    If i were rating the show from the beginning, it would definitely be a 10, but i'm rating this on just this current season, so far. To be honest, it hasn't grabbed my attention as much as last season did right from the get-go. Still GREAT television, but th presence of both Tony and Palmer are sorely missed. Hopefully we won't have to wait much longer before Tony comes out If i were rating the show from the beginning, it would definitely be a 10, but i'm rating this on just this current season, so far.

Hopefully we won't have to wait much longer before Tony comes out of that coma! In the meantime, characters like Edgar and Curtis are picking up the slack admirably, but.. they aren't Tony :P… Expand

    I am sooo crazy about Jack Bauer! I love him! Jack, if i could have just one wish in this world, it would be to meet you, say hey and hug you. I love the way you perform.

    This has been the best season thus far. Last season was a little gimmicky and overwrought. Season 5 is hitting on all cylinders. Nothing else on TV remotely close to this. This show is not for everyone, especially if you don't like tension.

    Stop reading this review right now and go out and buy the DVDs, if you haven't seen them. And the new season is amazing so far.

    I was worried 24 would eventaully get stale, but even as the storyline is party overused, I find season 5 to be every bit as enjoyable as the many days before it.

    I'm giving this a ten because it is more exciting than any movie, you can watch it at home, its full of suspense,its full of surprises, and because its full of action. I love it!

    Jack is the real deal Folks!!! He does what every agent is trained to do, but people are shocked to see! This is the best written and most accurate portrayal of life as an agent ever!

    Best TV Show Ever. You jump out of your seat every minute. Best Season Premiere Ever. The first 15 minutes are like a whole season. Unbelievable.

    A TV show which is consistently better than theater release thrillers. Asks very tough questions and gives no easy answers. Forces viewers out of the hollywood pipedream of convenient "magic wand" solutions and into the unconfortable realm of choosing the lesser evil. If you don't get it you're unworthy of it. Go play your game cube.

    "24" should now really be titled "120" - which is, coincidentally, about the number of ways this show is overrated.

    Unashamedly brilliant. Pushes the envelope in every field and becomes the new benchmark to which other TV dramas can only dream of aspiring to.

    Gripping. It's that simple. Of course there are logical and logistical holes, but the show's goal is grabbing you by the throat and never letting go. I can't say where the rest of the season is going, but the first four episodes were compelling and gripping every single step of the way.

    This show never fails you. No slow plot lines. No wasted dialogue. You're hooked from the first minute, and you don't get unhooked for the next 24 hours.

    All I can say its been 2 days since I saw the show and I am still breathless at its conclusion. The final scene..."Flank 2" for those that have seen the show was one of the most action tense filled 10 minutes I have ever witnessed on televison and probably film as well. I just sit here watching it over and over....reliving the excitement of it all. Thanks you Kiefer and all those at 24 All I can say its been 2 days since I saw the show and I am still breathless at its conclusion.

    Fast, furious and intelligent, the new season of "24" is already setting new standards of excellence. The BEST show on television just got better -- and my life away from the television just shortened by a minimum of 20 more hours!

    The only way this season could be better is if they end up giving Chloe a machine gun again...

    I didn’t know how 24 could top last season, but so far it’s working. And the edge of my seat is already frayed.
