 Day2 is the best February 22, 2010
Flitcraft (Unreal City)
I've seen and re-seen all the seasons of 24 -- and am currently collecting the hours of Day8 (which I really wish was already over so I could watch them back to back!) -- and I think that this may be the best. Even when it's not necessarily my personal favorite, I think that it's objectively the best.
The reason is that it has so much in common with the stock blockbuster disaster thriller (e.g., Armageddon, Independence Day), namely in the way it goes from all these disparate groups of people who are brought together by the potential disastrous event; and it also is the most, as it were, "Clancyesque" of the seasons. I always note how most action movies start right here, where the ex-agent has suffered some great loss before now, which is alluded to but we do not actually see -- yet in the case of 24, we have seen it, and thus does Day1 function as a sort of prequel -- and is the reason why he retired, yet he is called back in For This One Assignment, because no one else can. And Jack Bauer's role in this is just so much more "Leader of the Pack" rather than his later adventures, which often remind me of Die Hard (viz., after Day3) -- not that they are worse or better on that account (I love Die Hard(s)), but just different.
I've also noticed that Sean Callery's music, something about the way he arranges it in this particular season, is way more intense than most seasons. There are certain sequences that I have not heard on either of the official soundtracks.
24--DVD only way to watch February 12, 2010

These are awesome no commercials, you can start watching and hard to stop. looking forward to getting next season.
Best US TV Series December 21, 2009
Charles Valenzuela
Always good and usually great. I can watch again and again, and I do. A thrill a minute for 24 hours. If you watch the whole thing in one sitting it will leave you totally exhausted, as though you had actually been there with Jack as he foils the villains, treacherous co-workers, and incompetent managers.
An Event Better Season, Where Everything Was Turned Up A Notch December 12, 2009
M. Herzog (chicago)
This decade has suffered from far too many shows that had a great first season, but started to sink in later seasons. Luckily, 24 avoided this trap, and produced a second season that was largely better than the first. The story provided bigger stakes, and was largely more consistent as well as political than the first. Jack Bauer's character developed, becoming far colder and harsher after the loss of his wife from season 1. Without going too much into details, I was impressed with the stories, how they interwove, and how they were all linked together. That is, with the exception of Kim Bauer, Jack's daughter. This story was boring, bland, detracted from the story, and while it started fairly interesting, got to a point of frustration where I started fast-forwarding as I was so tired of her story (which I have never done in a show before). I feel the writers wanted to keep the family elements from the first season around, but were having severe difficulty making it work. That being said, this season was an improvement over an already great first season, which was already pretty great.
I think its odd how often a show can have a great first season but fall into the sophomore slump for so many modern shows. I'm thrilled that 24 avoided falling into this trap and turned out a season that was better on all fronts than the first. If you enjoyed the first season, you will love the second.
24 season 2 July 14, 2009
the Critic (Illinois)
if you like 24 you need this- each time I watch I understand and pick up on more. It's like a great book, I can't stop watching for hours. Seller was fast and I highly recommend.
