24 7x07 Thoughts

Spoilers ahead…

 

A nice episode. The IP device is destroyed, so I wonder what will happen next. Dubaku is going to get the First Husband. Who cares… Jack, Bill, and Chloe are going to surface back again. Oh, and the plant manager dies. What a surprise… NOT…

24 7x06 - Thoughts

A nice episode. A few unrealistic scenes (well, it is 24 after all), such as the president’s husband killing that Secret Service agent, but other than that, a pretty solid episode. However, I think it was the first episode of 24 that has a large number of casualties, but doesn’t move me at all. Somehow they messed things up with the aircraft collision. Just a far away explosion that looked pretty fake.

Spoilers ahead!!!

 

 

Let me think, Jack Bauer forced to shoot a female coworker, and has to fake her death… hmm… sounds familiar.

Other than that, a fairly average episode, with a few inconsistencies.

BTW, don’t worry about Walker. I’m sure she took a deep breath.

24 7x03-04

Well, I have seen the two episodes today, after all. What can I say… It’s nice, nothing less, nothing more. Episode highlights:

1) The "battle” between Chloe and Janis. Chloe won!

2) Agent Walker pulling a “Bauer” on Tanner.

3) Tony is really a good guy (not really a surprise though…).

What’s next? Well, I guess Hillinger’s move is going to cost his wife’s life. Probably, as they are next to land, they are going to be a good target.

Spoilers ahead!

Yesterday evening I saw the first two episodes of 27, season 7. Well, I’d never thought I’d say it, but after a year I’ve missed Jack.

What has happened to Jack over this missing year? Well, he’s become more mellow.
What happened to CTU? Disbanded. But the FBI also has moles, so it’s OK.
What happened to to Chloe? She became Janeane Garofalo. Speaking of Janeane, it’s funny to see her here, so serious, and the comment about understanding sarcasm, was quite hilarious.

So, Tony is back. This is no surprise to anyone seeing the promos from last year. The plot isn’t surprising also to anyone who has seen Die Hard (key plot points taken from two Die Hard movies). However, bonus point for not taking down two planes.

Bottom line? Nice action, although sometimes boring in the White House scenes.

I’ll probably see the next two sometime this week (not today though).
