1. Sigh. Tony was obviously the best, but what I love about that aspect
Edited on Fri Dec-09-05 01:43 PM by BlueIris
of "24"--the "Director's Chair," that is, is that each of the characters had his or her own strengths there. So many were excellent in their own way that I actually can't choose a number two. Mason, Alberta and Chappelle tie for that spot, I guess. The only director I thought was flat-out unacceptable was actually Jack. As he put it in the 8-9 am hour of Day One, "I don't care about protocol." Marginally acceptable for a field agent, not okay for someone who was supposed to be in command of an entire CTU that was often in crisis. (I actually despise the Jack Bauer character, though, so maybe I'm a little biased there.) I mean, Driscoll sucked pretty badly, but at least she cared about minimizing the damage to civilians that fighting terrorism can cause, and you know, other things that procedural protocols are supposed to be upheld for. Jack? Not so much. Tony was the only director who did his job in the right way.

2. Can't believe no one else posted in this thread. In OUR Lounge.
You guys, this is one of the most Left series ever! Didn't anyone here watch it?

3. Are you watching the same "24"???
I used to really enjoy it, until last season when the show seemed to take a hard right turn.
