My cable's on the fritz and keeps cutting out (I blame the cold), so I might be missing a good chunk of our favorite catch phrases. Apologies in advance, but I know your salty asses will correct me pretty much immediately, so away we go...
Bill Buchanan and Chloe come to the rescue of buried-alive Renee. The way Bill launched himself down into that ravine, I'm surprised that he didn't crush little Renee's windpipe. That would have been a big oops.
Ugh! THANK YOU!!!! I totally couldn't remember that dude Christopher Anderson's name. I feel so much better now that I know the name of the bad guy that season. 24 is sort of like chinese food. I'm totally into all the characters during that season, but the second the season is over, I forget who everyone is. What gives? That never happened to me with Friends.
The jig is up! Now Tony and Jack can't be double agents to the double agents. Wait--or are they still double agents as Buchanan's Crusaders? Are all the good guys unwitting double agents if all the bad guys are in the prez's office? I'm so confused.
I'm thinking of adding the term "endgame" to my Jack Bauer Power Hour. Gotta figure out how to fit that in.
What does the CIP device do? I still don't know. One of you tell me! I know you know! Does it just hack into air traffic control? WTF? Or can it get into any system? This is dumb.
The Prez is pretty ballsy. Was that dude who walked out of the war room the Secretary of Defense? Isn't that pretty much his turf? My concern with the Prez is...what's with the quiet moments of reflection? Doesn't she know that THERE'S NO TIME for that sort of thing?? heehee
We need more Chloe in these episodes. "Are you with the FBI?" "No, I'm a stay at home mom." She should give Garofs some lessons.
Renee has pruney face, but she's definetly going over to the double-agentry side. She better stop making faces like she's smelling farts and make with the damnits if she wants to fit in. Furthermore, her audible whisper needs some work. Tony and Jack have their work cut out for them with that one.
I truly can't take the Fetus Secret Service agent seriously. He looks like he should be on Friday Night Lights, not assigned to the First Dude. And you know he researched his role by watching American Psycho over and over. He thinks he's all Pat Bateman and shit. If he had paid attention, he would have known to wear a full length clear raincoat instead of just plastic gloves. Dumbass.
I had no idea Tony was a gem expert? I wonder if he has one of those magnifying monacle thingies. He's nifty.
Ah, double-crossery. Good times. Wait--didn't Jack shoot that dude in the foot? Was it one of those "dance, monkey dance" type moves? 'Cause that bad guy was NOT limping. Is this how it works? When a bad guy double-crosses you, do you take out one of his guys, then fire a warning shot at him & continue business? That's a little weird, no? Means to an end, I guess.
This fuckery happens a couple of times per season. Someone bests a murderous opponent that should easily out match him. How can the paralyzed First Dude, who can just barely move his little fingers I might add, be a match for Fetus Agent? Fetus Agent should be well-trained in multiple combat techniques. I don't get it.
WHAT??? I just saw the news teaser? Why do these bastards do this to me? There's a salmonella scare at Starbucks?? That means I may have had a delicious salmonella latte today! Oh, crap. I'll obviously be dead by morning. Please do avenge me.
Well, either there were none of the following in this episode, it was a total snooze, or the salmonella is already taking effect. I didn't count anything and Jack wasn't very smooth in this particular hour.
Damnits: negative
There's No/We Don't Have Time(s): nada
Things at which Jack Bauer is smooth: nope

12:00pm - 1:00pm ::boop beep boop beep::
We last left our daring duo (Jack & Tony) trying to break in to the safe room to kidnap Motobo, the African Prime Minister. Did they really need to tear through all that dry wall to guess that the giant room with the steel door was a safe room? I'm going to choose to guess that it's all part of their charade of double-agentry. Meanwhile, that new chick, Renee is totally angling to be the new Jack. She's all about going rogue and stuff.
This is all very interesting. I love that the guard is saved by a very timely call from the FBI. Damn you, 24! Why must you continually resort to the same tricks over and over! People are always shot or otherwise dispatched JUST before they divulge valuable information and people are always saved just a hair before getting offed for NOT giving up information.
