Bryan hunny didn't i tell you that 24 was the best series ever how addicted are you? How cool is Jack Bauer?:wub: I could tell you what happens in series one but that would spoil it for you just sit back forget about anything else and loose yourself in 24 as you are in for one hell of a rollercoster ride before the end but i will promise you will not be disapointed. if you think series 1 is addictive wait until you get to season 2 you will be in therapy with me :rotfl:

Make sure you get sky installed before january as Jack will be back :D

The addictive thing about 24 is just when you think you've worked out what is going on the something else happens and throws your ideas up in the air. All i will say is that expect the unexpected and just sit back and enjoy the ride because you won't be able to guess the outcome until the last 10 mins.

If you want to know any spoilers go to www.fox.com/24 they have an hour by hour recap of the last 4 seasons. but for your own sanity don't read them as you only become more addicted.

I could tell you how terri dies but then i would have to kill you :D I think i will just sit back and let you be tortured by excitement and frustration at having no control of you emotions when the clock ticks to the hour and you scream NOOOOO!!! at the telly.

:rotfl: sorry byran i'm wicked i know but now you know how i feel once your addicted you can't stop it :D

I have the box sets for series 3 and 4. I watched series 2 on BBC3, but I only startedwatching about 2/3 of the way through series 1. My hubbie watched the whole thing, but I was ill for nearly a year and spent a lot of time in bed and missed it, drat!

Fantastic series, but I like Tony, Chloe has dibs on Jack Baur, lol

I have been addicted since season 1 and have all 4 seasons on dvd. Chloe has got it so bad for jack especally in season 4. There are promo pictures out for season 5 and under Chloe's profile it says that she is jack's closest ally in CTU. I would love to see chloe out in the field with a gun she and jack would seriously KICK ASS!!! :D

how many series does nina last for as i really like nina

Chloe O'brien
18-11-2005, 19:47
She is in until season 3 now don't ask anymore questions :D

Bryan
18-11-2005, 20:52
She is in until season 3 now don't ask anymore questions :D

great news! at least thats another 48 hours+ of nina on the show!

ive just had a thought as to how teri dies, amybe shes a badguy, who hates jack for leaving on her... so she gets vengance by working for the baddies and jack has to shoot her

Chloe O'brien
18-11-2005, 21:19
bryan i have warned you i aint telling you nothing now if you don't behave yourself and stop harrassing me i will get you banned :rotfl: :moonie: I luv it you're addicted Chloe appears in season 3 she's amazing

Bryan
20-11-2005, 11:17

Bryan
20-11-2005, 11:29

I told you not to look at the spoilers you little s**t :readtheru :moonie: as for you questions about season 1

1 Nina was working for victor drazen (Dennis hopper) and they planned to kill david palmer.
2 Teri overheard nina talking about making her escape from CTU as her cover was exposed and she shot teri who was pregnant to jack
3 Season two picks up 3 months after season 1 and jack has to save america from a nuke bomb

Now stay away from the spoilers and just watch if you thought season 1 was fab wait until you see 2 & 3 :D :D

well i dont get who she was getting orders from at the end, as it was someone german.... nothing to do with the russian drazens, and what else i dont get is nina said someone will be in soon and teri was alive then, nina left and jack goes in and teris dead?

Bryan
27-11-2005, 11:11
oh my CTU has been bombed! im finally getting into season 2!

Bryan
03-01-2006, 11:22

alex jumped! sheree was stabbed! kim shot dead that dude! :eek:

and i just loved the final showdown at the stadium! but oh my what about david!?

does he survive, and does season 3 pick up from then...or is there a big gap again?

Chloe O'brien
06-01-2006, 22:14
i'm sure that season 3 picks up about 18 months after season 2 david is still the president but that is all i am saying. just get watching you only have 30 days until season 5 Whoooa xxxx

Bryan

chicken s**t you just can't handle the addiction you big whoose xxx

Chloe O'brien
06-01-2006, 22:32
you have got to watch season 3 bb i'm in it and it is ten times better than season 2 aapart from a ctu agent named chase who is jack's sidekick and it's trying to be so cool like jack but will never be.

