I forgot about this threads existence and you can thank 24: Legacy for that. What started off great and veered into tedium just went off the rails as it slogged its way to the end. This season absolutely SUCKED in a BIG way. To say that I didn't care for any of the characters is an understatement. But with 24, you could always count on exciting, pulse-pounding action set pieces to carry you across the finish line for each episode. Nope. Not only was the writing horrible and the plot stupid, but it was beyond boring. Waaaaaaay too many 'sitting around and talking' scenes that defied logic given the nature of what was at stake and how much time they had left to fix sh*t. So yeah, unless they can somehow convince Kiefer Sutherland to come back as Jack Bauer, they need to bury this series once and for all. If anything, this season just proved that it can't survive without Sutherland. I give this season an generous 2 Stars out of 5. The first two episodes keeps this from getting a 1 Star.
