Kind of funny how the fans are all desperately searching for something positive about this season, so we're all latching onto Tom Lennox.
As for the President's "adrenaline rush," I'm not trying to defend that piece of sloppy writing. But to be fair, I think the implication is that his increased blood pressure caused some kind of brain damage. Hence, he is now launching nukes at "Fayed's country."

Anyone else think of Buster Bluth when Gredenko was wandering around the beach with a missing appendage? Maybe they should be on the lookout for a loose seal.

Haven't totally given up on the show but have relegated it to a small window while browsing, instead of maximized view that has my full attention.
One thing I really can't take anymore -- WTF is up Palmer's hushed, kinda whispery, tone of voice even when he's having a normal conversation? It's more pronounced when he gets angry and tries to "assert his authority"

Now that I have the room on my DVR, I'm going to stop watching this every Monday.
This is not appointment TV anymore. I'll queue up the remaining episodes and finish them off in May, with a generous amount of fast-forwarding I imagine.

No one has mentioned the dialogue between Nadia and Doyle over religion:
"You've read the Koran?"
"Yeah, and the Bible, and the Upanishads - you've found (your truth?), I'm still looking for mine"
That scene had me chuckling. They're really crafting a complex, dark yet noble character there.

Bill: Jack Bauer will be interrogating Fayid about the remaining two nukes."
Prez: But there's no way of knowing if that will be productive or how long it will take?
Bill: No, sir.
Or, Bill: Actually there is, sir. We've got this amazing new technology that will indeed let us predict precisely whether interrogation will be productive and, if so, how long it will take right down to the nanosecond. Would you like me to run in through the machine now?"

Yep, a lot of pointless lines. But they were in all the other seasons as well.
