ritchboy:I disagree. . .this is the 2nd worst season after season 1. Luckily for me, I started watching 24 with Season 3 and then I went back to watch season 1 and 2 before watching 4, 5, 6, 7 and now 8. If I had started with season 1, I doubt I would have continued with the other seasons. |

It looks like Jack Bauer is out of time. In what can’t be considered surprising news–but still a bummer for fans nonetheless–the clock will stop on ‘24,’ according to Variety. After speculation in recent months, the Fox network and 20th Century Fox TV are expected to end the action-packed drama after this eighth season of the show. The series’ expensive price tag and unimpressive ratings are cited as the main reason. Can TV’s greatest American hero be saved? The trade claims the studio is toying with the idea of shopping the show around to other networks, but for the same reasons above, they’re not expecting many to be gunning for it. Within minutes of the news, a ‘#SaveJackBauer’ campaign was initiated on Twitter. But Kiefer Sutherland’s days of jacking up the bad guys aren’t over, since there are plans to have the franchise live on in movie theaters. The network declined to comment. A final decision is expected in the next 24 hours or so. http://www.fancast.com/blogs/2010/tv-news/report-fox-to-end-24-after-this-season/ |

If I had started with season 1, I doubt I would have continued with the other seasons. are u kiddin me? a show can only be judged in relation to the time it was aired. when season 1 first started airing, the concept was still fresh, and it was nothing short of brilliant. there is no doubt about it, this is BY FAR the worst season ever. |

kosovo:Stale gist. . .if you had followed this thread from the 1st page, you'll know this is OLD NEWS. |

ritchboy:We are not judging 24 against other series or in relation to the time it was aired and whether the concept was unique back then or not. We are judging the different seasons against each other based on how interesting they were. Anyway, in YOUR OPINION, this is the worst season. In MY OPINION, Season 1 is the worst. . . .EOD! |
Re: 24 Season 8 Begins 17th Jan by ritchboy(m): 7:50pm On Mar 12, 2010 |
We are not judging 24 against other series or in relation to the time it was aired ! of course it has to be judged in relation to the time it was aired! its like telling me Casino Royale is better than Gold Finger. . . or wealthy men from back in the day(when a bottle of Coke was 1/2kobo) were wretched. and whether the concept was unique back then or not. the fact that the concept was still fresh back then is one of the things that made Season 1 great. will you find the same joke as amusing the 8th time you hear it compared the first? We are judging the different seasons against each other based on how interesting they were. Anyway, in YOUR OPINION, this is the worst season. In MY OPINION, Season 1 is the worst. . . .EOD even if we go by your logic, Season 1 is still more "interesting" than Season 8 in MOST PEOPLE'S OPINION! the fact you started watching from season 3 makes your opinion of season 1 much less relevant!! |
Re: 24 Season 8 Begins 17th Jan by semid4lyfe(m): 9:27pm On Mar 12, 2010 |
ritchboy:And since when did YOUR OPINION become MOST PEOPLE'S OPINION? ritchboy:See this one o. . .FYI, I started watching 24 in 2007 and I bought the Complete Season 1-4 Dvd's all at the same time. . .I started with Season one & after watching it for about an hour, I quickly got bored with the Jack & his wife getting back together, daughter sneaking out of the house & being kidnapped thingy and the overall slow pace and generally dull storyline of the whole Season 1, so I removed it, slotted in the Season 3 randomly and got hooked in the 1st hr. . .So tell me how is my opinion not relevant? Season 1 didn't even become really interesting until it was well past half-way abi wetin u dey talk sef? SEASON 8 with it's 11 episodes so far is more interesting & $h!ts on the whole of Season 1. |
Re: 24 Season 8 Begins 17th Jan by ritchboy(m): 10:10pm On Mar 12, 2010 |
And since when did YOUR OPINION become MOST PEOPLE'S OPINION? its not just my opinion, 90% of tv buffs the world over are in agreement Season 8 is the worst and should be the last. See this one o. . .FYI, I started watching 24 in 2007 and I bought the Complete Season 1-4 Dvd's all at the same time. . .I started with Season one & after watching it for about an hour, I quickly got bored with the Jack & his wife getting back together, daughter sneaking out of the house & being kidnapped thingy and the overall slow pace and generally dull storyline of the whole Season 1, so I removed it, slotted in the Season 3 randomly and got hooked in the 1st hr ironically, Season 3 is widely regarded as the 2nd worst season ever. you seem to have great taste for rubbish! So tell me how is my opinion not relevant? its LESS relevant because the impression Season 1 would have given you was destroyed when you decided to watch the 3rd season first. and you watched it at least 3 or 4 years late! Season 1 didn't even become really interesting until it was well past half-way abi wetin u dey talk sef? IN YOUR OPINION!!! |

