| 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful  Intense!, By Devin Michael Perry (LAKE JACKSON, TEXAS, US) - See all my reviews This review is from: 24 Season 1 (Amazon Instant Video) Already finished the first season, and watching the second one now! I like how the the real-time events all come together in each episode. The action is incredible! 2 of 3 people found the following review helpful See what the fuss was all about, By apostles03 (USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: 24 Season 1 (Amazon Instant Video) Like a lot of people, I didn't get into 24 until Season 4. I waited until January 2011, when the next season would have started, to begin watching the first season. It's making me miss Jack bauer less, watching him once a week looking so....refreshed ( I won't say "young"), not playing by the rules, taking out the bad guys. Plot twists abound in this highly original series. I am enjoying it immensely.  Hate the clock, By This review is from: 24 Season 1 (Amazon Instant Video) The content and acting performances are excellent. The clock every five minutes drives me crazy - use fast forward ! |

| 20 of 20 people found the following review helpful Riveting! The Terror is Contagious!, By This review is from: 24: Season Three (DVD) Thus reads the back of the boxed DVD set.Fox's primetime hit series =24= has peaked new heights in edge-of-your-seat storytelling with its third - and best - season. Commercials provide the only pause, the only letup, in this colossally suspenseful terror-trip. For those who would do so, there is no need to bash it for being less than perfect - nobody could expect absolute flawlessness from 980 minutes of television drama, no matter how refined. I will briefly mention the two foremost problems. (1) That so many events of such large and interrelated significance would take place, all within twenty-four hours, stretches probability way beyond the breaking point. (2) I have had the privilege of working occasionally with a substantial number of Spanish speakers; consequently, I can say that, for the show, the Mexicans should have spoken to and among each other always in Spanish, very nearly never in English (a problem with the Czecks in the first season as well)...

YES there are great moments and cliffhangers, and YES some characters finally came out swinging (Michelle esp.), but as I watched, I kept asking myself, "would the CTU of Season One ever allow this to happen?" What I LOVED about the first season was how smart and tightly wound the team was. The least little misstep in protocol was vehemently scrutinized by everyone. There was a sense that this was the best of the best...a top notch agency with brilliant minds and strategists at every turn.Now, we have Kim Bauer working at CTU? WTF? I mean, a few years ago she was a pouty teenaged brat partying with losers. And now she's working the computer system like a pro? Sitting in on most of the important meetings and even field ops? Since when did inter-office sniping become the norm at CTU? Someone gives an order, and the answer is, "look...I'm working as fast as I can", or "you yelling... Read more 13 of 14 people found the following review helpful Best 24, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: 24: Season 3 (Slim Packaging) (DVD) Season 3 of 24 focuses on a threat of a virus being released into the city of Los Angeles as well as other major population centers. As usual, Jack Bauer is on the scene to stop the bad guys. Because so much of the entertainment value of the show comes from the twists and turns of the plot, I won't reveal many of the specifics but there two major story arcs that should be familiar to those who have watched the first two seasons. First, there is Jack and the other CTU agents who are racing against time to stop the terrorists from releasing the virus. Then there is President David Palmer and his administration that are fighting various potential scandals at the same time they deal with the virus.The first thing that a viewer notices about this season is that the pace starts off a bit more slowly. It's not dull by any means, but it is definitely less frenetic out of the starting gate. The good part of this is that the writers have also eliminated the flaws that were evident... Read more |

| 50 of 55 people found the following review helpful When the country he fought for turned their back on him..., By Ryan Matthews "montvil" (Clifton, NJ, USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: 24: The Complete Eighth Season (DVD) I may be in the few when I say this, but I don't think this show ever qualified as "past its prime." It seems like a lot of the reviews coming out from papers, magazines, even fans revolved around the fact that the show ended on a good note, HOWEVER --note the asterisk-- (*it's not what it once was). Yes, there were recurring themes. Yes, we've gone through the whole nuclear weapons story before. Yes, some things were more predictable than they used to be. But I, for one, loved watching Jack Bauer and Chloe O'Brian evolve. I loved watching Charles Logan try and wiggle his way back into the good graces of Americans. I loved watching where the shattered life of Tony Almeida led him in Season 7. I think, reasonably so, a lot of people considered the shark jumped after Season 6. I did, too. But I continued watching, and I thought Seasons 7 and 8 were two of the strongest the 24 crew put together.**Spoilers Below** Since I can't rate the product yet, the five stars is for... Read more 140 of 164 people found the following review helpful A fitting end, By Leopold Stotch "Butters" (Colorado) - See all my reviews This review is from: 24: The Complete Eighth Season (DVD) I came into this season expecting it to be the last. Fox had long maligned the fact that '24' was very expensive to make. They also cited lagging ratings (mostly due to the lackluster season 6 leaving a bad taste in viewers mouths and the WGA strike making the show almost irrelevant.) as a reason to ax the show. And besides, the concept was becoming a bit outdated. Even the tenor of season 8, with the world standing on the brink of an historic peace agreement, signified that 24 was coming full circle. The idea that peace could exist in a world of espionage and paranoia such as the one 24 dwelled in, was a big step toward a brave new world. The kind of thing you see when a show wants to go out with a bang. I was ready for it to end and am sad to see it go. The Machiavellian exploits of Jack Bauer have been must see television from Day One (November 6,2001) in my household. On Tuesdays at 9pm (Seasons 1-3) and Mondays at 9pm (Seasons 4-8), no one was allowed to bother me. I loved this... Read more 13 of 13 people found the following review helpful Tick Tock, Mr. Bauer. You're Running Out of Time, By This review is from: 24: The Complete Eighth Season (DVD) A quick note: the following review contains only minor spoilers concerning returning characters and storylines and does not disclose any major revelations.Previously on 24: For 7 seasons the thriller genre was redefined and the bar for drama and suspense was raised to a new high, and not just for television. The brilliant, subversive and fearless writing staff, the deep cast of memorable characters, the always atmospheric scores of Sean Callery, and the inventive real-time format made for the greatest thrill ride in television history. 24 was not always flawless, in fact, there were moments that threatened to destroy its legacy (see season 6 for an example), but for the most part, 24 ranged from great to masterful (see season 5). So naturally, us fans, who already had ridiculously high standards for our beloved series expected pure, unrelenting excellence from its 8th and final season...
