one of the best and most original ideas for a tv series i have ever seen, and although i have only seen the first 2 i reckon the other 2 are just as good?
Anyone else into this amazing series?
Full Version: 24
Abso-f***ing-lutely! 
I agree: original and good idea. One of my favourite series. All the seasons are good, but seasons 1 and 4 stand out.
What I love about it is that it isn't one to shy away from harsh realities - e.g. main characters die and the good guys have bad times (they get screwed over, in-agency politics, marriages go sour, loved-ones die, etc.). The good guys don't always win in every situation.
For instance, when you watch the 3rd season, defusion, you'll watch one of the harshest scenes/happenings I've even seen. It happens in episode 17, in a stark, lifeless train yard - and then the episode ends. If you have to watch the next epsiode a week later, it makes event even more harsh: you'll wonder for a week how it could actually have happened and what the repercussions are.
(Luckily I watched the box set, so I didn't have to wait a week
. Nonetheless, the event surprised me: I kept expecting it to be called off at the last minute.)
Sorry if this teases you, but for me it just reinforces why this is such a good series!
Oh, and 4th season... well, it's really made me look forward to the next season!

If i ever have a chance in that time frame to watch it i might just do it. I'm not going to watch the season finally that is on right now though i'll have to wait for the re-run or a new season.
24 is still one of the best shows, 5 yrs straight. This season is looking really good already lol
There have been several topics about this serie before, but it's an amazing serie IMO, one of the few I really watch
