24 Season 8: Live Thread (NEW)

FOX ^ | 2-15-10 | GRRRRR

[twin2]

Well you will always remember 24 with that rabbit tail.

[mylife]

The varmit is apparently hungry

[netmilsmom]

>>I heard the ending was nice.<<

She hated it because it was like it was all a dream.

She tried to get me to watch it, lent me the DVDs and everything but it was a soap opera and I was spoiled by 24.

[mylife]

I havent seen so I will reserve judgment.

[Gene Eric]

>> He just disappears again.

bttt

[AGreatPer]

Thinking. Jack is shot up. He needs a hospital.
But he has to get out of town and as far away as possible.
I have no clue what I would do.

[mylife]

Maybe Argentina?

I’d get off the grid, But he will stick out in a foreign land, so he has to be a simple tourist

[Exit148]

LOL! It is not as to he can go to the airport, limping and bleeding, no luggage, and probably not carrying a passport — and just buy a ticket and get on a plane!

[Liberty Valance]

Can't wait for the movie with Jack & Chloe in Europe:

***************** 24 /greenwich time!*******************

[GRRRRR]

Can you ‘EAR me now???

Ha hahahahahah

[defconw]

GROAN! :)

[bigbob]

Wish I’d known about the live thread, but just as well since I only got into 24 for day 7 and 8 due to previous travel commitments, etc. So a lot of quality DVD time lies ahead ;-)

Admire the actors and writers for a very compelling program that reflects the reality of real life but focused on good vs. evil rather than partisanship. Ending as it did with the President having to admit her failures in humility was appropriate for these times, I think.

[mylife]

24 zulu time

[GRRRRR]

Well Freeper FRiends...that's it. Eight seasons of "24" plus a Movie I hope...it has been my honor to have PINGED you all for this last season.

Edgar lives!

[LUV W]

It’s been a great run. Thanks for the pings...and wish I could have been here more often. Sometimes the action just kept me from the computer.

As long as Jack lives, the world is a safe place!

[defconw]

Thanks for the thread, it was fun. I’ll miss it.

[shove_it]

Thank you for your service!

[cleveland gop]

Just wow!
No way I was going to try to watch and post tonight, I would have missed too much.

So where are we now? Like many others mentioned tonight, Gregory Itzin(Logan) should win at least 1 Emmy for his performance this season. And remember, he didn’t show until what, hour 10? And we know there will be a movie with the following as the backdrop....

President Taylor’s resignation and impending legal issues....
President Logan’s health.....
President Zubov’s role in the conspiracy and do they present a problem for Jack or Kim....
The fact that only 3 people at CTU are fully aware or the conspiracy(Cole, Chloe and Arlo).....
And finally Jack running from the authorities to escape as Taylor insists he does.....

Should be a kick ass movie!!

Thanks to everyone who made this thread, and the 4 years I was on it a freaking blast!! snif snif, It’s all over. Well until the movie comes out!

[GRRRRR]

Hey!! It’s the HAWKS vs. FLYERS!! Should be a superior Stanley Playoff!

[etabeta]

thank you very much for hosting this thread. Read all the comments after every episode and it was a hoot.
You guys rock.
Oops...I was about to add “see you next season”....

[Timeout]

Ooooo, I like the thought of Jack & Chloe in Paris! But I think it’s more likely he’ll be in Madame Pompador’s country. She’s the only one he can turn to.

But then, 24 never felt it had to explain to us how Jack disappears himself. He just shows up in the next country.

[evad]

Reservoir Dog will pick him up.

He's on his way to the safe house as we speak :)

[lara]

Why doesn’t Taylor just pardon Jack before she retires? At least that way he’d only be fighting the Russians in the upcoming movie.

[altura]

I’m just joining in after watching the show on tivo after a meeting. Hubby actually watched with me. He’s a closet fan. Won’t admit he likes it but he loved this episode.

Very sweet intro by Jack, bittersweet.

[sockmonkey]

Yes, “Time to Shut it Down”..sniff.. Thank you GRRRRRR for the pings and good company.

