Anybody else addicted to this show??

I watched 5 seasons this summer on DVD to get caught up for this season.

The first part of the 4 hour premier was last night, and it was insane! I'm counting down the hours till tonight biggrin.gif
BenIndy
Unfortunately I'm also addicted.
nicole green
i used to be addicted but i haven't seen it in a really long time. i was too busy. mad.gif
amandak
I am too! In the mornings on A&E from 8 to 9am on the east coast they run re-runs. In the event you need a daily fix!

My husband watched for the first time lastnight and is now hooked. It only took the first hour for him to join the addiction.

we have been waiting all year!!!
when its on, all i do is wait for monday!!!
JEast
Same here... it's like video crack!
erin@lacour
Mark and I are addicts as well. We just finished watching Season 5 on DVD two weeks ago. It's crazy how a TV show can hook you like that. Superb writing. We have the same problem with Lost.
Fletcher
So addicted! Even skipped a consulation for the premier last night! (okay...just kidding...but the addiction part is true) lol
cameron
I watched it last night, pretty good stuff. I have to admit though.. the writing of the dialogue and the acting in that show are pretty bad. So cliche. But.. nonetheless.. I'm still addicted.
theGreatDivorce
How brutal was last night? Jack's scars and his takedown of that dude after he "flatlined" ...

Erin, Lost is the other show I really like ... but I've gotten frustrated with it because they never reveal anything, just one tease after another new question!

I kinda agree with you about the dialogue at times, Cameron. It's mostly good, and the acting varies. But hey, still addicting, like you said smile.gif
Fletcher
The scene that made me jump was when the guy that Jack saved rammed a knife up the informants knee. I mean I've seen knees get shot...kicked...what have you...but a knife right up under the kneecap?! Ouch!

My All time favorite TV show... Can't wait for tonight episode ... !!!
colinmichael
I like 24 but Hero's will be watched on Mondays. I will Tivo 24 and watch it all later.
I sure hope that real CTU agents aren't like 24! Everyone at CTU (especially their "SWAT" guys) are bumbling idiots. 5 untrained terrorists with 9mm's can take out 30 CTU agents with MP5's. And what is up with nobody but Jack ever making a good call? And how manytimes must Jack be right when everyone else is wrong before they will take his word for someting! Still, it's a fun show.
roro
Addicted 4 life. Today's episode was amazing!
Becky Waurio
Tonight's show rocked . . . that is all I am going to say!

(we are addicted)

My wife and I watchd it for the first time last night and were already hooked. We just finished up tonights episode. Ever since we got our DVR it has made watching TV SO much easier. Lost is another show were hooked on along with Jericho.
theGreatDivorce
Kevin/Fletcher (which one biggrin.gif ) I'm with ya man, the knife-under-kneecap made me squirm!

Colin, Heroes is one of my fav's, too. I'm excited for it to come back. And yeah, every time people don't listen to Jack - something goes wrong. You'd think they'd learn ...

I have DVR too and I totally end up watching too much tv since I just record everything. Lost, Heroes, 24, Man vs. Wild, CSI, football, etc etc...
BLA BLA BLA
OH man tonight was crazy

I prefer to think of it as a "habit" rather than an "addiction" ...
a habit with a very tight grip on me that I can't seem to shake (not that I'm trying)!

I like that thinking! I've had some friends say everyone is allowed one vice. So...with the start of 24...does that mean I have to give up OSP?! laughing.gif

Which name? Your guess is as good as mine! laughing.gif Really though, Fletcher is my middle name and friends have called me that since college (professors called me that too and it got to the point that Kevin didn't even register in my brain).
Jeff
Totally, TOTALLY hooked (and I can quit any time I want smile.gif ).

I SO did not see it coming when Curtis took one in the neck. And the nuke actually going off? Why oh why do the bad guys insist on pissing off Jack?

OK, people....let's have it-- your all-time favorite "24" moment. Nina getting killed? Jack flying the plane out to the desert and bailing out? Chloe with the machine gun? Chapelle getting wasted for the greater good? Sherry Palmer finally getting tossed aside? Personally, mine was when Jack & Audrey were pinned down and a disgraced, down-on-his-luck Tony came blazing in to save the day.

I posted this in another thread recently. In case you missed it...

You can lead a horse to water. Jack Bauer can make him drink.

If Jack Bauer was in a room with Hitler, Stalin, and Nina Meyers, and he had a gun with 2 bullets, he'd shoot Nina twice.

If you wake up in the morning, it's because Jack Bauer spared your life.

Upon hearing that he was played by Kiefer Sutherland, Jack Bauer killed Sutherland. Jack Bauer gets played by no man.

