“Jack, if I had only listened to you, none of this would have happened.” So says President Taylor last night at the culmination of Season 8 and the series of 24 as a whole. More fitting words I cannot conjure. For years, Jack Bauer has been the man who broke rules and pushed [...]

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.

As the clock on this final season winds down, we oft-suffering 24 fans have been treated to a fairly big surprise: a plot element that isn’t completely lifted from season prior.

This past Friday, Starz wrapped up the first season of its hyper-stylized, MA-rated (to the extreme) gladiatorial saga–Spartacus: Blood and Sand. When I first saw the promos for this, I was intrigued, less about the historical retelling of the Spartacus (and his eventual running point on a massive slave rebellion) and more because it looked a [...]

Jack Bauer is not a happy guy. Following the ground-shaking events of the last few hours—and the shocking use of multiple silent countdown clocks—Bauer is obviously ready to crack some skulls in the six remaining hours he has on network television.

You know, up to this point I’ve been pretty okay with the ridiculousness of this season of 24. Day 8 is not one Jack Bauer’s best, for sure, and every episode seems to usher in new levels of inanity, usually associated with Dana Walsh. But it was this show that really pissed me off. [...]

The overarching theme of the second season, and perhaps the series as a whole, comes to the fore in episode 10, “Over.” It is in this episode that Walter White (Bryan Cranston, Malcolm In The Middle) discovers “rot” in the base of the his house. Walt tells his son (RJ Mitte) that to save the [...]

CTU is in shambles, its motherboards and circuitry and Johnson rods fried from a successful EMP attack. As our favorite bumbling bereaucrats scramble to get back online and once again contribute nothing to the mission of tracking down the nuke rods, Jack Bauer, Cole Ortiz, Owen and some loser CTU stiff who’s certainly going [...]
