DVD 24 - Season Two

Rating: - Best Drama on the Tube
I discovered 24 through the DVD. While I was skeptical at first, after finishing just disc one I was hooked. The formula works. It's literally the ticking time bomb. But what really carries the show is the script and the superb acting.

No one really chews the scenery but rather underplays the tension. President Palmer is the lynch pin of the cast and the plot.

While at times Bauer's daughter Kim seems to go from the frying pan into the fire, it does make you want to scream at the screen and shout, "Don't go in there, Kim." But the other subplots are skillfully written and stitched together nicely.

The character of George Mason makes the biggest character arc and probably should have received at least an Emmy nod for his role.

I only wish more television was of this caliber.

Rating: - 24 Tips: The Best Way to watch this Fantasy Series.
This Series is pure FANTASY. In order to watch it, you have to actively suspend your disbelief. If you can't, you will not be able to watch it. Now, Keifer Sutherland is a superb actor. He plays Super Man Jack Bauer...an indestructible SuperHero with unlimited Super Powers: never gets hurt, travels at the speed of light, can hit any target with a pistol, is the most intelligent person ever created... etc. Only Jack Bauer, singlehandedly, can save the World! All the Villains are intensely Evil. If you like watching Bad Guys..specifically, Terrorist Moslems getting killed you will love this Series.. and that is a big plus. The Villains also has Superhero Powers and intelligence..however I guarantee you will get sick of Nena Myers popping up again and again and pray that she gets killed... The actress who plays Agent Michelle Gessler is the worse Actress that has ever appeared in the history of TV. She makes all these weird faces in an attempt to portay seriousness... it just makes her look mentally deranged. The actor who plays Tony Almeda is almost as Bad. They both reappear in Season 4, at about the same time...I am sure you will be disgusted with these two. After watching Four Seasons, I recommend you watch each Season as fast as you can. Otherwise, any person with average intelligence will lose interest...if you have time to think about the Plot you wil realize that "24" is really just a TV Comic Book: Superhero against SuperVillain... it is Fantasy with a big dose of Violence...and that's what the viewing public seems to want.

I haven't seen all of it yet but so far so good.
The beginning of the season is good and suggests things are going to get increasingly interesting.
Thanks Amazon!

Rating: - Explosive!!!
The fun continues with season Two of "24." Full of unexpected surprises that keep your attention. Much easier to view than when interrupted by commercials. Jack Bauer's character and the whole CTU group make for riveting watching as they carry forward the "24" brand of TV action. You'll be blown away.