Jack Bauer once forgot where he put his keys. He then spent the next half-hour torturing himself until he gave up the location of the keys.

1.6 billion Chinese are angry with Jack Bauer. Sounds like a fair fight.

Jack Bauer killed 93 people in just 4 days time. Wait, that is a real fact.

Jack Bauer was never addicted to heroin. Heroin was addicted to Jack Bauer.

Osama bin Laden's recent proposal for truce is a direct result of him finding out that Jack Bauer is, in fact, still alive.

Jack Bauer doesn't miss. If he didn't hit you it's because he was shooting at a terrorist twelve miles away.

If Jack and MacGyver were locked in a room together, Jack would make a bomb out of MacGyver and get out.

Superman wears Jack Bauer pajamas.

Jack Bauer's favorite color is severe terror alert red. His second favorite color is violet, but just because it sounds like violent.

When Google can't find something, it asks Jack Bauer for help.

The reason why terrorists attacked New York City was because Jack Bauer was in LA.

Jack Bauer got Hellen Keller to talk.

Jack Bauer played Russian Roulette with a fully loaded gun and won.

Lets get one thing straight, the only reason you are conscious right now is because Jack Bauer does not feel like carrying you.

People with amnesia still remember Jack Bauer.

When the boogie man goes to sleep, he checks his closet for Jack Bauer.

When you open a can of whoop-ass, Jack Bauer jumps out.

When life gave Jack Bauer lemons, he used them to kill terrorists.

Jack Bauer ****ing hates lemonade.

Killing Jack Bauer doesn't make him dead. It just makes him angry.

Jack Bauer once won a game of Connect 4 in 3 moves.

Jack Bauer can get McDonald's breakfast after 10:30.

I still haven't watched tonights episode, gotta wait for the gf to get home from work! She'd go Bauer on me if I watched it without her.

Don't read this if you didn't watch tonight's episode....


OK, how the heck did Fayed (sp?) escape the blast? He says to set it off, less than a minute goes by, bomb goes off and he is still alive? If it was that small of a bomb then how was it supposed to kill hundreds of thousands?
Things like that annoy me!

ahhhhhh, I didn't know it had started!!!!!! i missed it!!!! I did this last season too sad.gif Ok, I need to rent last season, catch up before next week, and try and figure out what's going on. awwww man, I can't believe I did this again! I LOVE 24!!!
Floyd
Luuuuuuurv 24, but I've gotten used to the formula. I now have a new motto:

The show would be called "1" were it not for all the stupid people in this show.

As far as I remember, Wayne Palmer was single at the end of last season. Does the country have its first bachelor president?

--J.
m. chau
I've never watched a full episode before this season. I've been reeled in by a few friends. It's pretty exciting.

Good point about the cell phone batteries. Do they every eat or use the bathroom?
amandak
Just as an FYI... season one is on sale at Target! Just in case anyone needs to fill up their collection.
JasonAng
you all stink..I almost started reading this but saw some details that give it away...I had a wedding on Sunday so I had my mom tape both days and is mailing them to me....I should have it by friday! We dont have cable so tvio is not an option....and the VCR....well we have never used it so I cold not get it to work right...

anyway I started half way through season 5...then rented the first 4...how it is good..I still want to rent the first half of season 5 to see how that started...


oh and why cant fox have them online after it airs like heros and lost...that is how I usually see those...
Jeff
How about starting a "24" drinking game??

One drink whenever Jack yells, "Damnit, we are running out of time!!"

Ideas?

James Buchanan was a bachelor president.
jason messer
the whole season takes place over the span of one day.

my cell phone and pda both last a few days on a single charge.

as for the bathroom.......during commercials?
Nichanh
My husband and I both love that show. I saw the one on Monday and I think they should always have 2 hrs showings all the time.
Matt Sloan
Serious Craziness!!!
JenStewartPhotography
ok, is there ANY way for me to get caught up on this seasons episodes? I'm dying here, and don't want to have to wait till the full season comes out like i had to do with season 5! sad.gif
JennyMc
Hahaha, oh man.

My fiance and I are now on the second season...We had to wait three TORTUROUS days for the first two discs of the second season to be back in stock because somebody rented them, so when they came back YESTERDAY, we rented all six discs and they're due back Monday. We've got a lot of watching to do! We're half way through episode 2 of the second disc this very moment!! biggrin.gif

(CTU was just blown up.)

The show is freakin' AMAZING. It's like an incredible movie that never ends. I love it!
theGreatDivorce
Jen, maybe see if you can download anything from bit torrent? I can't vouch for the safety or legality of that, but it's just a though smile.gif

edit: What the deuce are these attachments?! It's freaky having someone I've never met/seen/shot attached to my post biggrin.gif
