Twenty Four6 a
Morris Hits Hides The Bottle

There is something wierd about 24 this season. We have now seen up to 5pm (after kicking off Series Six at 7am) and I’m starting to get the distinct impression that I’ve seen it all before.  Jack is alternating between following the rules and going completely off piste, inside CTU there is much back-stabbing and people being vaguely ridiculous as the lie and cheat to their bosses while trying to save the world, the president is off letting any old Tom, Dick or Unabomber into the Whitehouse ops room, and the bad guys are all looking shifty, sporting anonymous “foreign” accents, and seemingly having access to their own private airports devoid of security in the middle of a nuclear fallout zone.  Business as usual then.  This series also has a lot of plot dedicated to its past like the re-appearance of the former president that I think will alienate any newer viewers that try and get involved.  Don’t get me wrong I still love it but I wish they’d something a little newer.

We *have* seen it all before. That’s the problem - one season too many.
