"24" was great the first couple of seasons, even with all the whispering that they seem to think is dramatic. It has jumped the shark big-time. The last season was so excruciatingly bad they had the characters doing PSAs in commercial breaks promoting Algore's global warming. I hated myself for watching the first couple of episodes and then riding the damn thing all the way to the ground. Never again. Stay in the drunk tank, Jack Bauer.
