24: “You’re cursed, Jack.”
I’m warning you. Stay away. You’re cursed, Jack. Everything you touch, one way or another, ends up dead.
William Devane returned tonight and boy did he give ‘em Heller. I literally got chills when James Heller gave his little speech to Jack. Poor Jack. And poor Audrey. Though, I think I’d be in her state if I had “groin injections” too.
All in all this was one of the best episodes in 24’s worst season. If this plot would have started around hour six, this would have been a great season. But they spent the entire middle arc dealing with a terrorist plot storyline that no one could possibly care about.
Now that Lame Palmer is out of the way, the presidential storyline has picked up. I totally called the Vice President tapping Lisa, his hot blonde assistant When VP Daniels broke the news to Tom Lennox that he was sleeping with Lisa, I thought Tom was going to say, “Well sir, I’m sleeping with her too.”
Was the existence of Sandra Palmer was even necessary? Where is she? It seems like both Palmers may be gone for good. Personally, I’m glad.
There’s word today, as there is every season, that 24 will be reinvented in response to low ratings and angry fans. I’ll believe it when I see it.
