I only recently started watchine “24”.
It is fast paced and entertaining. It is also absurd, unrealistic, and a cartoon all at the same time. Anyone who actually believes that all the stuff that happens in one hour could actually happen in one hour is living in a fantasy.
I realize that but as you said, it is an entertaining program. What I find absud - among many things - is when they have non-CTU people inside the facility. No escort, no visitor badges, people walking wherever they want to walk. Working in a secure enviornment for years, I know that is extremely stupid and unrealistic. And as I read on FR from a much earlier thread concerning 24, just getting across town in minutes is absurd. I have never been to L.A., but if it is like any large metro city, I know you couldn’t do that.
