My 24 Update

Last night, I went to bed early (9:15) and then I remembered 24 was on so I got back up and went in the living room to watch. First, the fact that I forgot it was on is a pretty good indication of how I feel about this season of 24. Here are the top ten reasons why I am annoyed with Season 6 of 24:

(1) Jack's screen time is very limited. He is appearing in only about 10% of the hour.
(2) It almost seems like the real time aspect is gone. Last night, 10 minutes after Palmer comes out of the coma he is in situation room.
(3) Inconsistencies abound. Yesterday they had the Supreme Court in session (they called it the afternoon) but it was really 2:00AM Eastern Time.
(4) Very little Chloe time. I think she was on for about 2 minutes last night.
(5) Where the heck is Audrey (and no, she isn't dead).
(6) Repeat story lines: Another arm cut off, more bombs to find, oh and lets overthrow the President, AGAIN!
(7) We are two thirds through the season and almost nothing has happened.
(8) 70% of the show is revolving around the White House rather than the field.
(9) I am not bonding with the new characters as at all. Literally, I have no interest in them.
(10) Failure to close loops. Is Logan still alive? Why bring up Audrey just to forget about her?

You have finally come to the resolution that 24 is NOT as good as you have been trying to convince everyone. Now, lets move forward and discuss the upcoming Season Premiere of The Soprano's..

I can't wait for the premiere of "The Soprano's". I already have all 6 seasons on DVD. It is clearly the best show that HBO has in it's great line up! "Oh, now you wanna argue wit me and my mudder?...BANG!"

Dawn - yeah, the ONLY good thing about the DH recap show was that it has been so long since it was last on, I'd forgotten some of the stuff!
