Okay, through away your baby name books, I think this is a brilliant selection although there seem to be so many more boys than girls. I will try to dig up more girls. I am sick today and having a bed day, dh and ds gone out for the day. I have nohting better to do than meditate on all the characters of 24

Audrey, Renee, Nina, Teri, Kim, Chloe, Michelle, Sherry, Kate, Erin, Alison, Karen, Janis, Nadia, Martha (Logan), Sandra (Palmer), Marilyn (BAuer)

Jack, Tony, Bill, Edgar, Morris, Chase, Aaron, David, George, Larry, Ryan, Milo, Ethan, Curtis, Charles (Logan), Mike (Novac), Noah (Daniels) James (Heller), Henry (Taylor), Paul (Raines), Tom (Lennox), Phillip (Bauer), Graeme (Bauer)

PlumBumMum · 23/05/2009 11:17

Since I wasn't around for last seasons thread, did anyone think that Jacks brothers son was really Jacks?

SesHasFinallyBecomeAMum · 23/05/2009 12:56

Remember me from posting earlier in the series?
This is fast turning into a "stages of pg thread"!!

Congrats sockmonkey & Audrey
DS was born 2 weeks ago today! (I have posted BS in birth announcements if anyone wants a read)

Have managed to keep up with 24 thanks to Sky+

I agree about Jack's nephew being his son. Hope that gets explored next series.

audreyraines · 23/05/2009 12:58

wasn't on the last thread, but did cross my mind at the time!

PlumBumMum · 23/05/2009 12:59

Congrats Ses, Did you use a 24 name?, I will read your BS later, (or maybe I shouldn't or I will get very broody!)making lunch at the min

audreyraines · 23/05/2009 13:00

congrats ses, i just hope you named baby after a 24 character please tell me you did, however obscure the character is.

i heart sky plus. it has revolutionised my pregnancy!

SesHasFinallyBecomeAMum · 23/05/2009 13:01

Thanks PlumBumMum
Err... Don't remember there being an Owen in 24...

SesHasFinallyBecomeAMum · 23/05/2009 13:03

Sorry audrey, x-posted...
Maybe there'll be an Owen in the next series...

audreyraines · 23/05/2009 13:08

lovely birth story too. will live in hope for an owen in the next series, or the ... movie ...

Jacksmama · 23/05/2009 14:50

Add me to the list of people who thought Jack's nephew is actually his son. Too bad about the mum though, she was annoying.

Errmmm... and I won't/ can't join the 24 pregnancy club... does that mean I have to go now?

audreyraines · 23/05/2009 15:28

Awwww, you can stay Jacksmama.

Another lurker outing themselves to say they have loved following this thread. I am a devoted 24 watcher since the first series -spent every Sunday evening on the end of my boyfriends bed, watching on his tiny telly rapt while he slept, trying to ignore my longstanding Kiefer love. Now we've been living together for 6 years and I get to watch it properly on a nice big telly - though he still insists on calling him Keith-er just to wind me up. Anyway, thought I'd out myself as also have a 24 pregnancy (first baby, boy due July 20th) and thought I could make the sad admission here that when the series started I actually counted the weeks ahead on the calendar to see how far gone I would be when it ended - - as it turns out, not as far as I thought cos they've doubled up a few . If we settle on the name we think we will then the baby won't have the name of a character but I did notice in the credits after one episode that he will have the name of one of the actors (the one who was in cahoots with Tony and hid out in that building after Tony killed Larry, for the detectives amongst you)- think that makes me even sadder

Thank you again for the entertainment, roll on Monday night

audreyraines · 23/05/2009 16:01

oh we are so loveable here aren't we

that name reference is even too obscure for me. maybe i can rewatch some episodes to figure it out [saddo emoticon]

ohfuschia · 23/05/2009 16:15

happy to provide an excuse

JackBauerKillsPigs · 23/05/2009 21:48

disclaimer. This post may include obscene language and abuse of a major character.

You SEE!
She can't fucking HELP herself! Always getting fucking kidnapped or trusting the wrong people. WHY the fuck Jack didn't lock her in the FBI stationery cupboard to make sure she couldn't fuck anything up is beyond me.

Useless whiney fake hair bitch.

PresidentTaylor · 23/05/2009 21:51

ohfuschia - I used to watch the first series on a tiny telly too on the end of my bed - though it was before I met DH and in a shared house I lived in. Didn't want to risk watching it in the living room in case anyone dared to speak and I missed any dialogue!

When DC2 was newborn I convinced DH he would love it and we bought series one on DVD (had to fight to keep my mouth shut re the whole Nina thing). Series 1-5 got us all through DC2s first few months of evening cluster feeding! This is the first series I have watched 'live' since series one and baby DC3 joins us for the odd episode if she doesn't fancy sleeping .

Think my DH loves Kiefer as much as I do too!

KimBauer · 23/05/2009 21:53

Sorry.

Really, really sorry.

JackBauer · 23/05/2009 22:03

Hello lurkers! We nearly chose a 24 name for DD's but unintentionally, honest

I wasn't on the last thread as I didn't want spoilers but agree about the nephew/son thing, we honestly thought it would come into it with the mum saying that he had to rescue him as he was his son or something.

BillSilverFoxBuchanan · 24/05/2009 09:25

DD was going to be 'Maia' until I'd seen 24 - it put me right off!

As much as I adore Kiefer Sutherland, part of me cannot get over just how not sexy his name is.

It just doesn't work does it?

Oooooh Kiefer
Give it to me harder Kiefer

Wrong.

audreyraines · 24/05/2009 11:06

PMSL Bill!

I wouldn't call him Keifer, I'd just call him Jack. Hopefully he wouldn't mind.
