24 - Any fans out there?

[mac1]

Does anyone here follow 24? All the reviewers are being heavily critical of series 2, I have watched up to 2x06 and it is amazing. Anyone who saw the first series and has doubts about the second should watch it, so far it is as good if not better. Now I better shut up before I spoil any plot points on anyone.

Never watched "24", but I remember after "Lost Boys" keeping an eye out for anything with Kiefer Sutherland in. Only film I remember from that is one called "Promised Land", though.

I have a funny feeling that in a couple of years, maybe, I'll end up watching an episode of "24" and then chasing down all the other episodes.

I assume being the system administrator you have a high spped connection of some description, If so download episode 1x01 from Kazaa, after watching it (and a few more perhaps), I am sure you will be hooked.

sorry, I should also add that you absolutely must see it from the start to appreciate it, it is perhaps the only TV show I can think of where you absolutely need to see every episode in order without exception, download it and I'm sure you will understand why.

I'm afraid I only have a 56k . I'll have to wait till I move into a BT line area before I go for broadband - I'm in Hull, which is allowed to be monopolised by a company which allows it's servers to be continually overloaded. Boo!

As for 24 - I'm sure I'm going to keep an eye open for it. Thanks for the recommendation.

i know your not online now, but on the offchance that you read this in the next few minutes the 1st episode of 24 is on BBC Choice now, followed by the 2nd Episode. It is possible that they are going to play them all in order over the next few weeks on BBC Choice. IF so, you know what needs doing.

Alas, I do not have either digital or satellite. Not yet.

Have you been following series 2 - its just started on BBC. Might be hard to follow without series 1 though!!

[brian]

I nearly did watch the first series two episode - I saw it announced for BBC2, then the ad stated you could turn over after to BBC3 to watch part 2. My reading was that only one episode would be on BBC2, with the rest being on BBC3. I've since been told that's wrong, so I may just hire the DVD and try to catch up.

[mac1]

Please tell me someone is watching it. I have now seen up to episode 2x15, the three week wait for episode 2x16 is killing me. 2x15 had just about the biggest cliffhanger ever. I won't spoil anything for anyone, thats if anyone is even following it. Surely there must be someone. If not just start watching on Sunday nights, don't worry about catching up (although that would be better), you cannot afford to miss series 2, so far it has been absolutely incredible. And the BBC is only up to about episode 2x04. Those of you in the UK have practically the entire series ahead of you, you can't afford to miss it.

I'm going to start another site promo soon, so hopefully we'll get some more people active who can make comment.

Myself - hardly watch TV now, especially since I went online. ;D

I didn't watch a single episode of 24 when it aired but I purchased the DVD set when it was released. While I was quit thrilled with it at first, to me it became hard for me to continue to believe particular occurances...at certain times I would say to myself "You have to be kidding me". I know that it details the life of a counter-terrorism agent so of course what happens is a lot more extreme then the average Joe's life but still, certain parts aggravated me. I don't want to detail anything specific because I don't want to give anything away

I haven't followed the 2nd season on TV because I started watching the 1st on DVD around when the 2nd started ( I believe )...when the 2nd is released on DVD, I'm pretty sure I'll pick it up.
