Seeing as how we only have a few weeks to wait now!
I have Season 7 synopsis here it's only a short recap of episodes but it was enough to remind me of a few things I had forgotten!

Namely Tony being 'good' all along and wanting revenge for (pregnant) Michelle, and Renee going into the interogation room with a very 'Jack' expression on to 'ersuade' Wilson to confess. Oh, and in the dull presidential bits that's skanky moo daughter getting in the shit for ordering a hit. (hey, that rhymes!)
So, anyone know when it is starting on Sky? In US I think it's the 17th so we would normally get it on the 24th and 25th but can't find listings!

Did not expect that.

Keep thinking this could be jacks last season. I love jack

Actually, I wasn't that bothered by "the twist" as I find Dana so annoying. Off you go and work with the baddies and maybe we won't see so much of you (poor Freddie Prinze Jr though).

Convenient that there is a handy body sized storage area in the interview room and no one around to see what was going on.

Oh and given how big New York is everything seems to be within a 10 min drive. Eg Jack's apartment was close enough for Renee to find him within about 15 mins despite NSA having traffic restrictions in place. It would take me that long to get out of the building!

IMO 24 just seems to be a bit "so what" this series.

JackRabbitBauer · 28/03/2010 23:07

ibang, now stop it the terrorists seem quite posh, they wouldn't venture too far from a ncie area within range of CTU.
Although not enough time driving is one thing, what about 15 minutes of gunfire exchange whiel theya re sitting ducks and no-one gets shot? Who trained these guys, stormtroopers?

ibangthedrums · 29/03/2010 14:26

I am glad I dont live in the bit of New York that has
CTU
Jack's apartment
nice posh terrorists
deserted banks ideal for holding hostages, waterfront warehouses to sneak across to lauch a nuclear weapon
wastelands with a handy lake ideal for dumping a body
Dana's apartment
a warehouse that Dana's ex and his psycho friend could rob and a handy post robbery seedy nightclub
Constant ineffective gun fire/bombs going off

Imagine if you looked out of your window at 3am - you would have a heart attack!

anonacfr · 29/03/2010 18:17

This series is the pits. They even managed to make Chloe annoying.

JackRabbitBauer · 29/03/2010 22:39

correction

'They even managed to make Chloe more annoying. '

ibang, when youn put it like that....it's like walford!

DoNotFeedMeBiscuits · 29/03/2010 22:53

oh, come on guys - Chloe rocks.

'I don't do well with praise'? comedy genius.

JackRabbitBauer · 29/03/2010 22:59

brilliant

kittya · 30/03/2010 00:40

I dont know why but I loved the fact that Jacks appartment was in the Chelsea hotel or, next to it. Seems apt.

alypaly · 30/03/2010 01:05

i think chloe is brilliant ...but her facial expressions.........hmmm
How long must she practice being 'cross' in front of the mirror.

kittya · 30/03/2010 01:11

Does she ever check in with her husband to find out if her kid is ok? I like her hair colour. The twist didnt surprise me one bit.

anonacfr · 30/03/2010 08:37

I don't know. We've seen her pained expression and snarky comments too many times.

I find that all the 'regulars' are just caricatures of themselves in this series. And the new guys are just dull.

The 'twist' left me totally cold. After Dana murdered the fat parole officer it was a cop out to make her the mole.

sockmonkey · 30/03/2010 10:37

ROFFLE at "who trained them, storm troopers?" hahahaha.
Chloe is great, no dissing of the Chloe!!

I did not see the Dana thing coming, I actually really enjoyed this episode, looks like things are getting back on track. Don't they have cameras in the interview rooms? Will they have been knocked out by EMP blast?

Loujalou · 30/03/2010 10:39

I think that Dana is still wooden and they make the story lines up as they go along hence why no one guessed the twist. Do feel for Freddy / Cole though.

sockmonkey · 30/03/2010 11:40

unless he's in on it???? Oooh now that would be a twist!! Jack does seem to like him, and isn't it always the case?!

Loujalou · 30/03/2010 12:06

That would be a twist and a half but I think I would still feel sorry for him as that Dana seems a bit of a funny fish!

PlumBumMum · 30/03/2010 12:10

It still isn't rescuing it for me,

but it has made it a bit better she will have to get killed now!

JackRabbitBauer · 30/03/2010 12:15

Yeah, Jack should know better than to trust anyone. He seemed pretty keen to hide the bodies as well
Dana actress is shiteola yes.

alypaly · 31/03/2010 09:15

wonder if renee is a double agent? hmmmmmmmm

sockmonkey · 31/03/2010 16:12

Renee too damaged to be double agent, but bet she will be killed off, cant see her & jack riding off into the sunset.

sockmonkey · 05/04/2010 08:20

Oooh. Getting a bit more action packed. Loving it.

What is Tarin going to do with himself, stuck in a van waiting 15 mins before bomb goes off? My vote... finding some smoooooth jazz on the radio.

JackRabbitBauer · 07/04/2010 08:21

Tarin is such a pussy, no way will he be able to stop himself calling the pres's daughter to say goodbye or something!

Really, really don't want Renee to die, if this is the last one Jack deserves a happy ending. (gf's in coma's, wife dead, best friend dead, kidnapped by chinese, partner armless, faking own death, killing father, dying of virus thing....poor bloke)
Unfortunately they finshed filming before it was cancelled so they might not have given him his happy ending after all

lovbeingdad · 07/04/2010 13:42

Saw double episode last night episode 15 and 16 last night ... It was excellent. Which episode is sky up too?

Loujalou · 07/04/2010 13:57

I can see Tarin more into some funky drum and bass. Well maybe not. Think he is going to run and leave the truck so he gets picked up by cameras or something.
