Holy crap that was bad. Gangbangers swooping in to fight off terrorists? Wow.

I was surprised to see Odeh Fehr on this. I thought he was already on the series, but I was mistaking that for Sleeper Cell.

at Carter just leaving Andy behind.

Almeida is just being wasted.

Honestly, even if Bauer were to come in to this season in some surprise fashion, there is no redeeming it.

I don't remember Jack Bauer ever running a medical screen on someone before interrogating them.

The bangers rolling in and lighting up the room was the most unintentionally hilarious thing this season.

Hell yea great episode.

I also thought it was f'd up that Carter left Andy behind. What the hell was that? Haha

I originally thought that the brother's "crew" raiding the warehouse was a laughable decision, but I liked that scene. It was a amateur street raid and lacked the precision of a CTU raid.

I hope we get to see more of Tony, because they haven't used his character that much yet. Was hoping to see him mentor Carter.

I like the new villain.

Ah yes, typical 24, introducing the secondary villain.

I do like Oded Fehr though.

Through 2 appearances, Bernard has been wasted. The enhanced interrogation ended up being a fucking waste of time.

And what a dick Carter was leaving Andy behind. even though he did survive.

Loved Isaac and his crew's attack on the territorists.

Just an excuse to kill time as Smits' character gets there. And add more drama when/if McRaney croaks.

This episode was eye-rollingly ridiculous, but fun. From the previews for next week:

Spoiler:
CTU HQ is attacked AGAIN? Isn't it the premier anti-terrorism organization in the country? Shouldn't its HQ be as secure as the Pentagon?

Now come on... didn't you see the one banger make it clear that it wasn't their fight? (and then quickly give in and join the tactical team!)

Almeida is just being wasted.
That can't be said enough. I really wonder if the actor was notified before hand just how lame his involvement would be. Because it's been flat out terrible.

Honestly, even if Bauer were to come in to this season in some surprise fashion, there is no redeeming it.
At this point I think all we can hope for is a scene at the end where they get a clue to Bauer's whereabouts and start work on a plan to get him back. Tony being a part of that is really the only thing that could pull me into another season of 24. I wouldn't go any where near another season like this one.

The only thing that can save this show is Jack.

Oh the irony.
