The ironist's choice: 24 (Spoilers)

Prisoner no. 1300

08:57 / 15.03.02

I read in the Guide last week that it had:
LIBERAL LEFT POLITICS.
So i smoked a large reefer and watched it.

24 is not liberal.
24 is american shit.

BUT I fucking love it anyway, because it is so generally nang.
It's going to be a frustrating six months of watching this show and trying not to.

The only problem with it is that its being shown on BBC2, which is a shit channel, and - although I am of course opposed to advertising completely, I make an exception in the case of 24 because it means that the show is 15 minutes short of 1 hour! It's not in real time! The atmosphere just ain't the same as it is in America, where people rape their sisters etc.

It's okay, but the whole premise is, thus far, complete arse. The conspiracy in the FBI thing is more interesting right now, just so long as it doesn't descend into X-Files style farce. And Kiether Sutherland, suddenly he can act again!

I'm trusting that it'll get a lot better. That was certainly the case with Murder One, with which it seems to have quite a bit in common.

I bet some American has beaten me to this already, but I tell you, Jack is Evil.

More constructive thoughts when it's not 2.30am...

my sister said ok, so it's not rape.

24 had me until the episode where jack cold-bloodedly caps nina in the desert...and it turns out she was wearing a bp vest. goddammit i need senseless, remorseless violence!
