Default Re: Post A Reason That 24 Sucks

To answer the original question:

While I liked the series of episodes I've seen (midway through season 4), all of the hardcore psycho fans of the show always say "ZOMG, you have to catch up and watch all 5 seasons to appreciate it!"

It makes me want to not watch it, and my instinct is to despise everyone who is obsessed with the show. So, in summary, 24 is an awesome show, but the people who are obsessed with it are incredibly annoying.

1. Jack never charges his cellphone
2. No one ever eats anything
3. Jack apparently has a steel bladder as well, although I suppose this could be justified by #2.

I still enjoy the show a good deal, its clearly not about the realism and I think most people who like the show accept this openly.

Every episode has the same arc.

The show still rules though.

I hate this show for 1 main reason...

I cant stop watching it and it is taking over my life..
I have now seen 4 seasons so i have a good view on the entire show.

The show does not get put together with the greatest care in the world and the writing can be awful at times. But for some reason i cant stop watching it. Its like the fast food of TV because its not great but you keep going back for more.

For the record my favorite shows over the past year or 2 have been Deadwood(#1) and Rome.. 24 is up there but not anywhere near those 2. HBO knows how to write good shows

i'm working my way through season 4. i really enjoyed the first 2 seasons, and then I saw during season 3 it was just losing steam. The 24 hour constraint and constant "HERE WE GO AGAIN, ANOTHER PROBLEM TO EXTENUATE THE STORYLINE to make it 24 hours" sometimes hurts the show. Now it's just a guilty pleasure or popcorn entertainment. They do have some interesting political themes. It'd be nice if they change it up and did a drama with Jack that follows a storyline like Sleeper Cell.

Season 4 is awesome.

Season 4 was great and had the benefit of coming off a lackluster Season 3. I know there are tons of Elisha Cuthbert fans in OOT but I couldn't take her on that show. Her character had nowhere left to go and the storyline involving Kim and her relationship with Chase pulled me out of the show.

I love 24 but,

1. The plot line get less believable each season, which isn't a huge deal to me.

[/ QUOTE ]

True. I like it for different reasons now. It has more unintentional humor now because of Jack's repetitive yelling and insubordination.

2. Kim Bauer, wtf bring her back for a full season, and let her look like her normal hot self instead of giving her a [censored] hairstyle and retarded ugly clothes.

God no, kill her off.

I never understood the fascination with her on 24.

Also, I agree 24 rules. I think the haters just don't get it.

If the plot were believable it'd be boring as [censored]. It is the most entertaining show ever created, if you disagree with this you are a terrorist and I'll be notifying Jack Bauer shortly so that he can shoot you in the leg while you divulge all your terrorist secrets.