I gotta say, I'm not loving Janis (Garofs) in this role. She's kind of a broke-down Chloe. I'm sure they tell these techie types to be painfully socially awkward, but I just don't buy it from Garofs. I don't think i like her in dramatic roles. She's meant to be biting and sarcastic, not twitchy and constipated-looking.
"Shut up. Or I will shut you up." hahahaha. Oh, Jack. I love when he gets all bitchy. Of course, he is trying to tell Renee the truth with his eyes in the truck. He can't stand when a good woman thinks he's a douche...or a "lying son of a bitch." But they always think that, don't they.
Oh, First Gentleman. Don't you know that the only trustworthy secret service agent is Secret Service Agent to the Stars, Aaron Pierce? You can't trust anyone else! Especially not a fetus of an agent that they have watching the first man.
YAAAAAY! Affairs in the FBI! They really ARE trying to be like CTU. What sluts! Billy Walsh and that Erica tramp start talking about what a relief it is that his wife is all safe and crap, and the next sentence, they're all drooly on each other. Government agencies are so immoral. And do Larry Moss and Renee Walker have a secret affair of some sort? I thought I detected a little sumthin' last episode, but I brushed it off thinking it was just bad acting.
What is the CIP device? Can't they spell that shit out for me once an episode or something? If you know, you better tell me, because it's driving me nuts.
Ugh. I'm so jealous of that apartment. And....DUH! Corrupt, fetus FBU agent was OBVIOUSLY going to kill the First Gentleman. The Prez is going to be so pissed when she finds out that her own corrupt administration killed everyone she loves. It's just rude.
Again, OBVIOUSLY, Jack wasn't going to kill a good agent such as Renee Walker, but how are he and Tony going to get around the pesky issue of how to make it look good and not bury her alive? Will our heroes find a way to keep their cover and save little Renee's life? Will their cover be blown? Will she be able to dig her way out of a dirt and plastic covered grave? Will her boyfriend Larry Moss find her in time? So many unanswered questions and so little caring about those answers.
::sigh:: I guess I'll be watching next week.
HAPPY DAY BEFORE INAUGURATION DAY!!!! SEE YA LATER, GEORGIE!!!!!
Damnit(s):
-A big one from that Larry Moss dude, the FBI boss guy, when Renee gets nabbed.
There's no/we don't have times:
-I think there was one when the head of the rogue spy ring wanted to bail on trying to break into the safe room. What was it?
-"We're on a timetable." when he's trying to get out of burying Renee Walker alive. The wording isn't exact, but it's just semantics. I count it.
Things at which Jack Bauer is smooth:
-Making a gas chamber using household cleaners in the ventilation system.
-Pretending to shoot someone in the head.

10:00am - 12:00pm ::boop beep boop beep::
Night #2 and hours 3 and 4 in Season 7, huh? That's a whole lotta 24.
Well, away we go...
10:00am - 12:00pm ::boop beep boop beep::
OH, I'm sorry--you can't rebuilt firewalls for 6 days? Yeah, that's right. YOU can't rebuild firewalls, but you know who can? Jack Bauer. Just kidding...he can't. But Chloe can! And I don't mean substitute Chloe (aka. Garofs). You need the real Chloe up in this piece. When is she going to show? Obviously in this episode.
Moley moley moley mole. Only people with Level 4 clearance are allowed around Tony, huh? What are you NEW? The best moles have the highest clearance. Hell, even President Jerkface Logan sold out his wife and his country. Clearance doesn't go any higher than that, biatch.
Is it bad that I laughed through the whole Jack/Tony screaming/choking match? I don't think that's the reaction they were going for. And for real? What did Tony say? oh, deep sky. HELL YES!!! BILL BUCHANAN!!! He looks svelte, no? Tony is totally the new Jack! Under cover on secret missions from the good guys. So THAT'S how they're going to get the Scooby gang back together. Tony had to piss Jack off enough to get him close and whisper sweet nothings in his ear. Those tricksters.
