    But wait, there are 8 more episodes? After the epic fail that just took place?

    Re: 24

    I've tried to watch 24 over the past two seasons, but I've lost interest in both seasons midway. Not that they were so bad that I purposely stopped watching, they just weren't the same gripping TV I once expected from 24.

    Okay, it has definitely jumped the shark with Michael Madsen supplying military grade assault rifles, body armor, and intel. Contrast that to Season 1 where Jack was fending off mercenary gunmen with the help of only Rick the errand boy.

    Remember the time Jon Garland's hometown got nuked? So freaking random.

    I watched all of the 24s recently. Bought them on DVD and went nuts. I have to say, this is the most intense show in television history. Absolutely loved all of it. Wish it still had more coming!

    When I read that Isiah Thomas had been calling the shots for the Knicks in the Carmelo trade and that he could get his job back with the Knicks, you know what it reminded me of?

    President Taylor giving in to disgraced former President Charles Logan's help to salvage the Middle East peace agreement.

    Don't know if anybody here has followed this season since understandably it's not the Bauer Hour anymore, among other things that made the series great, but if you're like me and get stuck watching crap that you'll have to finish, here's hoping the final two episodes are good.

    I haven't followed this but I should. I really, really enjoyed the old 24 with Kiefer so I was hoping this would be okay without him. Have you not really enjoyed it?

    Quite the opposite. I like Dr. Dre just fine as the lead, and the plot is enough to draw you in. I'm a fan of Kiefer as Jack Bauer as much as anybody, but it's not like I'll start watching Designated Survivor because Kiefer's in it. Just saying I can understand the people who say they've lost interest and that it's not the same gripping action in past seasons. I just seem to remember there would be something happening and then when the clock comes on for a commercial break, I would go, "No, not now!" Now, it's just whatever, the characters are just looking at each other.

    Just watched the first episode and I enjoyed it. Looking forward to see how this progresses.

    So, I thought this was fun to watch but I didn't absolutely fall in love with it. I thought it started off really strong but as the season winded down, the story kind of fell flat for me and I really didn't like the ending. Does anyone know if they're making more of these?

    Re: 24

    The ending with Carter making the decision to join CTU gives the impression that the show's producers are open to another season, but the order has to come from the network.