ritchboy:There he goes again throwing nos in my face and expecting me to swallow HIS OPINION hook, line, sinker, fisherman and boat. Please provide sources/links for this your RIDICULOUS assertion or kindly stick IMO after your post. One more thing. . . Did u take a sample of these so called MOVIE BUFFS who opined that season 8 is the worst to arrive at this 90% no? 90% ko, 9% ni. Btw. . .I also think that Season 8 should be the last but not becos it's the worst but becos the threats/attacks have been played out and the plots are becoming kinda repetitive & predictable. ritchboy:Obviously, your taste in movies is distorted and upside down. . .I won't be surprised if you tell me season 4 of Prisonbreak was the best and more interesting than Season 1. Shioor! ritchboy:What impression & relevance are you talking about? Can't I watch the seasons in any order and opine on which was the most interesting? Use your brain & stop yarning nonsense ritchboy:Is that an issue now or is it in anyway relevant to this discussion? See typical small boy sense ôn display here (I watched it before u). . .AND SO WHAT?. . .Has it made your bank account fatter? I give up òn you!!! |
Re: 24 Season 8 Begins 17th Jan by ritchboy(m): 12:31pm On Mar 13, 2010 |
Semid oh, so you want me to provide links to all reviews/opinions about season 8 on the internet so you can calculate the percentage that say its the worst? Were you born an idi0t? The figure(90%) was obviously an estimate from what i've heard/read, if you felt otherwise then you have the intellectual capacity of a severed pappus. If you feel season 3 is one of the better ones, its obvious you are the one with distorted taste. You must be a 5 star mor0n for thinking i was bragging about watching it before you. If you dont understand English dont speak in public. "small boy sense". . . hahaha, this chap is a lost cause. |

Re: 24 Season 8 Begins 17th Jan by honsule(m): 1:00am On Mar 18, 2010 |
Episode 12 is interesting.CTU is hit.It is an EMP bomb.Dana will have a break for the meantime From Mr. Prady.lol |
Re: 24 Season 8 Begins 17th Jan by netotse(m): 1:04am On Mar 18, 2010 |
just watched episode 12(semid thanks for the link), things are happening o. . .i'm wondering about that parole officer guy sef. . .he's dodgy! |
Re: 24 Season 8 Begins 17th Jan by semid4lyfe(m): 6:50am On Mar 18, 2010 |
netotse:True!. . .that parole officer is very dodgy & smart. |
Re: 24 Season 8 Begins 17th Jan by Wilfem(m): 7:04am On Mar 18, 2010 |
I don't know why people had already started condemning this season 8 before. Now that the story has changed, lets all wait and see how CTU & co will cope with this mess after being hit with an EMP. No wonder why Jack said 'we were blind' I pity President Hassan. |
Re: 24 Season 8 Begins 17th Jan by teeluv(m): 11:24am On Mar 18, 2010 |
for dana walsh. i guess a blow to CTU is a blessing in disguise. i no trust that parole officer guy. |
Re: 24 Season 8 Begins 17th Jan by Sauron1: 12:56pm On Mar 18, 2010 |
teeluv: They got too complacent!!! It was too easy for the terrorists to get the bomb into CTU. . . . .Nice plan but it coulda been spotted. Then why did the SWAT team move on to the Hotel so carelessly even when Jack was trying to stop them to be more careful? |
Re: 24 Season 8 Begins 17th Jan by teeluv(m): 3:00pm On Mar 18, 2010 |
the guy was trying to show skill.most police officers don't like federal agents interfering. |

Re: 24 Season 8 Begins 17th Jan by cabali(m): 2:17am On Mar 20, 2010 |
Ok thanks for an episode that puts a stop to all the exchange of words. It was getting kinda nasty |
