I thought this was a really good episode. Jack is a moron for letting himself get locked in that bunker. It's about time they got rid of Mikey Walsh...what a pain in the ass. Logan is getting pretty funny...whoever that actor is - he's doing a great job.

the face Novick made to Logan when he says "pray with me Mike" was priceless.

Last night's episode was very good. I'm not fond off Jack's action in this season because it seems like it's been done before but all the other stuff is great. The President, Novick, Mrs. Logan, and CTU make this season one of the best so far.

i actually found myself LIKING audrey. and that doesn't happen, ever. i'm a big fan of curtis, though, so i am verrrrry glad that he grew a pair and stood up to Rudy. did anything ever come of him losing his keycard? i know i missed an episode a few weeks back for a billy joel concert but still... i'm surprised that hasn't come up yet.
i can't wait for tony. he is gonna be piiiiiiiiiissed.

I gotta admit...I also feel Audrey's character has improved. It also seems like she's slightly better looking this year....

nothing about his missing keycard has been brought up at CTU. he did call his sister and ask her to return it but the boyfriend wouldn't give it back. he said they could get more for it. so i'm thinking something might happen with that down the line.

and yes, tony is going to rock when he gets out.
i think the boyfriend was paid off by one of the baddies to mug Samwise/Rudy and pick up that card and the shiznit has yet to hit the fan on that front.

I'll still keep reading the 24 threads, though, just for fascination's sake at how people think it's still good. Some of the comments I've read thus far are baffling. Bill Simmons sums up my love/hate (mainly hate) relationship nicely:
Every good TV show is entitled to an off year from time to time. Fine. But there've been some inexcusable mistakes in this current season, starting with the teenager trailing Jack to the helicopter (really, a 16-year-old kid would be able to follow the great Jack Bauer without him noticing?) … That same kid just randomly noticing that terrorists were emptying out of a van at LAX and urging his mom to stop the car so he could warn Jack (come on) … President Palmer being assassinated in the morning, then Fox News dropping that as its lead story within four hours to concentrate on the riveting U.S.-Russia treaty (really, an assassination wouldn't carry the day?) … The current president acting so spineless and wishy-washy, it's simply impossible to believe he could have risen to any position above assistant manager at Carl's Jr. … Jack ending up with cracked ribs in one of the earlier episodes, then never mentioning them again … Sean Astin's completely improbable stint as the head of CTU (the worst casting job they ever did) … Jack returning from the dead and everyone at CTU acting like he just came back from a vacation (and where the hell are the Chinese, by the way?) … And the president's chief of staff getting involved in a confusing "We have to release nerve gas to terrorists so patriotism will improve or something" plot that ended up with him pulling a Vince Foster.
Everything has just seemed too far-fetched -- and this was the same show that once had Jack's daughter nearly mauled by a cougar, so that's saying something. Plus, aren't they just repeating stuff by now? How many times can CTU have a mole? How many times can somebody at CTU order Jack to come back to the office, followed by him knocking a co-worker unconscious and going out on his own? Five? Ten? Fifteen? And why aren't they sticking to the minute-by-minute approach anymore? For instance, last night Jack got tasered by the dude from "Robocop" and it was like they fast-forwarded three minutes -- suddenly, Jack was waking up from being unconscious and Robocop (who looks like he went to Jerry Jones' plastic surgeon over the summer) was holding a gun on him. Have we just abandoned the real-time gimmick here?
(Note: All of that said, wild horses couldn't drag me away from the TV for the two-hour extravaganza next Monday. Now that's a great TV show -- even during a C-minus season, it's still mandatory viewing. Which reminds me: When I was in Houston, we walked right by Tony Almeida while he was tearing into a hot dog before the All-Star Game. First of all, he's about 5-foot-6 -- he makes Kiefer Sutherland look like Stromile Swift. Second of all, I had to fight off the urge to scream in the Jack Bauer voice, "DROP THE HOT DOG, TONY! DROP THE HOT DOG! DROP IT RIGHT NOW! DO AS I SAY!" See, this is why the J-Bug needed to be in Houston -- he absolutely would have done the Jack Bauer voice and scared Tony into dropping the hot dog. Maybe I can work this into my next ESPN contract: "The J-Bug has to travel with me on every road trip.")
(END OF SPOILER ALERT.)
And yeah, I watched this week's episode. When the highlight of an episode is an overweight, pants-too-high RoboCop, there's something wrong.
