First, I think it's appropriate that we celebrate this blog's 100th post with an article about 24, the greatest show about the greatest man this earth has ever created. Second, I apologize for it coming on Wednesday, as I was not able to watch this week's episode until last night. This week, we'll go back to our old character number key and see how our friends in terrorist fighting are faring:
1) Arlo Glass - Really wasn't in last night's episode, except for a few moments where he helped Chloe. Negligible impact.
2) Dana Walsh - Still alive, which is terrible.
3) Brian Hastings - Finally grew some testicles and stood up to Rob Weiss, telling him he was dropping the charges against Renee and telling Rob to leave him alone. Maybe the ghost of Bill Buchanan has infiltrated him a bit, and now he's beginning to realize what it takes to get the job done. Once again, RIP Bill. We all miss you.
4) Chloe O'Brian - Disarmed the bomb on the suicide bomber OVER THE INTERNET. Name someone else who can do that!??!? Answer: NO ONE. Chloe is a gem. One of a kind. A real woman. Morris is one lucky dude.
5) Cole Ortiz - Should have killed Dana and put her in the river along with her scumbag friends. She's not worth it Cole. Finish her and move on!
6) Renee Walker - Should feel like one lucky broad, seeing as after all of her emotional nonsense she gets Jack after this. Those big bright eyes of hers will be getting even bigger when he's inside of her, believe you me!
7) Jack Bauer - The man is a living, breathing monument to how awesome man can be. Using Farhad's dead body as a decoy to draw out the terrorists? Genius! I swear this man could cure cancer, he just hasn't had time yet.
8) Omar Hassan - Still paranoid. Still has a killer accent. Still needs a haircut.
9) President Taylor - Like CTU Chief Hastings, she seems to be growing a pair of nuts as well. Loved the move where she threatened to attack Hassan's country if he didn't give her the files she needed and the atomic bomb went off in NYC. That's the kind of no-nonsense rule we need to save lives.
10) Rob Weiss - Getting a little pushy. Can't shake the feeling that he has some sort of ulterior motive that will be revealed a couple weeks from now. Looks phenomenal in a suit, however.
Other thoughts on tonight's episode not involving our main characters:
- Farhad Hassan, aside from being a traitor to his brother, is also a complete dumbass. Now he's dead. That's what you get sucka. He only needed to stay where he was for 3 more seconds, but noooooo, he had to get up in a panic, which resulted in him getting shot and being useless to Jack. Piss poor.
- I enjoyed that Fox 5's Ernie Anastos was the one breaking the news that Farhad Hassan was "still alive" to the American public at 1:30 in the morning. There's no way Ernie is pulling an all-night shift like that in real life. If anything, he's off being all Ron Burgundy at that hour.
- I really thought that CTU Agent Owen was gonna get everyone killed because he was so nervous, but alas, he didn't! Though he was sweating more than an obese man after 2 pushups, he managed to get the terrorist to show the bomb to Chloe on the security camera so she could disarm it. Well done sir. And he didn't die - a bonus for sure.
- Can't say I enjoyed the fact that they picked the terrorist with the most creepy child-rapist eyes to play the suicide bomber. Whenever he tried to look menacing I wanted to hide in a corner with my blankie, sucking my thumb and hoping the evil terrorist didn't touch me in my special place.

Normally there is a party when people celebrate the 100th of anything and I am not following what the picture of you laughing at the deceased woman has to do with anything
ReplyDeleteI like that I don't have to watch 24 anymore because of this blog.
