Summary: 24 is one of the most addictive shows I've ever watched!
Review: I didn't start watching these until the first two seasons were out on DVD. I ended up staying up most of the nights trying to get through them they were so addictive. "What happens next?!" That's the question that keeps drumming through your mind as you watch. A great buy! If you are a 24 fan or someone in your famly is this is the perfect one to add to a collection.

Review: This is an action packed, heart racing, keep you guessing till the end, series that is worth every cent. I recommend you buy it because you will not want to wait a week in between. This movie will make anyone obsessed after the first hour, and even the busiest person in the world, you will finish all 24 hours in less than 2 weeks.

Summary: Season 2 of "24" on DVD is amazing!!!
Review: Jack Bauer ( Kiefer Sutherland) is still recovering from the death of his wife and the events that took place in season 1. He no longer works for the CTU, and he is trying to move on with his life by rebuilding a solid relationship with his daughter Kim (Elisha Cuthbert). Unfortunately, a terrorist threat has been announced, and over the course of the next 24 hours, a nuclear bomb is going to be detonated in Los Angeles. David Palmer ( Dennis Hayworth) is now president, and is faced with the challenge of containing the threat. The only person Palmer can turn to is obviously Jack Bauer- the man who saved his life. Now Jack must become the man he once was, and find out who is behind the nuclear bomb before it is too late... I was originally very skeptical when it came to season 2 of Fox's ground-breaking show "24". Season 1 had incredible acting, nail-biting suspense, and a totally original format of airing each episode as an hour over the course of one day. I figured there was no way that FOX could pull off a second season that even came close. However, the show managed to become even better for season 2. The plot behind season 2 really hits home because of the events of 9/11. Another thing that was great, was the fact that season 2 managed to build off of the previous season when it came to the characters. Even though season 1 was based on a different set of events, the emotional fall out from that day is carried over into season 2, because of how great the acting was. Kiefer Sutherland, Dennis Hayworth, Elisha Cuthbert, Carlos Bernard ( Tony Almeida), Sarah Clarke ( Nina Myers), and Penny Johnson ( Sherry Palmer) are all back and are all fantastic. In fact, it was one of the most well rounded performances from a cast I have ever seen. The second season was even better than the first season in my opinion. However, the show was not the only thing that improved. The DVD itself took a complete 180 when it came to the special features that were offered. The first season DVD set did not really have any special features at all, or even any scene selection. The second time around, FOX made sure to correct their mistake. First of all, there is actually scene selection. You do not have to manually skip through the whole episode just to find a particular scene. The special features are great as well. The show itself fits over six discs. However, a seventh disc was created that contains nothing but extras. There are 44 deleted scenes, three incredible featuretes, and much more. If you were a fan of the first season, there is definately no way you can afford to pass this up. A must buy!!

Summary: Much better than season 1
Review: yes it is better than the 1st one as the show is steering away from the unnecessary things and sticks to the mian plot and the surprises just keep going as you never know what to expect. Kim Bauer is absolutely one of the dumbest character ever but her role is pretty limited in this season. Jack Bauer and President Palmer are two great characters as you will once again stay up all night to watch the show. CAN'T wait for season 3!!!

Summary: I'll miss Sarah Clarke but can't wait to see Andrea Thompson
Review: After a very loooong wait since the last episode of Season One, I've just spent almost a week to watch Season Two from beginning to end and realized I made a good decision to wait for the DVD set instead of watching "24" week by week on TV. As most other viewers have pointed out, this show is definitely getting better and better, and given the way Season Two was concluded I can't wait to see how the David Palmer/Jack Bauer story continues in the next season. I know I'll miss Xander Berkeley whose character George Mason has been written off... I'll also miss Sarah Clarke (Berkeley's real life wife) because Fox wouldn't have Nina Myers come back in Season Three... But it's fun to know that Kim Bauer (Elisha Cuthbert) will be getting directly involved with CTU's plot plans so she won't keep annoying people as Jack's airhead daughter who by making all the wrong choices has caused too much trouble to everyone else in an irrelevant way... But most of all, as Season Three begins, I can't wait to see Andrea Thompson. I really hope they'll write a great script for her character. I've been missing her a lot since her latest and brief appearance on CNN's Headline News.

