I guess it's time to start a thread for tonight's ep.

From TV Guide:

wow. 5 hours until it airs and we already have a thread. :rolleyes:

And a threadcrap. :crap:

Maybe it's a record?

What's wrong with starting the thread before the show is on? It'll build up the DVD Talk hype!

Looking forward to tonight's episode!

I've seen threads started a day or more before the episode is shown. *shrug* So what?

I'm really looking forward to this one! I wonder if Jack will threaten to torture Saunders' daughter? heh

Last week the thread didn't get started until after it had aired on the East Coast. I just figured we'd get the ball rolling before the show this week.

AAIK, there's no policy here that says you can't start a TV thread early. All that's required is spoiler tags until the show airs. That and no threadcraps. :)

Does Kim die this week? Huh? Does she? Please?

Nah. Kim is not going to die. She's too cute looking to die.

How much better would this series be if Kim would have been the one to die instead of her mom? There would be great tension between Jack and his wife, there would be no Kim :banana: , there would be potential for another amnesia, but that would beat the cougar trap.

This episode sucks so far

What happened to Kim's hair? It has been awful the whole season and I think it looks better now but it's so much shorter.

I take that back :eek:

Wow, they took that somewhere else didn't they?

I was actually punching my couch on that one.

Good episode. Michelle dodged one bullet and then come under another one. Wonder if Jack will forgive Tony for that.

:lol: The overly dramatic "something bad will happen to me after this good news" scene with Michelle ... not one, but two, obvious red herrings with Kim ... a train!?! :lol: This whole episode was setup to try and fake out the audience, but it was so heavy-handed that none of it worked. It was also really disappointing to see them take Tony's character this way just for some silly "shocking" ending. Tony's going to risk deadly national outbreak to save his wife? Sure. Why not. No sense protecting thousands of innocent civilians (and children) when you can temporarily save the eye of a trained agent who's willing and prepared to die. :up:

das

Who hear thinks that with the events of tonight...

Speculation on season 4 of 24

Hahahahahaha!

Now THAT was a predictable "twist."

Hopefully Saunders manipulated the test results, and Michelle is actually infected, and will spread the virus to all the idiots at CTU.

Saunders made Tony move the 5-man team. He was just lucky that the other 35 went along to the front of the building as well.

Wow good point. Tony's days at CTU should be over now. I hope that Adam guy isn't in charge next season :)

Nah, she'd be bleeding from the nose by now.

"Chloe, I hate your personality" rotfl

I may have mangled it but Best Line Of The Night. At least until I watch The Sheild. ;)

Yeah I think it was actually "Chloe, I'm really beginning to hate your personality", in which case I'll assume its her first day if they're just beginning to hate her. :lol:

Yeah the "Michelle will be put back in harm's way" twist was a bit obvious. And I can't help but notice how well Chase is coming along after his hand was shot from close range and later had gasoline poured into the wound. But now I'm just nitpicking.

Overall good episode, though I still get the feeling Jane will somehow try to help her father. And why the hell was Kim sent to escort Jane?

Thanks :):up:

I don't think she was sent to 'escort' Jane. Jack was sending Jane back to CTU with some employees (the guys driving I assume) because he thought she would be safe there. He wanted Kim to be safe as well, so that's why he told her to go back to CTU with Jane and the others.

At least that's my take.

Forced suspense.

Yeah, I was hoping Fox would throw in an angry Obi-Wan yelling at Tony - "Come to your senses! What do you think Michelle would do if she was in your position?!!"

As a 24 fan, it saddens me to have to agree with das today. I also think they played the "drama" bit too much here esp. with Adam/Tony and Kim/Jane dialogue.

That too.

Although the show won't go this direction, I'm sure Michelle would be thrilled to know that her life caused the deaths of countless others. There's no better gift for those you love than the intense burden of guilt. "Happy anniversary, dear. I hope you like it. I got you the death of thousands for your conscience."

Give yourself to the Dark Side. :p

das

For the girl who's got everything.

:lol:

I loved how the CTU officers in the front seat of the transport paid no attention to the motorcycle that pulled up right along side them:lol:

That whole part was the worst fake out ever, or at least since the guy in the library wearing the red shirt last week.

For a second I thought Chloe was going to be the mole, but I think she's just crazy. Her little quirks are some of my favorite parts of the show.

It's also the lamest prisoner transfer ever...there should be tons of cop cars around that vehicle...but I do think it's a "cop out"...I don't think the car is going to be attacked.

:thumbsup:

This show is getting old....I was almost hoping they would wrap up this show with this story and allow Kiefer to move onto other ventjures. I would like to see him back in movies on a regular basis. I know he has done some of recent times but I believe he can be a big money maker once he has finished 24. IMO

As long as the role requires him to yell alot.

I find it hard to believe that
