24: 6 am – 8 am

Jack is back, baby! If you haven’t seen the first two episodes of 24, do not read any further.

Oh my god, I thought the first episode would never gain momentum! I really hate how slow things seem to progress at first. And just as I thought, Jack seemed to step back into his role quite quickly. Sure, he screwed up and read the traitor wrong, and made that little “I don’t know how to do this anymore” comment, but for the most part he’s the same old Jack, at least until later in the season when he gets in touch with his emotional side.

In any case, I prefer good old Jack to the defeated Jack who wanted to die. Mistake #1 for Fayed: telling Jack he was going to die for nothing. Mistake #2: Leaving the room before killing him. It’s just like every other villain in the world of fiction: they have to drag out killing the “good guy”, all the while explaining their evil plan to them. Just kill the guy already, damn!

It was fun trying to guess how Jack was going to get away, but how gross was it when he munched on that guy’s neck? I’ve seen Jack do some violent things before, but nothing like that! I seriously was peaking at the tv through my fingers because it was nasty!

I also noticed how Jack’s conveniently wearing a skin-tight shirt this season. I think that’s especially for us ladies. What do you gals think? Surely I have at least one female reader who lusts for Jack, right?

In any case, once things got going, the two episodes just whizzed by thanks to the power of our DVR. I can’t believe after tomorrow we’re going to have to wait a week for each new episode. 24 is like crack and I’m a junkie who needs her fix.