Quite a pickle this whole Africa business is, huh? You know what's behind it? ALL THE DAMN MOLES! As expected, Billy Walsh is a shady cat. He's definitely doing something he's not supposed to, but it's probably just working on a sequel to Medellin. Although, whenever someone goes to the mainframe room, murder ensues. Oh! Check it out! scary business in the mainframe room. Terminal 4 is nothing but trouble. I don't buy the wife-on-the-plane business, though.
HAHAHA!! "Don't fight it" when Jack's choking out that Rene chick. Priceless. Don't get upset about it. It's all about getting the Jack and Tony dream team back together. I guess Chloe's little hacking adventure is the leak they're chasing down. Duh. Now it's like a showdown between Garofs and Chloe. Garofs might win this one, but Jack and Tony will blast their way out and we'll be fine. Don't be scurrd. Mostly, I'm just disappointed in Chloe for missing some key "Damnit" opportunities. But to be fair, Jack did miss a "We're pinned down" opportunity, too. 'Cause you know what happens when you're pinned down? You go out the window. Obviously.
I missed Tony. I know it's weird that he's back from the dead and everything, but I ain't mad at him. If he's alright in Buchanan's book, he's alright in mine. Even if BB's getaway car of choice is a periwinkle van. You heard right. Periwinkle. I love the new 3-man mini CTU. The only one missing is Karen Hayes.
OK, so I was totally wrong about Billy Walsh's wife. Still don't trust him, but whatever. I like that he's being all shady to land his wifey's plane.
I don't like the side story with the president's kid and everything. I know we need some other urgent side story, but mysteries wrapped in mysteries are just annoying in this show. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know it all ties together, but it just irritates the crap out of me. I mean, obviously that Samantha chick is dead. Her ass is definitely gonna get shot or something. And the fetus Secret Service agent is working for the baddies. It all goes back to the Secretary of Defense Ethan Kanin, right?
Looks like little Rene Walker learned a little something something from Jackypoo. Torture comes easy wen you don't get what you want, huh? She should seriously be thanking Jack. Think they'll add her to their team? Maybe next season.
In the meantime, we'll have to see if our dream team can save the prime minister from certain death without blowing their cover. DUN DUN DUN!!!!!!!
Sorry--you'll just have to wait until next week. I know, that's a super long time to wait for more 24 after 2 days worth of double doses. I guess it was Fox's way of making up for how long it was between seasons.
Damnit(s):
-"Damnit, Tony! Why didn't you call the authorities?!" Jack, very disappointed in Tony for working for the bad guys and slowly realizing his ass is going to go under with the baddies, too.
-Presidential Damnit: "Damnit, Ethan. Do you want another Bay of Pigs?" Very presidential. Good times.
There's no/We don't have time(s):
-"You're running out of time. You don't have a better option." Score one for Jack, talking his way into a heart-to-heart with Tony.
Things at which Jack Bauer is smooth:
-Understanding secret codes whispered ever so slightly into his superhuman ears. Seriously...deep throat? I mean sky?
-Driving a car onto the 3rd floor roof without looking.
-As always, making and using human shields with spectacular results.
Well, away we go...

8am - 10am ::boop beep boop beep::
Well cats and kittens, since we're such gluttons for punishment, we are all back for more of the hot mess that 24 has turned into. It's been a long road since Jacky-poo last saved all our asses and we've all forgotten where things left off. Something about Jack standing on a hill either about to jump or run away and flee the long arm of the law. BUT WAIT! We got a stop gap update a couple of months back that apparently, Jack took a break from saving our American asses to go save African children's asses so that they don't get turned into child soldiers. Good job, Jack.
I didn't count Damnits or There's no/we don't have time(s) in the mini-movie, but I will tell you that you can add a new one to your list of things at which Jack Bauer is smooth:
-Snapping a man's neck with both hands tied behind his back (ok, well over his head anyway) using only his legs. Keifer musta learned that move in the chokey. Badass.
8am - 10am ::boop beep boop beep::
NEW SEASON!!!!
