Don’t Forget: 24 Season Six Premieres Sunday Night!
Jan 10, 2007 by Vic Holtreman
Just a little reminder for you to remember to set your Tivos for the sixth season of 24 premiering with a two hour episode on Sunday night, followed by another two hours on Monday (sweet!). You can still join in on the show as every season has a brand new storyline, and you’ll get to know the characters soon enough.
When we last left Jack Bauer he had been hauled off to China by government agents (in a shipping container!) as retribution for his attack on the Chinese embassy in Los Angeles, which he did without “official” authorization in order to help stop a terrorist attack. It seems at least from the trailer for this season that he will choose to go on a suicide mission to stop a massive terrorist attack that will take place all across the U.S.
Suicide mission… yeah, right. He’s been dead before, right? Heck, I think he’s already been dead TWICE on the show.
I wish I had the self-control to just Tivo the whole bloody season and then do a marathon weekend, but I know it’ll never happen. These guys are masters of the weekly cliffhanger and that makes this show tough to watch and have to wait a full week for the following episode. Acutally I came up with a solution to that, but my wife won’t go for it (this only works if you record it):
I figure if you stop watching each episode about 5 minutes before the end, you can have a peaceful night’s sleep, because the cliffhanger always comes within the last 30 seconds of each episode. That way you’d just watch the last 5 minutes on the following broadcast date, see the cliffhanger, and be able to go right into the next episode.
Brilliant, ain’t it?

Every character except Jack seems to end up resigning or dying at some point, so missing previous seasons should pose no problem at all.
Personally, I like to watch shows all the way up to the cliffhanger at the end. That way, I have an adrenaline “high” to come down from…

Oh, sure, I like that feeling too. I just don’t like waiting an entire week for the resolution. I want it NOW!!!

Vic,
With that attitude, it appears you’re living in the right country. >:-D
Brian
I’ll be there! Don’t forget to turn the Tivo on…
I have Tivo built into my DirecTV box and it doesn’t have an off switch so I can’t turn it off.

I haven’t seen more than 3 episodes ever, so this is fresh stuff. GREAT, awesome entertanment!
Looks like a bit of a slower start this season but it’ll get fired up soon enough.
Next episode: Nuke???

Another season of 24 begins.
I watched the premiere last night. Let me tell you: “Amazing.”
It started off slowly, then sped up, and up, until I was at the edge of my seat.
Jack Bauer? Synonymous with “Always Delivers.”
Tonight is the conclusion to the start of the season, and I can’t friggen’ wait.
Hours 3 & 4 were definitely up to the high standards of previous seasons.

24 IS GOOD AND A MIND BLOWING STRATEGY, KEEP IT GOING UNTILL SEASON 24
