24: Day 5... BOOM!
So once again we're starting another loooong day in the life of Jack and the gang. I'm not going to review much of what happened in the first couple of hours, except to say that yes, it was good (two major recurring characters killed in first ten minutes?!). Can't wait to see what happens next.
Did anyone else watch it? HELLO? I think they must've been paying attention to the comments on Dan's post about how unrealistic the computer systems in 24 are. In day 5 episode 2, Jack actually tells Chloe the IP address of the computer he's at (and it's an actual proper IP address) so she can sent a decription program to it. Which is slightly more realistic than the much-criticised 'send that to my screen' malarkey (although I did hear the 'send it to my screen' line at least twice in the episode).
Anyway, I'll definitely be incommunicado from 9pm-11pm next Sunday, coz it'll be 9am in 24 land, and Jack's in trouble... :-)

You never did like Jack, did you? I mean, I know he's a cold-blooded killer and all, but you gotta give the guy credit for saving the world and all that.

I don't think I can watch 24 on TV anymore...it's much better suited to watching all at once!

Actually I find that the way Sky are showing the first few episodes if "Day 5" in doubles is great, more than two hours of 24 in a row is kinda exhausting, and one episode just isn't enough. :-)
