Indeed - the russian plot is the only interesting. I like the fact that the russian boss is played by a German actor and Jack spoke (not understandable) German. Maybe we see some more German badass this season wink

The Dana plot is so stupid it hurts to watch it - what a waste of the Starbuck awesomeness potential sad
We can only hope that the two lame cons get killed soon and Danas secret is really important to a new story line.

The political plot is really weak - it started ok but it kinda stalled and is now just boring.

Jack was fun - I loled hard when...

+ show spoiler

...he got stabbed by Renee, pulled the knife out and threw it right into the Russian. The knife went all the way into Jacks belly but he patched it up with a small band-aid and only blinked once

hilarious big_smile

Maybe because you don't understand Russian language smile When I hear Russian texts (and awful accents) in such movies, only word how I can describe it is pathetic smile

And all this "russian gangster" thingy in American interpretation is funny and very far from reality wink

Re: Season 8

I think you didn't get my point - anyway Russian / German badass is all fine by me. I know it's far from reality but still funny in an American tv show smile

Re: Season 8

First half = yawn
Second half = yeah!!!111 (not counting Dana's scenes)

Final cliffhanger wasn't that great but I'm forgiving since it's the only way to move on with the season without introducing entirely new villains/threats.

Re: Season 8

From the beginning I was rooting for Dana to off that loser. It seemed the only logical way to get out of the situation even at episode 2, but I'm suspecting the hunt for Dana is open for the next 3-4 episodes, she'll get arrested, they find out they need her but won't release her, Chloe breaks her out, they have wild lesbian sex which will undoubtably be censored completely but we know they'll do it and she's back in the game helping Jack but she gets killed by one of the 3 spies in CTU, probably her fiancee. Then "annoying other guy snooping about Dana's stuff" will kill him and Dana will love annoying guy forever which will be portrayed in Season 9 when they have a baby.

Re: Season 8

Another bad episode. At the moment I only enjoy Renee & Jack scenes. wink

The only thing that surprised me was Hastings actually THINKING (wow!).

Re: Season 8

It was not a bad episode! Although I didn't like that Sark is gone tongue

But I'm glad these two cons are actually gone. Starbucks is now open for better story lines. Her secret is out, even if we still don't know what it is.

It was just a matter of time before Jack was back in the usual seat, Hunchback did great wink

This episode was more of a preperation for the show down at the industrial complex in the next hour.

All in all - I liked it - I want MORE - NOW! big_smile

Re: Season 8

A slower episode, suggesting that the more action ones are very close.

Re: Season 8

Damn it. When did 24 become such a slow-paced show? Back in the day a season had 4-5 slow episodes, now it looks like it will have 4-5 action packed episodes.

Re: Season 8

I think it's better than "CTU being invaded by terrorists in a few minutes" like a few seasons ago. You saw Jack putting has man purse from one shoulder to the other ? That's like Chuck Norris saying: "where are my roundhouse kicking shoes ?"

Re: Season 8

8x11 - Boring first part (Dana's storyline sucks even more), awesome second part (especially Jack being VERY convincing big_smile).

Jack doesn't argue with you, he tries to stay calm without eating you alive.

Re: Season 8

It was nice to see some of the Jack Bauer that we know and love... But this Starbuck and SarahMichelleGellarsBoyToy crap is getting boring fast. And Starbuck should really get some Bauer on... stop being such a little bitch and grow a pair!

Re: Season 8

Tick, tick, tick, BONG!!!!

“24’s” time is almost up.

20th Century Fox TV and Fox appear ready to end the long-running hit after this season, the show’s eighth.

Studio and network execs declined comment -- but it’s believed that the final decision will be made in the next day or two. Move is not a huge surprise, but still reps the end of an era for Fox.

“24” helped usher in Fox’s ratings surge in the 2000s, as the franchise -- along with “American Idol” and “House,” among other series -- led the network’s adults 18-49 ratings crown.

But the cost of producing “24” has continued to increase, while ratings have dipped. A one-time critical darling, “24” has also received its share of knocks from reviewers this season.

The studio is said to be considering shopping “24” to other nets -- but given the thriller’s age and price tag, it’s believed that the interest from other outlets will be limited.

But even as bell tolls for “24,” the franchise is far from over. Sutherland and the “24” team have been keen on turning the show into a movie property, and have made major strides in recent months toward making that long-term goal a reality.

Re: Season 8

24 is so amazing, a regular pistol is better than a assault rifle, not to mention that SWAT has a relfex of a fresh Escargot.

Starbucks plot: *headesk* Such a good actress in such a bad character

Though the ending: marvelous. I was like "WTF?!".
