Anyone watch the new series of 24 on Network 2 on Tuesday night? If you missed it, its on Sky 1 tonight.
I really enjoyed the last series, and think it will be hard to beat, but there was serious potential in Tuesdays episode....lots of leeway for unexpected twists and sub-plots.
On a sad note, Elisha Cuthbert (Kim Bauer) didn't look half as hot as she did in series 2.:( :(

Bit hard to believe Kim Bauer as a computer expert in CTU, hot and all as she is she's also very annoying at times. Last series she couldn't walk 10 yards without bumping into some lunatic or getting herself into some ridiculously contrived scrape. If Fred West himself had offered to give her a room in his basement she wouldn't have thought twice about his motives.

The girl wasn't exactly the sharpest tool in the shed and now we're supposed to believe they'd hire her for such a critical position (Daddys influence or not). At least her part might not be so obviously tacked on in this series as it was in the last. Anyway, I think they might be pushing the whole concept just a little bit far this time, but I'll still watch it again next week all the same.

As far as I know the plat for this series is that Jack has 24 hours to live. You can see how they are bringing Elisha Cuthbert and her boyfriedn on the show forward to replace him.

Looks good. Last series was amazing. So many twists and turns.

I looked at whats happening next week, but I think I'm gonna wait for the episodes from now on...

Series 1 was the groundbreak.
Series 2 like a comedy but still good.
Dunno about potential for no. 3 yet...
