I like the show 24. I do. I like Kiefer Sutherland. I’ve enjoyed the past seven years of watching him run around shouting things like “There isn’t time!” and “How come all you guys gots machine guns and I’ve just gots this pistol!”. It’s a fun show. But I think it’s time to kill off Jack Bauer.
For six of the past eight years, Los Angeles has had a major terrorist attack in the show. Assassination, nuclear bombs, bio weapons. I think after 5 years of that, LA would have just moved. For last season, they moved the target to Washington DC… which strangely looks just like LA with a digitally superimposed Washington Monument in each scene. Apparently the producers think the Washington Monument is like the Mona Lisa’s eyes and it follows you like a puppy or something. But it doesn’t matter where the bad guys are, Jack Bauer will go kill them and save the day… for most people. Sometimes he’s late. If you’re cast as an extra during the first 18 hours of the show… chances are you’re going to be a fatality. You’re Jack’s motivation. That’s why he’s so snarly.
