The Jack Bauer Power Hour thread is now open for business

[JackBauerisreadyforDay8]

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!

Jack Deemeented is looking for you

Can't stop singing 'Just walk away Renee' in my head now

Hello, hello, where is Dee looking?

We didn't watch the second until last night, Maybe Renee hasn't gone Kerrazy then, she's hardcore.
Loving jakc's angry German as well.

I didn't watch Lost but recognise that blondy russian brother, is that who you mean? He's so familiar it's driving me mad.
It's reached one of those stops when nothing is happening right now so am going to wait and see what happens, data bloke is going to spot what Anneka is up to I think and grass her to Chloe, who will either help with a piss face on or grass her up as well. You never know

Jack

Blonde Russian brother was in Heroes, Adam I think? I know it was bugging me too, but it came to me last night when watching.

Vlad reminded me of Daniel Craig.

Heroes! Thank you!

No the lost guy is the one that dressed up as the policeman he was in Green mile and Xfiles

Oh no one mentioned Jacks NHS glasses, must have only been me thought they were

NHS glasses are obviously how you look like a german business man.

Blonde Russian brother also played baddie Sark in Alias.

Oh, eugene? Didn't know he had been in Lost as well. I sometimes think they should ban known actors from 24, it's too confusing.
I was distracted enough by Jack's family being Romano + Babe's farmer!

EOJ - I kept asking DH why Farmer Hoggitt had turned so evil... Babe must have turned out to be a baaaad pig and broken his heart.

the fact that none of us have been on the thread is signs that I'm afraid.........................DON'T SHOOT ME JACK.........
.....BUT...........
has 24 seen its day???
I'm afraid even the suspense that they don't know where Jack is, dosen't bother me, Jack will be fine!
DAna is a dosy cow who will get caught out and the presidents daughter will come to her boyfriends rescue and take over from her Dad

Been away this weekend, but will hopefully catch up with the action tonight.

Thread is a lot quieter this year... maybe once threat is more established things will get going.

Is it just me, or is this series...well... just a little bit boring?

Yeap skiffler look to my last post

I was just coming to say a similar thing PBM - and the other problem is that it all just feels like one big deja vu to me too. Maybe it will pick up, but if it doesn't, I'm not even sure I'll watch to the end, and I don't remember ever saying that before.

Don't lose faith... I'm sure it will pick up. I think they just need to up the peril/time limit situation. ATM there seems to be no urgency to find the uranium like there was with the nerve gas last series because there is no timteable to setting it off.

Ah, I see I'm repeating you, PBM - must have missed that. But you were whispering...

Let's hope you're right sockmonkey and it picks up soon.

Its okay Skiffler I just didn't want to whisper again for fear it maybe true,
lets all go drink the bottle of half full wine that sockmonkey is drinking

Anyone else think Chloe has got reeeeeaaally skinny? She's never been big, bit she looked skellital (SP?) in last episode.

Will that be the end of Renee then? Has she gone loopy for the last time? Her eyes may fall out of sockets if she continues to stare like that.

But did you see Renee stabbing him? and then Jack lefthanded throwing the knife from his stomach across the back of the sofa into the russian guys throat? It was pure genius, DH, FIL and I all burst out laughing and my mum called me in the ad break she thought it was so funny.

And none of you can tell me the plots have ever been realistic, not-obvious or sensible really, can you? Huh?
President gets in trouble wiht some intrigue thing, Jack is only man who can solve crisis/has info, plus someone won't believe him, someone else in CTU has a problem and causes trouble by not just owning up, come on, it's utter unbelieveable shite but it's good shite. Better than Eastenders anyway.

haven't read the whole thread, and new to the jack bauer power hour ( hello all!) but what is it with Dana and the one shoulder hair do? It's driving me insane and putting me off her whole storyline.

Who's going to be the baddie at CTU though?

Oh god yes, WTF is wrong with ehr hair, would that not piss you off beyond belief? Are we supposed to think the super high tec bluetooth headset things won't work with hair over them?
I just wish she was wearing something with sleeves, it is hugely irritaitng me for some reason.

And hi! welcome, feel free to add your theories but no actual spoilers!

I think the big bad will be the tech boy whose name escapes me. But the big boss guy is obviosuly a class A tosspot so hopefully he will end up having to do a Chapelle

Yes I totally agree and can't put my finger on it but does she talk funny, I mean her lips all pouty or something???

Don't think they have a baddy a CTU just strange Dana/Jenny,
don't think we are seeing enough of Cole though,
I think he could kick some bad ass, after all he has come face to face with a mad hook weilding pscho serial killer fisherman