Bryan

Bryan

Kath you won over Ems i am watching my 24 boxsets before CSI!

now onto series 3, and so far it is looking good with Kyle not knowing he is actually transporting the virus, and the mole inside CTU...they really need to start vetting their workers, first Nina now this bloke...

Chloe O'brien
18-02-2006, 17:52
ooh bryan you are a brave boy S3 is s**t hot lots of twists and nina is back. tell me when you get to 7am after you have watched the scene with Jack and Ryan Chappell. i'm not telling you anything but it has to be the best scene in all of 24 pure jaw-dropping stuff. and of course in S3 we are introudced to the wackiest and best computer geek going "Chloe O'brien" :cheer:

Bryan
19-02-2006, 10:49
:eek: tony almeda has been shot in the neck at the mall! never saw that one coming! good stuff so far for season 3, a lot better than the last season which was a total turn off!

Chloe O'brien
19-02-2006, 14:44
i hate chase in this series he is so trying to be like jack season 3 is far more exciting than season 2

Bryan
19-02-2006, 14:54
you really dont like chase do you!? :lol:

im guessing he gets killed and kim is distaught and jack was right all along "you cant have relationships in this job"

Chloe O'brien
19-02-2006, 23:16
chase is a tit unfortunatly he does not get killed but he should have but the ending is fab

Bryan
26-02-2006, 10:49

I cant believe that Jack has shot dead Ryan!? And the hotel drama is getting better and better! :clap: :thumbsup:

Chloe O'brien
10-04-2006, 17:20
That scene with jack and ryan has to be one of the best ever in all of 24. I was gob smacked when i first saw it. The ending is amazing

Bryan
11-04-2006, 13:59
Ive spent the entire morning watching the remainder of the season, i kept saying this is the last one...but its so good i couldnt stop! :eek: :eek: :eek:

it was superb! my mom was glued in the action scene when they captured saunders... and she HATES action shows/films!

SUPERB!!!! cant wait to watch series 4 now...

Chloe O'brien
11-04-2006, 16:40
how stomach curning was the scene when jack had to cut off chase arm(urrrgh) and what about jack crying at the end how sad was that. Get a move on with s4 i'm half way through s5 now

Bryan
13-04-2006, 10:49
I officially hate Erin Driscoll and the LA police department! Why dont they sod off and let Jack and Clo kick some serious butt! I hate these parts in shows when everything goes wrong for the protagonist! Its so frustrating!!! :angry:

Em

it certainly has a way of keeping you gripped!

what starts as you watching 1 hour...you end up watching 8!

dont bother with season 2 it is rubbish!

Ems I have been addicted to 24 since day 1 each hour is an hour of 1 day and it always ends with a cliff hanger so you cant help but watch the next episode, you cant help but get caught up in the action and excitement. I disagree with bryan that S2 is rubbish its not but it is the weakest of all 4 series

have patients bryan you think that a little things as the whole of the LA police department after you is going to stop jack think again its early days. This is when we see chloe's loyalty to jack.

Ok, after all the hype Ive bought the first 4 seasons. wil let you know when i start to watch and keep you updated!

15-06-2006, 10:46
You'd better get your skates on and start watching ems as there is only a few weeks before day 5 is released on DVD. It usually get released around early August. How hot looking is jack in a suit :wub:

Sky One are repeating season 5 from Monday 19th June @1.50am. As far as I can make out 2 episodes will be shown each night until final hour/s so I'm setting my vcr. Does anyone know if Sky are showing the last 2 hours as a double bill like it was in the US? Sorry if I'm repeating stuff already posted here. Also shop around for the 24 boxsets the prices charged can vary wildly!

I am surprised that skyone are repeating S5 so soon as it is still being shown on a Sunday night, the series doesn't finish for another 4 weeks, but hey you never get tired of watching 24
