24.... what can i say, they got me, and yes I know, where have i been... Honestly we have no time for television, but when you're addicted, you must have it, you find a way, you make time and thanks to Netflix we are able to watch at 1am... oh and you can't watch one, one is just not enough, kinda like Pringles. After the first season I swore to myself that I was done, finished and going to get help... Well my self-control is lame and Dave talked me into season two... we're half way through (so please don't give anything away!!) But after this, I'm walking away, and I mean it...
The good thing is, it is inspiring me to write some new material... could be a hit. This ones for you Jack Bauer:
P.S. Don't start watching... it's a trap.
P.S.S. No I do not and will not watch LOST
P.S.S.S. I met Keifer Sutherland one time... funny story
This is epic stuff. I hope I can download this on itunes some day.
ReplyDeleteBrooke, just between you and I, Season 2 will not be the end, nor will 3, 4...you get the picture. Their power is much stronger than you or I can handle. So, just give in, like Jack would have you do, and just watch them all. Take your time! Netflix gives you all the time in the world.
ReplyDeleteNext, not sure if you're bitter towards LOST or just not going to go down that path for fear it will turn into a 24 thing... but I can tell you right now that LOST might be even worse...as far as getting sucked in and having to watch 4 episodes in a row.
Ok, there, I've said it.
My wife and I did the same thing with 24. Totally worth sticking with. The other one to get on DVD and watch several episodes in a row is the first few seasons of ER. Don't waste time or energy on the mess that is Lost.
ReplyDeleteI think you may find that he does get caught and gets shot in later seasons. :-)
ReplyDeleteI vote for LOST! It's great! A must watch for everybody!
ReplyDelete24 is a thrill ride you'll enjoy though I used to watch it before going to bed and found that it got me so worked up, I had trouble falling asleep. You're better off stopping after Season 7 though because this past season - number 8 - was not very good. "Lost" though is completely brilliant and full of redemptive stories, especially Season 1 so I highly recommend that when you have time some day.
ReplyDeleteBrooke- After you finish 24, check out "Firefly"- I introduced my kids to it this weekend and they loved it- funny, deeply written characters, created by Joss Whedon. It was cancelled towards the end of it's first (only) season, so there's only 14 episodes, but then they made a feature film called "Serenity" to tie things up. You'll be happily hooked!
ReplyDeleteI just watched this and I'm positive my day is going to be great now...thanks!
ReplyDeleteYou know, I totally think a funny song about Jack Bauer could actually do well. It does get to the point where the viewer starts to think of him as immortal, and you're only really worried about the people around him.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, glad you're enjoying it Brooke -- and thanks for brightening everybody's day!
I love the little ditty, but I'm more in love with your hair!! I'd like that haircut please! :D
ReplyDeletelove the song Brookie. If you think you are obsessed with 24, don't even get started with Prison Break. I dream of breaking out of prison with the guys nightly(maybe a sign of obsession?) I don't know...
ReplyDeleteooh, u're so funny! haha
ReplyDeleteI love 24! It's the best show ever!!!!
ReplyDeleteLOST is/was the best show on TV. I am still mourning its end. But if you have the time to waste, start watching the first season.
ReplyDeleteLOST is very addicting, but so worth it! Give it a try, you won't be disappointed, maybe confused, but never disappointed!
ReplyDeleteI said the exact same thing but trust me, it's worth it!!! My boyfriend kept talking me into the next season. It's the only series besides idol I've watched. I have to remind myself to breath but they are incredible... You have to watch all of them. They don't get REALLY good until 4 or 5... First few seasons are way too realistic which is what bothered me haha.... I like comedies!!
ReplyDeletei watched the first 4 seasons and just got way too busy to keep up anymore! but considering i got pretty far, i would love to finish the series completely someday. jack bauer is the MAN! :)
ReplyDeleteI only saw the first episode and then stopped. *hides*
ReplyDeleteBut then there's Chuck, my golly I'm addicted. XD
You will end up watching the show until the end. After the last season you will go see the movie they are making as well. If you stop after season 2 I will be impressed! :)
ReplyDeletegot totally hooked on Dexter..a bad scene...staring at the TV for days.
