I'm really hoping something happens to make Tony useful. Otherwise why the hell did they bring him back at all?

I always wondered why they announced Tony's return before the season even started. In earlier seasons, they would have kept it under wraps to surprise you.

Now, I'm beginning to understand what it was about: a desperation ploy, to ensure some fans would stick around until the halfway mark.

Can we swap the lead for Isaac?

Seriously. Isaac has been consistently more badass (and a better actor) than the lead of the show.

 

[Apoc29]

Isaac: "I don't want those bastards or the government to be able to trace you, a'ight?"

Straight up gangsta!

 

[The One Who Knocks]

Can we swap the lead for Isaac?

I could get behind this. He even has his own version of CTU.

 

[strikeselect]

Couple of things:

1. Isaac is the only positive thing about this season so far IMO. Eric Carter is a bitch compared to his brother.

2. I absolutely hate the way they've brought back Tony. Who approved this crap? Ugh.

3. I think I'm done with these 12 episode seasons. They just don't feel like 24 to me.

 

[Jason Frost]

Okay but like...who is this guy? Has he been mentioned at all before tonight? Are we supposed to know why Carter knows who this guy is?

Could he be Ibrahim Bin-Khalid?

 

[Daffy Duck]

This is the thing that drives me nuts about this season. You bring back a guy like Tony, then proceed to give him zero explanation or characterization, then zero dialogue, then make him useless.

We've had that old dude get tortured for a third of a season and it goes nowhere. And this happens constantly with every plot where they just go in circles for hours at a time.

It's just awful, that kind of thing might have worked with 24 episodes were they flesh/pad things out but with only 12 episodes they don't get the luxury.

The whole thing is just a mess and shouldn't even carry the name 24, it's been dire, I'm just sticking with it as I've watched it so far and want to see how it ends.

The whole build up with the original sleeper cell was rubbish as well.

Lol

Yes, Isaac is awesome.

Oded Fehr coming back to finish the job he started in Showtime's Sleeper Cell

 

[Bishop89]

just finished watching episode 8

 

[Line_HTX]

Is Oded Fehr the same guy from The Mummy? Who was also season 4 villain Marwan who escaped capture several times as if he was using his powers from The Mummy.

No, Habib Marwan was the ACTUAL Mummy. He's a different actor than Fehr, who played Ardeth Bay and had long hair.

:lol

 

[Lonestar]

I'm just going to ride out the rest of the series, and assume it's all over.

Just a waste.

 

[this_guy]

I've been watching Jack Bauer as president and i have to say Designated Survivor has been the better show.

 

[stenbumling]

I've been watching Jack Bauer as president and i have to say Designated Survivor has been the better show.

Seriously, it is the true successor to 24. Perfect amount of camp, action and heart.

 

[Line_HTX]

Too bad no one fucking posts as often in that show than here, and I love Designated Survivor also. Sad...

 

[Lonestar]

Yeah, I've liked D.S. but I need to watch last weeks episode.

 

[Line_HTX]

8 P.M. to 9 P.M. time.

The long haired horseman from The Mummy is now the REAL Final Boss.

BWONG!!

LET'S GO ISAAC!

 

[blitzwolf215]

24 time.

 

[DangerMouse]

Let's go

I've been watching Jack Bauer as president and i have to say Designated Survivor has been the better show.

I need to catch up on that. Too many Wednesday shows dammit.

 

[Baroquemantic]

I'm here. In real-time.

Edit: Designated​ Survivor is indeed fantastic. I forget that there is a thread for it.

 

[Line_HTX]

You not finna tell her, man?

 

[DangerMouse]

Not even taking a moment to wipe the blood off his head lol

 

[awilliams213]

Big Boss knows all

 

[Line_HTX]

Damnit, you were an ally in The Mummy!

 

[Oozer3993]

"Welcome back Andy, and kudos on your incredible, Wolverine-like recovery from the stabbing. Now back to work."

Damnit, you were an ally in The Mummy!

She dead and we all know it.

Man Nasiri works fast. Only took him 8 minutes to find and kidnap the girlfriend of a CTU employee and strap her with explosives.

 

[DangerMouse]

Mind reader villain baby. Knew just which random guard to go after.

 

[Line_HTX]

"Welcome back Andy, and kudos on your incredible, Wolverine-like recovery from the stabbing. Now back to work."

Broken leg instantly healed, right?

:lol

 

[DangerMouse]

The truth of this just made me ROFL. Didn't he just barely stealth out of a surprise raided site a few minutes ago?

"Welcome back Andy, and kudos on your incredible, Wolverine-like recovery from the stabbing. Now back to work."

LOL yeah!

 

[Kifimbo]

Starting strong with yet another ridiculous plot device used 100 times in the past. This time with an unknown guard we have absolutely no emotional connection with.

 

[DangerMouse]

Heh

 

[Line_HTX]

Me and Eric took those bitches down.

 

[CoolOff]

Oded Fehr coming back to finish the job he started in Showtime's Sleeper Cell

Amazing show that I need to go back to.

 

[Baroquemantic]

That's not who I expected to be working with him.

 

[Incendiary]

Oh. Nasiri playing a Batman Gambit and having a hostage ready before things go down.

 

[Line_HTX]

Big mistake, lady.

 

[MIMIC]

Well I'll be damned 😂

 

[DangerMouse]

That "acting job" by random girl lol.

Knew at least one of those grunts was gonna die lol. Expected both though.

Bad move.

[this_guy]

I would take a selfie if I saw someone strapped with bombs. But that's just me.

 

[Line_HTX]

You gon' try?

 

[blitzwolf215]

Carter is gonna defuse a bomb, seems like a Jack Bauer thing to do. Was Nasiri in the 24 VR prequel maybe?

 

[Kifimbo]

Another video loop. Even the tech girl acknowledged it's the second time this season they are using this strategy.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Welp, guess I'll finish watching this later. Bad weather and satellites don't gel.

 

[DangerMouse]

"So it's over?"

Ahahahahaha. Yeah, no.

Daddy still hiding secrets.

 

[Line_HTX]

Tony: Shocked, but not shocked.

 

[Nobility]

Give Tony the stage, him and Carter is the only reason we want to watch.

 

[DangerMouse]

Good stuff Tony.

 

[DangerMouse]

ROFL dad, now it's just flowing out.

 

[blitzwolf215]

Daddy is just pissing me off now.
