Jack Bauer

The 24 premiere was last night and it was a fun ride. It's gotten more ridiculous as in just 2 hours Jack got off a plane from being imprisoned in China for 20 months, showered, was turned over to a terrorist, was tortured (stabbed twice), escaped, rescued a terrorist from an air raid and foiled a subway bombing and changed clothes twice. Still, it was fun. Gizmodo is already on it with What Jack Bauer Needs in a Cellphone.

I agree, fun ride, ridiculous as ever. I liked Kal Penn as Evil Neighbor kid. He was good. Too bad they offed him. So on the "ridiculous knows no bounds" list, I had to wonder why a subway bomber would sit in the end of the last car. Dontcha think you'd be better off blowing up the FRONT of the subway? And Fayed managed to get out of the blast zone in time? Exactly what Lamborghini was he driving? Also, speaking of phones, did you catch the Sprint commercial (yeah, which one....). It was right after he uses the stolen car and Sprint phone with GPS to find Asad. Show cuts to commercial, and Sprint's tagline is something like, "Do you want to use your cell phone like a government agent does? Get Sprint's new GPS Phone!"

Nevertheless, it looks good in Hi-Def.

Actually Fayed left about 20 minutes before the blast, I could have run way out of the 1 mile radius in that time.
