Anyone into 24. Just brought series four off the Internet for £17.99, which I thought was excellent value!!

Watched the first three episodes last night with the GF and WOW!! Just love the way Jack Bauer kicks Ar$e. I can honestly say that 24 is the best fictional drama bar none. I also love the way the plot changes direction and you are never sure (with the exception of JB) who will live and who eats bullets

Heard that the NEW Series 5 is going out on 12th Feb on Sky One. Anyone else into 24 or is it just me?

I was glued to the first series and the second but haven't had a chance to see any of the others yet. It is great TV.

Love the programme but can't watch it on Sky because all of the ad breaks ruin it as the tension is lost.

I either wait and buy the box sets or have a friend who downloads it the day after its on in the US - Series 5 is awesome too

never got into Lost, but again the GF sat there week on week watching it. Couldn't take it seriously, when 50ft white polar bears roamed the forest eating people and the fat guy never semed to lose weight, even though there wasn't a mcdonalds anywhere in sight !!

I remember the first episode on Sky lasted an hour and a half with 6 ad breaks

They used to have a programme on after on BBC2 that discussed what happened in the ep - that was good too.

The first series of lost was set over a period of around a month, so he wouldn't lose that much weight


24 is brilliant, season 5 has gotten off to a cracking start. Last week's episode was one of the most gripping I've ever seen, I truly thought a politician was going to lose his eyeball to Jack's knife

I loved the first couple of series of 24, but not having sky means I haven't seen any of the others looks like I am going to have to buy the box sets then I'd got as far as adding series 3 to my basket on amazon but have not bought it yet. I guess I may do it now

Is it the kind of thing you can watch over and over again?

Only watched the first two. Does Jack still have the world's stupidest daughter?
