And I now remember why putting series like this on BBC2 is a bad idea... they always miss a few weeks for sport! First it was golf, next week it's snooker. Grr.

---

I can't decide which I think is worse... Channel 4's approach of showing a programme every week but forcing you to guess what time they've chosen this week or BBC2's constant time slot but regular messing around of schedules.

Ho hum.

Really should have seen coming that no-one could be quite as wet as Marie although that aside, finding the whole idea that she is a terrorist completely unbelievable to be honest.

The whole Marie's a baddy, and thingy's a goodie rather than the other way round did seem a bit hackneyed, overall the single biggest problem seems to be the sheer level of treachery throughout the show, every other persons betraying someone. Should they do another series Jack should just shoot everyone in episode 1, then work out what they were guilty of later Of course, starting with his daughter who though cute (and possibly more buxom this season) is far to stupid to live.

Gotta agree with you on this one. After series one I don't trust anyone except Jack and Palmer. I was even convinced that Paula was evil, well until the poor girl got all blown up.

Yep, that Kim is still alive is one of those great mysteries of life. Though I think that Kate could be even more dumb.

I'm just waiting for:
A: It to turn out that Sherri, Roger Stanton (NSA blokey) et al are working to help Palmer's campaign and stop a/the conspiracy

B: Megan to pull a gun and announce she's working with the terrorists, and demonstrate her skills as a master assassin by killing all the CTU staff ('cept Jack, of course) with her sonic disruption-whining super-powers...

Well our DVD set of S1 arrived ages ago and we got into watching it the past couple of days. And all I can say is OMG!!!!!!!

Never has a TV show got me so gripped that basically *everything* stops.

Len says he now knows what to do to get me to keep quiet

Can't wait to see S2 (will have to wait for the DVD release in August). Top show!

Another convert.

I'm finding series 2 has lagged a bit in recent weeks.

Ultimately, I just don't believe any American president orders the start of a war in the Middle East within a few hours and am struggling with that credibility gap.

Why doesn't Palmer just go to bed and think about it in the morning.

They do seem to be having a bit of a problem with the bomb having gone off and there being nine more episodes to fill. Last year it was Dennis Hopper and his ridiculous accent, any bets on who'll turn up towards the end of this season?

Although I'm not sure Palmer going to war in such a hurry is the least believable aspect of it for me. The black-ops guy, Jack going it alone again, the continuing adventures of Kim 'giving blondes a bad name' Bauer, it's all deeply, deeply silly..

I was sure there would be a second device but apparently not.

I just block out Kim Bauer so it doesn't bother me too much although I do like the way BBC links inevitably now refer to her as the world's unluckiest girl.

Yes, the whole thing is deeply silly, but some things I will go with and some I won't, and what I won't go with is President 'So damn perfect it hurts' Palmer rushing a decision to plunge the Middle East into war. Even G 'Rambo' Bush waited a while before bombing Afghanistan.
