Twenty Four (24) -- "Day 6: Midnight - 1:00 AM" -- 04/23/07
Wow, no one started a thread in advance this time?
That doesn't bode well for the show when no one cares to start the thread until after the ep airs...
It looks like we're back to the cliches and convenient BS again.
Jack sends a message to Bill telling him what is going down, but leaves the message conveniently just when Bill is getting fired.
Speaking of Bill getting fired, oh look... the cliched blackmail angle again.
Definitely a major step backwards this week.

Can anyone post a recap of the last 5 minutes? I saw
Any twists at the end?
Sadly, I've regulated 24 to commerical breaks during Heroes.

Really.
Really.

No need for spoilers, anyone reading this thread should have watched the episode first, since discussion of the ep is what this thread is for.

I still haven't forgiven this season for killing off Bashir...
And another disappointing thing about the Audrey plot, is that there goes the chance of Jack going after her in China next season. In other words, if 24 stays in LA next season, I really think I'm done. They seriously need something new and different.

WOW, that episode mad me angry. I really can't stand the childish stupidity that goes on at CTU. It's like a damn kindergarten class. Where the hell are the next 4 episodes going?? That episode was garbage and the rest of the season will most likely be as well.

Thought it was a meh episode.
-- First, a hostage standoff during a bank robbery, and now being held captive by the Chinese...all that trauma in one season is taking its toll on Kim Raver.
--
Bill & Nadia. Heck, I'd even get Chloe to take over as CTU director before ever letting some scientologist preside.
-- And Bill's wife wanting to resign again was just stupid. The Helen Mirren look-a-like needs to go.

OK episode. Noah getting it on with his hot assistant was great.
I don't understand what the heck Tom Lennox's ultimate goal is.
Audrey going crazy is fine but didn't she calmly answer Jack on the phone when he called earlier?
And of course, Bill will get his revenge.

Seriously, I do not see why people find her attractive...

I was so bored and disappointed with this ep that I'll just list off random thoughts instead of writing a coherent criticism of it (I'll leave that to other people here).
- So. Do you think they'll ever let us know if President Logan is actually dead or not? Kinda pissing me off that 2 phenomenal actors (Itzin & Smart) were relegated to mere cameos this season and we have no idea what will happen to either of their characters.
- I actually felt sad when Bill left. Granted, he's been gone & come back before but I think this is really it for him. Now I only have Chloe to care about at CTU
- I love Audrey & especially Kim Raver but was kind of hoping she would die just so SOMETHING interesting would happen this ep. And now she's crazy. Guess getting tortured by the Chinese would do that to anyone (except Jack), but is this really the melodrama we have to look forward to for the final 5 eps?
- Who else really wants to see Jack's dad come back before the end of the season? I like him only because James Cromwell is a great actor who so far has been wasted on this show.
- Memo to Jack: Please catch Cheng and put an END to this now-interminable Chinese subplot.
- I wonder what else they're gonna try to do to make Powers Boothe's character more unsavory. At this point he could launch a nuclear strike against a Middle Eastern preschool and I'd still like him a lot more than DB Woodside's President.

So is Wayne dead and off the show? I noticed on IMDB that he's in a pilot tv show called Viva Laughlin. I guess I don't know anything about it so maybe it's just a cameo. Didn't they "kill off" Audrey so she could go do The Nine and then brought her back after it was cancelled? I assume if The Nine had been successful Audrey would not have come back to 24.
I noticed that Kim Raver is also in another pilot tv show called Lipstick Jungle. Does this mean she's done with 24 AGAIN? Can an actor/actress actually be on 2 different shows at once?

I personally loved Jacks comment to Bill on voice mail that he has "been a great friend" If my numbers are correct haven't Jack and Bill known each other for exactly 2 days in their lives separated by 18 months?
