The Official 24/Jack Bauer Power Hour Thread

Gumby · 04-12-2006, 05:13 AM

Discuss all things 24 hear, yo. Spoilers aplenty, in case you don't know.

Day 5: 11:00 PM to 12:00 AM

Another supercool episode. We learn more about the plot behind the nerve gas, Jack robs a bank, gets in a gunfight, and exposes the freaking PRESIDENT as the villain of the whole day. Seriously, Gregory Itzin, who plays President Logan, has just been brilliant. Now that we know he's behind it all, his doofus mannerisms have become more sinister than annoying, yet still believable as he did not want any of this to happen, and the whole day has really been about him covering his own ass. So this begs the question...did Cummings really commit suicide? I've said before that Logan showed a conniving side to him when he non-verbally gave Cummings the ok to kill Jack last season.

Anyone else think this season is the best so far? They really have tied up almost all of the loose ends. It's also nice to see Secretary of Defense Heller back, and confronting Logan himself. Does this mean Heller gets a bullet in the head, or does he join Logan in covering up his huge mess? I mean, Heller is an "anything for his country" type of guy, even letting his own son be tortured in Day 4.

I also kinda hope Jack doesn't get Henderson's head on a pike just yet. He needs a new nemesis, and who better than the man who trained him?

So this is were the 24 thread went! I had this awful feeling Audrey was going to die in the last episode. Of course that did not happen. The last Seven hours of this are going to be Jack against the president. It will be interesting.

Gumby · 04-18-2006, 06:04 PM

Day 5: 12:00 AM to 1:00 AM

Damn you, President Logan! That guy is one slippery mofo. Although, Heller might as well have handed Logan the recording for all the good he did. Punching Jack? You die now.

Speaking of dying, looks like Aaron may have bought it. I hope not, but Secret Service Agents don't just leave their cellphones lying around.

With the way things are stacking up, could this be the first time Jack actually loses?

Best. Season. EVER.

**Bill5461** · 04-20-2006, 11:03 AM

I have this feeling that Logan's wife will end up killing him. Which, by the way things are going, would be a good thing.

herbertlens · 05-02-2006, 08:26 PM

Who else loves the irony of Jack Bauer hijacking an airplane to defeat the President of the United States ?

Best series of 24 ever.

**Bill5461** · 05-05-2006, 08:49 AM

If Jack gets out of this one..."plane possible getting blown out of the sky"...he should live through the season

herbertlens · 05-05-2006, 08:29 PM

Kiefer has signed up for another three seasons, so expect Jack Bauer to die in 2009.

Gumby · 05-06-2006, 03:34 AM

They like to blow up planes on 24, don't they? The previous president got blown out of the sky, too.

But, he didn't have Jack on Air Force One, did he?

Jack > Snakes

king a · 05-07-2006, 10:22 PM

So is the plane gonna land or is the pres gonna be a monster.

He's signed on to be with the show for the next three seasons. I did not read where that actually means "on camera". I know he's moving way high up in the chain...Exectutive producet etc. I know I would not want to watch if he's gone. Hopefully the rest of America thinks the same way.

bobrules · 05-09-2006, 11:56 PM

I'd stop watching if jack left the show. nobody else could do what he does. anyone else would just be lame. its cause I swear to god, kiefer sutherland isn't acting, hes just that intense.

JACK WILL SHOOT YOUR WIFE IN THE LEG TO GET AT YOu!

herbertlens · 05-10-2006, 02:46 AM

The show is Jack Bauer - i don't think they'd try and do it without him. I honestly think the show will end with Jack's death. He's such a tragic character.

Gumby · 05-10-2006, 05:14 AM

My perfect ending to 24:

Kim finally decides to reconcile with Jack at the conclusion of yet another intense day of fighting terrorism. When she arrives at the lakeside cabin he's retired to, she finds him slumped over, dead, from all his past injuries and health issues finally catching up to him. Silent clock. The end.

Oh yeah, and the last episode was freaking perfect. How good of an actor is Gregory Itzin (President Logan)? I really want Jack to gut that sniveling weasel Miles like a fish, too.

With 3 hours left, and LOTS of things to resolve, the next few weeks should be gut-wretching, ball-busting television at its finest.

herbertlens · 05-11-2006, 06:55 PM

it was awesome stuff.. Logan only seconds away from blowing his brains out and Jack get's betrayed again. Absolutely superb.

Bauer is nowhere near to the guys behind Logan... I think this conspiracy may take him more than a day to solve !

**Bill5461** · 05-14-2006, 11:28 AM

****Special Alert to People who tape the show***
The president (Bush) is holding an address Monday night at 8. Who knows when 24 might come on. Be alert!

Gumby · 05-14-2006, 04:14 PM

I think taking more than a day to solve would be interesting. Jack may take down a lot of the smaller bad guys (Bierko, Henderson), but I think Logan may survive the day still as President, and maybe the Bluetooth Group will still be around.

After all, what can you do after you've taken down the President of the United States? Maybe Jack gets sold out to China again?

**Bill5461** · 05-15-2006, 01:52 PM

I heard in an interview that the guy who plays Logan has been renewed for next season. What that means, I don't know. They did bring Nina back after she was taken into custody.

Gumby · 05-22-2006, 11:23 PM

Just watched the season finale and oh...my...God. Freaking perfect television right there.

January 2007 can't come fast enough.

I think you hit them all! Finally watched the show last night, after having to put it off for three days. Remember 24, never ends on a happy note! I'm just curious how far into the future the next show will pick up, how bad will jack have been tortured, and if ANY american charactors will be in next year's show? It may take place all in China with Jack trying to get away and get out of the country. You're right, it will be a very long eight months.
