I was out running around after a video iPod when the show hit at 7, but I get my network service from satellite. That gave me the ability to get all my errands done during primetime, then catch the west coast feed. I never miss a show thanks to the redundancy!

As soon as I heard the guy say “we patched it into a hardline” I smelled trap. But my last 24 hours weren’t as much of a mind job as Jack’s were.

You know, the city of Los Angeles once named a street after Jack Bauer. They had to rename it because people kept dying when they tried to cross the street. Nobody crosses Jack Bauer and lives.

Wow…. This season almost lost me the past 4 hours, I thought they could have easily ended it at 3 AM instead of dragging it on for 4 more hours…. but I have to say those last two hours were DAMN good… and those Chinese MoFos worked him over BAD. Think he’ll ever be able to see out of that right eye again? WOW!

As soon as he said to Audry “I’ll be right back”, I knew something was up… that and I couldn’t imagine him finishing the season actually kissing the woman he loved. Oh, and Mike Novak has been around since the beginning too.

Some thoughts:
* Yesterday when I was reviewing this season, I found a note that when Jack & Crew got to Bill Buchanon’s house, Wayne Palmer went upstairs… only to never reappear even after the house was raided.
* I got a kick out of the fact that they eluded to this last night with “Yes, Wayne Palmer should be there… no, no one has any clue where he is”.
* Chloe. Poor Chloe. It’s nice to see some humanity from her, but wow.

Jack Bauer and his lefty fellow travellers just plain hate the President. They offer vitriol and bile when they should be defending their leader in a time of crisis…and the Secret Service showed its true colours as closet Democrats. Why the 24 White House hasn’t privatised the Service or sent in Porter Goss to clean it up I’ll never know.

MikeA,

Privatize the Secret Service? Utter nonsense. Stop picking on those guys. They’ve spent the last six year scouring the Oval Office for old cigar and Big Mac wrappers.

My wife knew something was up when they said “patched through to a landline”…

Jack has the super-duper cell phone and it still would have been during his Nights & Weekend Minutes, so they would have patched through to it.

You can save the world from terrorists, infiltrate the presidential security team, bring the most powerful man in the world to justice…but don’t turn your back on the friggin Chinese. Dang.

And for a second there, I thought Audrey was in on it. She seemed to be smiling a bit too much. But then again, on this show, I’ve pretty much stopped trusting any of the women Jack loves.

Great finale, especially the smirk on Martha’s face when Logan realizes the other shoe has dropped.

Now I’m hoping against hope that Aaron will be back to somehow help spring Jack from the grasp of the Chinese.

Dave, did you get a summer computer?

If so, good for you.

I thought the Finale was way to predictable — and i don’t even follow the show. The best shows in the world are the ones that consistently make me guess wrong — and often.

This was good, but too easy to predict that he’d wired the pres, and that he was about to be snached up.
