Wow. I haven’t been this juiced for 24 in a long, long time. I think I can officially come down and say that this Jack Bauer vengeance stampede has saved the final season from inanity. What began as a standard-issue, plot-recycled slab of 24 mediocrity is ending in one of the all [...]

Wow. Now that’s an interrogation scene. For eight seasons, Jack Bauer has given the audience loads and loads of tips on how to properly get a captured antagonist to cough up valuable intel, whether it’s using as frayed house lamp cord or simply punching the guy in the chest repeatedly.

Things aren’t looking great for Team CTU, partially because their deep-cover operative may be out of her gourd, but mainly because there are still 17 hours to go in the day.