Jack's on trial and some saucy new chick is obviously going to be his new love interest. That is, unless Audrey Raines gets out of the booby hatch and they can have a tearful reunion. Not bloody likely. You knew new chick Renee Walker is definitely going to get the hots for our favorite super agent Do you think Jack is going to show up in court tomorrow morning? He's going to be awfully tired from saving the world all day.
Janine Garofalo?? Is she the new Chloe? Sweet finger tattoo, Garofs. And this Sean business? No way. That dude has always been and will always be that nutbag Billy Walsh from Entourage.
AAAAND Tony Almeida is back from the dead. And apparently he's mad as hell and isn't gonna take it anymore. He must avenge the death of Michele Dessler!!! (Sidebar: For you loyal readers, you'll remember that the episode where Tony done got done in was the the episode that kicked off my rambling rants as well as the subsequent downhill slide of my love for 24. Clearly, I'm just not able to let go. Don't let me down, 24!! You've had a long time to give me something good here and I'm opening my heart to you once again. I wonder if I still have that original rant. Let me know if you want to see it and I will dig back through my gmail to see if I can find it.)
OK, hold on...the president's son wasn't killed in the 24 mini-movie, right? Did I forget that? I know they took out his coked-up,weaselly friend. Also, I wonder if the female president this season means that we'll have a female president in 2016. 2012 would be too soon. The US needs time to let the subliminal presidential message sink in. We might not have elected Obama if it wasn't for the exemplary service of one David Palmer. You know David Palmer paved the way.
I smell some torture a-brewing. Cut to 2 seconds later: OH MY GOD!!! Jack didn't even have to torture the guy! Just grab a pen and threaten to draw on his face! He's so scary like that. Of course, some perfectly timed sniper fire keeps us from any information. What we do know is that Tony Almeida is all-knowing and steps ahead of Jack for the first time in forever. Damn, Tony. Don't kill the innocents on the plane. That shit is cold blooded.
YES!!!! Love that we've already got a mole this season. In the FBI this time. Yeah, that's right. It's not just CTU that has all the moley moley moles. It's funny to me that they confiscated Jack's gun, but they should be more worried about his fists of fury and his lethal legs. They snap necks, you know. I'm also thinking that this Walker broad definitely has some romantic interest already in place in the FBI. I just can't decide if it's Larry Moss, the boss dude or Garofs. I wouldn't be surprised if they popped in a lezzie couple.
They're definitely making air traffic control look like a super exciting job. You know that shit is boring as hell. And I love that Tony calls the air traffic control manager directly. That dude can't possibly be important enough to warrant a direct call from Tony. He should be talking only to Jack. I mean, he has already co-opted the patented Jack Bauer audible whisper. How great would it be if they had an audible whisper phone conversation at least once an hour. It would all be very urgent.
MOLES!!!!! Moles everywhere. Way to stick with the formula, kids.
Damnits:
-2 from Renee! New chick kicking the season off with a bang! The first was an inwardly directed damnit for lying to her boss, but whatevs. The second, a whisper-damnit on the boat when she saw the file deletion was complete. We need a kick-ass Jack Bauer one, though. They are always way more powerful.
-Whisper damnit from Jack right before he chases Tony.
All in all, a weak showing on the Damnit front this first night.
There's no/We don't have time(s):
I didn't catch any. Did you? It's pretty early in the day for people to think they're running out of time. Of course, you bitches all love to correct my ass, so if you catch any, I bow to your superior listening skills.
Things at which Jack Bauer is smooth:
-Torturing a man by forcibly drawing on his face. You know he was totally going to write "DICK" in big letters on scarface.
-Noticing stuff. He noticed sniper guy's shoes. He noticed moles all over the place. He notices everything. His powers of observance are unparallelled.
Ok, that's all I got for now. We'll see if I make it through the whole season. I don't even know if any of you read this anymore. I know a crapload of people quit this 24 bitch long ago. But what the hell, let's see how long we can make this last. Happy new year!!!
