I figured out what was missing in 24 this season. It’s Jack taking charge and working over the bad guys. But there was plenty of that in this episode, so I’m feeling better about things. First off, we have Jack looking the President straight in the eyes and saying, “You can trust me.” When she […]
Rogue agents in crawlspaces, toxic insecticides, chaos in the White House … ah, it’s good to have 24 back, even if we’ve seen it all before. It’s been, well, 24 hours since I saw this week’s episode, and I’ve been trying to figure out what was noteworthy about it. I keep coming back to how […]
(Season 7, Episode 6 – “1 p.m. – 2 p.m.”) Still loving this season, but still standing by my comment from a previous review that there are only so many things you can do with this show.

(Season 7, Episode 1 – “8:00 AM – 9:00 AM” and “9:00 AM – 10:00 AM” – Season Premiere) “What happened to you? What the hell happened to you?” Jack to Tony How nice to have Jack back. And he has a kick-ass female partner, to boot. But first, he’s being grilled by a grand jury for working over […]