[flowergirl]

i think jack will go to the man that was helping him, you the special forces guy

[altura]

The final episode was fantastic.

[altura]

DP was actually worried about Jack. Said something about he has no money, etc. I think Jack can manage quite nicely, thank you.

[Fudd Fan]

Thanks to you and everyone who loves this thread. It has been a pleasure to lurk and post. I didn’t discover “24” until season 5, so you all have helped fill in some necessary blanks for me, as well as enhance my viewing experience. I don’t watch that much prime time network tv so this was quite a commitment for me. It was much more enjoyable with this thread.

[Jmouse007]

Thanks to Mr. Sutherland and everyone involved in creating 24. It was good to see people of honor and integrety who LOVE America portrayed on TV for a change.

As for this season... one of the best 24 hour "days" ever.

To everyone involved with 24 and to everyone who faithfully met here on line to enjoy the show together and to make snarkey, funny and sometimes serious comments...

THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES, now "Shut it down" :O)

[AGreatPer]

Thanks for the pings GR. I got in late during the last few years but enjoyed when YOU finally got me to watch.
Thank you.

[AGreatPer]

I'm still worried about Jack tonight, being wounded, with no money and no ID for the airport.

Maybe he found his way to Exit 148 in NJ and hooked up with the Sopranos and yuns guys. If so, keep him safe my friend for the movie.

ps: We gotta get him some Cloe nook in the movie.

[Timeout]

Ya know, we had a two-hour finale and I don’t think Jack killed a single person tonight.

[NautiNurse]

It is not as to he can go to the airport, limping and bleeding, no luggage, and probably not carrying a passport — and just buy a ticket and get on a plane!

Jack's headed to Canada, where he'll have to wait six months to get his wounds patched up.

[Christian4Bush]

Thanks G...to quote Jack Bauer at the end of S4 when he was ‘dead’: “It’s been an honor.”

P.S. how about this tweet from Annie Wersching:

“So last 2 hours of #24 take place between 2:00 and 4:00....pretty cool.”

[EDINVA]

“...we had a two-hour finale and I don’t think Jack killed a single person tonight.”

Excellent point! So, Chloe was the only other survivor of all the seasons, along with Jack. She has two co-conspirators now, as happened in an earlier season when Tony and Michel were in on the conspiracy of Jack’s escape.

[gopheraj]

I just realized that 24 ended (wahhhhhhhhh) on the 24th. Wonder if they planned it that way?

[Timeout]

Between 2 and 4 pm on the 24th.

Interesting. Almost looks like a plan!

[Christian4Bush]

Jaqck Kills!!!

He’s gonna go out with some good ones!

Now he has a backpack??

---

Merge Jack with the original Die Hard, and you get:

“Now I have a backpack. Ho. Ho. Ho.”

[Christian4Bush]

what’s with the affirmative action Dude?

let's keep obama out of this...

[Christian4Bush]

Suicide by Chloe!

That's funny!

[Christian4Bush]

Logan reminds Jason, “If I go down, we all go down together.”

TMI

[Niteflyr]

It is not as to he can go to the airport, limping and bleeding, no luggage, and probably not carrying a passport — and just buy a ticket and get on a plane!

Oh pish tosh! In TV land Jack can solve such a mundane problem with ease..:o)

[Niteflyr]

“Now I have a backpack. Ho. Ho. Ho.”

More room to carry all his toys...:o)

[Christian4Bush]

Pillar gets the ol mike tyson treatment!

What we won't see until the outtake reel...Pillar told Jack "Bite me." Bauer just complied...

[MediaMole]

Poor Milton. Hope he finds his Red Swingline Stapler in the great hereafter.

[Christian4Bush]

They are going after him, but he has a head start.

"Jack, you do realize, after we get off the phone, for all intents and purposes...Jack Bauer is dead." (S4 finale)

[Christian4Bush]

That storyline stank. By now, so does he...

[Christian4Bush]

And here it is...

[Christian4Bush]

Ok, I cheated to get it...but...
