I just finished watching the DVD set for 24 season 4. Season four was the only season that I haven’t seen, and season 5 will be starting January 15th, so being a good friend Vivek gave me the DVD set for Christmas. I watched a disk or so every night (yes the show is like crack) and have finished! I’m now ready to get started on season 5, and see what Jack Bauer has coming his way in yet another longest day of his life. Season four was very good, and in classic 24 fashion, was filled with twists, action and a yelling Jack Bauer. The only thing that really bugged me about season 4 was how they used a F-117 to be a stealth airplane that shot down another plane with a missile. Of course 24 is packed with things that are not likely real or pushed way to the edge of what is possible, but for some reason that was part of that show that couldn’t of happened that really bugged me (the F-1117 is a bomber only and cannot fire air to air missiles/guns…well, as far as we know 
). So bring it on Jack Bauer, let’s see what we have in store for season 5. My bet is that we see or hear from Kim Bauer again in this season. In fact, that’s my prediction for the first episode. I think Kim (his daughter) will be part of what brings Jack back into the fold at CTU. If you are looking for something to entertain you, I would defiantly recommend 24. It’s the most intense show I’ve ever seen, and you will know by the end of the fist disk of season 1 if you are into it or not (it’s like crack!).
How much longer until LOST starts back up again? I think we still have a few weeks. If you like shows that you can really get hooked on, and don’t want the shoot um up, crazy intense 24, LOST is another great one that is very engaging but makes you think more. The same holds true for LOST as 24, go to Blockbuster and rent the first disk of season one, and you will know if you are hooked or not.
