Anyone catch the 2 day premier of this season of 24? Just wondering what anyone else thought of the first few episodes.

like many other things, the hype has killed that show. its made so everyone will like it now. unfortunately, we dont all like the same things, so not everyone LOVES that show. including me. >:

I watched it just because I want to promote scripted television, and by watched it I mean just left my TV on to it.

It was a move just out of spite of seeing reality tv shows plastered all over tv with substandard ratings still producing returns. I actually yelled at my brother for changing past american idol.

I think I found my calling in life.. >:

So they had two 2-hour episodes. Does that mean there's only 20 more episodes to go?

Does the series still follow the "This all takes places over the course of 24 hours although oddly enough nobody needs a piss break" formula? If not, this show has overstayed its welcome.

It was an interesting concept when they did one season, like a miniseries. But now we're in season fucking 5. As far as I'm concerned, that's like makin a sitcom out of a movie. 24 is My Big Fat Greek Family.
