JACKS BACK!It's Jack Bauer. There's no way this will be a complete disaster. At the very least it's still Jack Bauer and Jack Bauer rules all.
First one is not from Jack.Over/Under number of DAMNIT!!!s tonight?
The president, Allison Taylor, was intent on getting a treaty signed between a fictional Iran stand-in ("Kamistan"), the U.S., and Russia, but the Russians secretly weren't interested and had the reformist president of Kamistan killed while he was under Jack's protection. The Russians also killed Renee Walker, Jack's awesome and hot redhead love interest and former FBI agent. Jack then set out on a one-man vengeance fest, killing several Russians including their foreign minister, and almost killing the Russian president before stopping himself. Meanwhile, President Taylor learned of the Russian involvement in the assassinations from Jack, Chloe and others, but covered it up to get Kamistan to sign the treaty. At the last minute, Taylor reneged, turned herself into the Attorney General, and called off the U.S. hit squads that had Jack cornered, enabling him to get away, a man without a country, wanted by both the Russians and the Americans.Been so long can't remember how the last season ended and no lead in.....brief reminder anyo5?

I would watch and be mildly excited for new episodes anyway, but Jack Bauer and Sarah ####### Walker on the same TV show? Wouldn't miss it for the world.
Yes, assuming butcher boy was posting in the wrong thread.Yes it was.Was that Catelyn Stark?
He was referring to the buyer of the clone control tech who i also thought was Cat Stark.Yes, assuming butcher boy was posting in the wrong thread.If he meant to post in this one, then no. It was Hannah McKay.Yes it was.Was that Catelyn Stark?
Was Jack Bauer in the show, too? I didn't notice him.I would watch and be mildly excited for new episodes anyway, but Jack Bauer and Sarah ####### Walker on the same TV show? Wouldn't miss it for the world.
No, this is totally different because it's the Chief of Staff, not the VP.That all seemed very familiar:
President with a vulnerability.
VP trying to do him in.
Someone getting clued in to VP's plotting (Audrey)
Someone being unfairly booted from crime fighting unit (used to be CTU, now CIA)
People in crime fighting unit have conflicting motives.
Chloe
Chloe goes against what her work group wants to help Jack, and can access every computer and camera everywhere.
Jack beats the #### out of everyone but stops short of killing most of them.
Still very worth watching, due to pace, lurking evil, and attractive women.
At the end of these 12 episodes Jack will be even more alone, more wanted by more people wanting to kill him.
And the Chief of Staff wasn't trying to do him in... he's trying to make sure the Prez hides his alhezimers or whatever.No, this is totally different because it's the Chief of Staff, not the VP.That all seemed very familiar:

This confused me at first too. I thought it was the same character for a few minutes.Or, she could be the long lost 3rd Warner sister (Season 2). Strahovski and Sarah Wynter could be doppelgangers.

Loved it.
She ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-make me me me me happy.
Wait'll you hear her talk in her native Aussie accent. She could get me to do things. Bad things.She ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-make me me me me happy.
I'm still surprised so many people don't like Audrey. She's awesome. Sure, she gets nervous and jittery around torture and violence because she's one of the few people on the show that isn't a trained killer.First hour was better than second (slow at times) but I love that Jack is back on TV if for only a short season.
Never cared for Audrey and I hope there aren't any sappy moments with her and Jack. Love the kill in the restroom by the girlfriend on the hacker.
Too predictable with the Chief of Staff having personal reasons to keep Jack from Audrey, but it gets a pass. Good start to the series.
I wonder what ties the Drone pilot Lt. has with the rest of the plot, or was he just a temporary character to blame the dry run bombing on, and really a non-player to the plot.
Audrey ranks way below Warner and Renee on the Jack love interest scale IMO.I'm still surprised so many people don't like Audrey. She's awesome.

I assume it's for much of the same reason folks don't like women on other action-fueled shows. They just get in the way of all the ###-kicking.
Anyway, I know happy, in-love Jack is not an option, but I always held out hope he'd get some sliver of happiness, and with Audrey (S6 finale was a terrible stomach punch).
While not the primary reason for the downfall after S5 (of which there were many), losing Audrey certainly played a part, even if nobody will admit it.
I'm sorry, where was Warner while Audrey was getting tortured by the Chinese trying to save Jack?Audrey ranks way below Warner and Renee on the Jack love interest scale IMO.I'm still surprised so many people don't like Audrey.

He's keeping things secret from the president. He doesn't want the president to be open with the UK. He has his own agenda, which is different than the president's. Pretty easy to see the setup.(HULK) said:And the Chief of Staff wasn't trying to do him in... he's trying to make sure the Prez hides his alhezimers or whatever.Rayderr said:No, this is totally different because it's the Chief of Staff, not the VP.fatness said:That all seemed very familiar:

You do realize which show we're talking about right? It's 2nd most popular character, by a few thousand country miles, is known simply by an angry face emoticon.thecatch said:I'm not sure Audrey has ever changed facial expressions on this show.
Yeah but Chloe has personality. We're not talking about whether Audrey ruins the show here, just how she ranks behind badass Renee and Warner, who Kiefer had great chemistry with.You do realize which show we're talking about right? It's 2nd most popular character, by a few thousand country miles, is known simply by an angry face emoticon.Let's just say it's a show not known for reaching down deep into each actor's emotional tool box.thecatch said:I'm not sure Audrey has ever changed facial expressions on this show.
