Summary: This is the greatest thing to ever happen to me
Review: 24 Season 2, is the graetest thing to ever happen to me. I have a new hero and his name is Jack. Every moment that i spend with the cast of 24, I learn a new move that will help me become a top secret agent. 24 season two on dvd showed me that if i need to it's ok to saw off a terrorists head in order to get some info. I din't know that before. the quality of the dvd's is outstanding. the cast tremendous. (I also like pm for kids) David Palmer has really streched his acting limits. He's come along way from major league. I also enjoyed him in heat. great friggen flick. Has any of the cast thought about starring in back to the future 4? I'll write the script if you need it. One question. Do you guys ever get tired being up all day? I know that i would. I bet you drink lots of coffee. Helps keep you sharp eh! Well thanks jack. I've learned alot. and lets go get some bad guys!

Summary: 24 is absolutely teriffic
Review: 24 has to be one of the best shows on TV. If you are looking for suspense, action, deep plot twists, intense characters, and much more, this is for you. I can't wait for season two to join my collection. Season one was intense in its character development and its twisting and turning storyline. Season two adds action and new characters to the mix, and still manages to throw a few curve balls that you'll never see coming.

Summary: The Best Entertainment TV Has to Offer
Review: "24" is hands down the most remarkable, unique, and enthralling show to grace television screens in quite some time. Better still, the second season somehow manages to outdo the first by expounding upon the ingenuity of the real time elements. The characters evolve nicely and transition well into a plot with higher stakes and the potential for devastating outcome. You'd be hard pressed to find a character cooler, tougher, and even more complex than Jack Bauer. Kiefer Sutherland rocks, as do castmates such as Xander Berkeley, Michelle Forbes, Sarah Clarke, and of course, Dennis Haysbert. And the techinical aspects of this show, from the editing to the camerawork, to the photography, are all simply incredible. Great writing and superior execution of an enganging gimmick place "24" on a higher plane than most television dramas.

And as for those turned off by the terrorist plot, one would be remiss to simply label it 'propaganda.' The show effectively incorporates a new standard of living imposed on the US since the events of 9/11. "24" deserves credit for tackling such issues in an appropriate manner rather than circumvent them altogether. It's not a political commentary - its simply entertainment that one can relate to rather than escape from.

Summary: 24 still the best
Review: The people who wrote 24 had this storyline planned out before Sept 11 i believe, and the show was not intended to mirror real life at all. I highly recommend watching Season One first, in fact I think it should be required because many Season Two plot twists refer to things that happen in Season One. I think it's a great show, and definitely one of the best on TV right now and personally it's the best TV show i've ever watched.

Summary: Ho hum.
Review: Some Americans are really taking this 'war on terrorism' malarky way too far. C'mon, it's even infiltrating your television series' now. Viewers in the rest of the world are, via series' like this, force fed this kind of paranoid android stuff every DAY. Enough. The first series was fine, the subtext in this one puts me off completely, an endless and futile 'art reflecting life' cycle. Production values, good scripting, good character arcs, excellent work in front of and behind the cameras and dramatic tension are its plus points.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Waiting with anticipation
Review: I can't wait for this thrill ride to continue. Glad they picked up season 3, another dvd set to add to my collection. Definately the best show on tv, unlike anything out there. Can't wait for season 2 dvd. I hope it will have extra features, maybe even some easter eggs.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Jack Bauer is back and better than before!!!
Review: As this season opens, Jack Bauer's (Kiefer Sutherland) life is falling apart. His wife was murdered, and his daughter, Kim has disowned him. Suddenly he gets a call from the President of the United States (expertly portrayed by Dennis Haysbert) asking him to stop a terrorist plot to detonate a nuclear weapon in Los Angeles.
Upon accepting the mission, Jack is thrust into an emotional game of mystery and deciet as he goes undercover to uncover the location of the bomb. One of the highlights of the season is when Jack is reunited with Nina Myers (Sara Clarke), Jack's former co-worker at the Counter-Terrorist Unit, who is responsible for murdering his wife.
The real-time aspect of the show helps to build the tension as things get steadily worse for Jack Bauer. Attention is given to every minor detail in order to maintain consistancy throughout the story.
The characters constantly change throughout the story as the situations gets more intense. George Mason, Jack's untrusting boss, learns to respect Jack's unconventional methods and in the end is willing to sacrifice himself so that Jack can have a second chance to put his life back together. Tony, Jack's friend, will eventually try to hinder Jack's investigation, which has the potential to prevent an all-out war!
Based on the features of the previous DVD, we can expect the season to be presented in the Widescreen format, with surround sound, and a preview of what is to come in Season three. I know I speak for every fan of this series when I say I can't wait!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Chris doesn't know anything
Review: Everyone out there that has read Chris' review, don't listen to him. Chances are Chris from St. Louis probably does not even know what he is talking about. Truth be told, it sounds like he has never even taken the time to watch season two. Chris, if you see this review, why don't you try watching 24, and then write a somewhat intelligent review, otherwise don't write about stuff you know nothing about, because it just makes you look stupid.

Rating: 1 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: www.filmwiseguy.funtigo.com
Review: Season 2 is probably the best of the three. This one is much more gripping and does not include farfetched moments such as sudden amnesia in Season One. Everything in season 2 is suspenseful; from finding the nuclear bomb to the 24th Amendment on President Palmer and the aftermath of the nuclear bomb. "24" is so ingenious in making everything so fresh and original in each episode despite following one guideline throughout the year which is to stop the bomb. The finale is much more exciting with a cliffhanger ending that makes you wish this show would be called "48." I can't wait until season 4 for more suspense that only "24" can deliver.
