the anti-gun promo after the credits & gave out the website. No problems or promo for the drinking, smoking, adultery or heroin addiction. I haven't watched since.

Not necessarily. Jack has died in 24, but he always comes back. You know what they say:
Jesus died and rose from the dead in 3 days. It took Jack Bauer less than an hour. And he's done it twice.
He died for his country, and lived to tell about it.

Just about every primetime network TV show has some brainwashing twist regularly injected into the presentation. What is it with "24"; "torture is necessary, acceptable and good" or something like that?

24 gets very contrived, but given the premise, I cut it a lot of slack. When it sucks, I just wade thru it. When it's good, man, it's kick-butt television. I'm definitely hooked.

I think "Chloe" looks very spankable when she has the angry look.
Other then that rolling by what CT said if that is indeed true it's sh|tlist time for 24.

I love the show. Jack Bauer is one of the coolest characters on television and I love the constant conflict between committing an act that comprises Jack's humanity and saving the world.
Next Season: Jack finds out that the entire United States is going to be destroyed by Nuclear War unless Jack slaughters a daycare full of 6 year olds.
Ok, so it's not happening, but you get the drift.
The only moment of the show I've disliked so far? Jack switching from a Sig (seasons 1 and 2) to a USP. A USP probably is more Jack's style though, and his Sig always looked bulky in what seems like Keifer's small hands.

I've tried to watch the 24, but I just don't find it very interesting ...
I always get a kick out of the guys sitting around the cigar lounge, looking at their watches and talking about how they have to watch 24, The Apprentice or American Idol ... none of which seem to be the least bit interesting to me. Fortunately, if any of the shows are on while the lounge is open, and are on the lounge TV, at least I have cigars to smoke and occupy my time while everyone else is raptly glued to the screen, and I can enjoy their quiet company.

I like it too. One question about the last episode. How did the terrorists get the nerve gas into CTU? The guy with the fake card did not have a big enough suitcase. The terrorist leader mentioned something but I didn't get it.
I knew Jack was going to shoot the guys wife. Clearly the guy himself didn't care if he got shot so Jack had to "raise the bar". At least she knows what a schmuck her husband is.
As soon as Edgar went to look for that other gal, I knew he was a gone goose.

For those of you with a 24 addiction problem ther is help at blogs4bauer.blogspot.com
Just ask yourself... What Would Jack Bauer Do?

Bauer would kick Mackey's ass then take his shield. Mackey needs 3 other men as backup to catch a single dug dealer when Bauer goes it alone against entire terrorist orginizations.

Anyone who likes 24 should google Blogs4Bauer (I don't have anything to do with it, either). It is a hoot.
Where my fiancee and I laugh is when Jack:
Starts out of a helocopter for a tactical entry with a pistol. (last season)
Drops a guy dead at about 150 yards with one round from a pistol. (last season)
Interrogates Robocop and shoots Robocop's wife (Monday).
The show is addictive, and is a real hoot.
After the first season I came up with the solution for all the problems....
Kill Bauer, he is bad luck...

That was classic! 24 may get as close to non-PC as we can hope from pitiful Hollywood. I'm REAL glad my wife wasn't in the room to see my reaction to that scene!
...yea but JB needs to contact CTU for things like sattelite imagery, frequencies to blow up suicide vests, etc.
So to keep it gun-related, does JB shoot
A. a .45 because it's a man's round
B. a 9mm because every round he fires hits between the eyes and a 9mm gives him more capacity
-or-
C. whatever rounds he picked up off the last bad guy he killed
