25. Jack Bauer yells, "Who are you working for?!?" (1 Drink)
26. A character has the same conversation he had less than 30 minutes ago in "24 Time." (1 Drink) It's the same episode. (2 Drinks)

Groucho

#17 hasn't been used too much this season.

kenbuzz

Hey Groucho, what happened to your name?

Groucho

My original name was repossessed by the IRS.

Boot

How many drinks is that?

Jeremy517

5/17 is my anniversary. Nice choice

I'm jealous. I've been wanting Jeremy517 for a while, but alas I have too many posts to change.

Charlie Goose

Gee, your liver smells terrific!

Decker

This game shouldn't stop at the end of the episode, there's still a little more drinking to be done:

31. President tries to sell you insurance (1 drink) or Jack tries to sell you a truck (2 drinks slowly, it'll be a while).
32. An unexpected, unwanted Fox promo ruins a major plot point twist in the next episode (1 drink)


Y'know someone should really keep score tomorrow night. I'm pretty curious now.

Michael Corvin

You're just gonna have to trust me!

DRG

kenbuzz should start compiling all these for tomorrow...

My additions

* A Ford vehicle is prominently displayed (1 drink)
* Control of CTU changes hands (1 drink)
* Someone at CTU waits for a fellow CTU member to leave their work station so they can get on their computer or some other sneaky thing without their knowledge (1 drink)
* Someone on the CTU main floor does something sneaky while keeping an eye on the CTU "God office" upstairs (1 drink)

DGibFen

*An ex-lover/girlfriend/wife appears during an episode and causes trouble to their ex-lover/boyfriend/husband (and vice-versa) - 2 drinks
*Tony and Michelle have any kind of husband/wife moment, including looks, touches, kissing, hugging, or any other type of PDA - 2 drinks
* If it happens more than once in the same episode - 1 drink per PDA offense.
* Any major female character shows any type of "forbidden fruit" (for example, Kim's nip-nips last season) - 1 drink per "fruit"

ZakVTA

this is too much.

MrN

Just like the other two seasons. Hmm, maybe they think the audience enjoys Kim's stupidity.

kenbuzz

I've gone ahead and appended everyone's suggestions. They're all pretty good.

Rypro 525

the same conversation thing happens at least 2 or 3 times per episode. like last week, when that guy killed himself in front of anne, she told the same story about 3 or 4 times in about a half an hour.

Damfino

This is Chase's job now.

Charlie Goose

If a character crashes a car intentionally, 1 drink.

djbrown

Each time Jack Bauer is referred to by his full name (1 drink).

It's gotta be 5-6 times an episode. Isn't Jack or Bauer enough?

Bandoman

Any public service announcement after the show (a la the recent gun safety PSA): chug entire beer/drink

JonTurner

best thread in a long time! (and I love the show)

DGibFen

One more:

If a recognizable B-Movie star appears on screen - 1 Drink
If a former A-list movie star that's been regulated to B-List status appears on screen - 3 Drinks of sorrow
Someone recognizable from any TV show - 1 Drink
- If that person is involved with any Joss Whedon show - 2 Drinks.

Rypro 525

if a plot is stolen/very similar to another tv show 2 drinks. (the early season 3 drug plot was very similar to a drug plot in early season 2 of alias.
