24

Gotta have my dose of fear. Great show, see it every week. But do you think that America can ever be this crazy? I doubt it. omg:

I like the show and it doesnt scare me at all .But i can see that it could scare some people. Is it a right wing propaganda show?.......Jim :confused:

My issiter jsut turned me on to 24 and over the last few weeks I watched every episode up to the current one.

I don't think it's right wing propaganda, but it makes you think about how we can't be all lovey dovey try to understand the terrorists OR kill em all in our mentality. I think its actually pretty fair, though the whole "every week Jack Bauer goes against every law in the book by violating a person's rights, but ends up saving the day because of it" does speak to the Republican agenda of "if we don't like you, you have no rights".

Thats alot of 24 watching in just a few weeks. Did you watch all 5 seasons or just this season?

There is a debate on the show. Kind of shows both sides, like the presidents sister against the detainees.......Jim :ioman

[neuroking]

Yeah, the whole thing - all 5 seasons plus the current episodes. It was crazy!

Yeah, I think the show is pretty fair in general, and tries to deliberately stay away from the political hot button issues and keep the story about the characters.

Yea I think its pretty fair so far. We will have to see how it turns out.

I missed the first season and like you it was my sister who got me hooked on this show. She had Season 1 on DVD and I watched the entire DVD before Season 2 started. And Ive been hooked ever since.....Jim