Summary: More & better than Season 1
Review: More exciting, more action (maybe you could say more violent, has more global implication & more political in nature. More realistic as it started 8 in the morning, everyone having had enough rest, unlike the previous season where it started at midnight. Characters are more annoying --- Sherry palmer's undying line "I am doing this for you David"; Kim's incessant ability to get in trouble & demand rescue from Jack during the latter's crucial moments at job; endless power-playing not only within CTU but also within the entire Division, etc., etc. Did I say more realistic? Yes I did, but let me repeat it again. With all the day's events, Jack wouldn't get out unscathed (physically, at least) unlike Season 1. There you go, now you know. But how, just watch the series, either in video or on TV.

Summary: I'm ready for more!!
Review: The intensity of 24's second season was greatly heightened by its coincidence with our fear of the war on Iraq. Moment after moment hit so close to home, yet it also contained personal touches much like its first season. Many people wonder whether or not the show can keep going. Once the novelty of something wears off, then what does it have? However if 24 was all about its ticking clock and real-time structure, then the novelty would've worn off a long time ago. I'm no longer "fascinated" by the format of the show like I was in the beginning, but I still love it for its tension. I care about its characters because the weaving in and out of the many storylines is done so beautifully. I will say that this season dropped the ball in at least one way; Kim's storyline was rather expendable. Many fans believe that she should be killed off, but I stand for the notion that Elisha Cuthbert is too good of an actress to let go. The problem with the Kim plot has nothing to do with the acting and little to do with the situations she's put in. As a matter of fact, I think that the events of her day are compelling within their own right. However what Kim goes through has very little, if any, affect on everything else that takes place on the show. Other storylines all strengthen one another - take one away and the plausible and/or intensity of the others is greatly diminished. Take Kim's story away, and you probably wouldn't know the difference; so with it there, it's merely distracting given the urgency of potential war and genocide. We should care about Kim simply because we care about Jack's love for his daughter, but in the world of 24, if it's not important to the plot then fans don't care. But I'm not so sure that killing off Kim is the answer. In the coming season (3), they could very well write her off then make the same mistake with another character. While they may not be able to come up with another plot that hits close to home like season 2 did, as long as they keep the tension and connect the storylines, season 3 has potential to be the best yet.

Summary: Among the Best Thing on TV today
Review: Amidst the other trash and garbage on TV these days (ie... all the reality TV concepts), 24 is a refreshing example of what good story telling can be on TV. Is it perfect ?
Well NO.... there are the occassional holes in plot continuity which make the inevitable "twist" in the story flawed, but these are few and far between as compared to the second half of the first season when the show got a bit sloppy storywise. Season Two is a much better and "realistic" storyline overall with only a few lapses in logic and continuity along the way. The only real gripe many have with 24 is the side story that revolves around Jack's daughter Kim.
As in first season, the only reason this girl keeps getting involved in so much trouble is her own fault.
Given any situation she makes the wrong choice and thus creates a complex problem out of what began as a minor trouble.
She gets really annoying real fast. At times, the "Style" of 24 is criticized as being to close to a soap opera. At times this can in fact be seen.
The BEST story centers around Jack's actions.
On the otherhand, Kim's ongoing adventures are more like a bad soap opera with silly improbable events popping up in her way all the time.
My wife and I actually wish the Kim storyline was excluded all together. It would make for a better show.
(Hint Hint to the writers..... in Season 3 have Kim get married and leave the country or get killed off or something..please just get rid of that annoyingly stupid daughter). Still 24 deserves credit for being better than 95% of everything else on TV today.

Summary: Incredible series!!
Review: I'll keep it simple: this is the best TV series, bar none, IMHO. Since Season One came out on DVD and was such a success, I decided not even to watch the TV broadcasts of the Second Season until the DVD set came out so I could watch it without all the interruptions and waits from week to week. The Second Season delivers just as much suspense as the first. That is quite a feat for a series of this sort, because I usually tire and begin expecting the unexpected in a series which needs to have some sort of cliffhanger at the end of each episode to keep the audience coming back the next week. Somehow the writers manage to keep each episode fresh and exciting. The only thing I found a bit amusing was for the first 12 hours Jack was so careful to avoid telling anyone about the threat of a nuclear blast for fear of panic, and the last 12 hours it seemed like he started telling everyone he met about it. You can't go wrong buying this set if you like thrillers. Just be sure you make some coffee because you will have a tough time breaking away once you start. I plan to buy Season 3, 4, ....
