6:23 PM - Well, it took me 47 hours and 36 minutes, but I finished season one of 24. I was riveted! Bring on season 2. Just a few observations:
-Boy, everyone's relatively fresh-faced for being up for 24+ hours. Last summer my buddies and I were up for over 30 hours straight for my best friend's bachelor party in Vegas and we all were super sluggish and barely coherent towards the end. Of course, entering a nudie bar at night and leaving in broad daylight will do that to you.
-Dennis Hopper's accent was laughable.
-Although very cute, Kim is an idiot. If she were a real person I'd say thank God for that ass, because she's not going to get through life with her brains. And, really, how many times in one day can someone be kidnapped/held against her will?
-Sen. Palmer's wife is a Class A-1 Royal Queen of the Harpies.
-Every time I heard the name Chappelle (the top CTU guy - I think), all I could think of was "I'm rich, beyotch!"
-Nina: I didn't see that coming at all. When I start season 2, I'm not going to trust anyone.
-Why is Kiefer Sutherland's introduction to season one on disc 6?
-And what kind of name is "Kiefer"?
Okay, I'm in dire need of a shower.

Ahh, Nina. You'll enjoy the second season :)
By the way, "Kiefer" is the German word for jaw. At least he isn't named "Oberschenkel."
This could only be one person - how's my favorite ragin' cajun/jersey metrosexual?
Not bad. Just bar studyin'. It snowed today, which is nice. And gonna pick up season 2 from my friend tomorrow.
Enjoy Mardi Gras. Shame there's not a Phat Saturday this year. Have you and Alva hooked up yet?
As for the Golden Globes...I just don't care. Never did. Not to be xenophobic, but it's the foreign press. C'mon! I'm hoping to have another Oscar pool this year. If Yahoo doesn't offer it (like they didn't last year), I'll just do it on my own.
Geez, now that I know a bunch of my friends read this blog, I can't write any dirt about y'all.
Then what does "Topher" mean?
Enhanced - believe her. When I went to visit last week, she had the eye of the tiger.
It's short for Christopher.
Makes sense. I usually go by Cah.
That makes it easier to remember, Cah.
Well, it was Jerry Orbach.
(too soon?)
I've been missing out on Hollywood since my free EW subscription ran out...but it'd probably cut into my daytime tv viewing.
Yeah, that whole lesbian thing caught me off guard. The main story itself pretty much sucked. It was the first one that I've seen with Dennis Farina.
Phones, letters, e-mail, chat rooms? Bah! Those all are so Sept. 10th. In the future, all human contact will be through comments in blogs.
I'm with Micah. Nothing like indirect contact.
IMDB is a perfectly viable place for information...
And you probably also read US Weekly. Ha ha ha!
No more Sept. 10th references. They're hella-lame.
So are you watching Season Two during this marathon blogging session? I think there are more comments on this post now than even on my "Best Movie Lines Ever" post on my blog.
But the last post on there was about football!
Nah - I'm returning season one to my friend tomorrow (provided that our snowy streets are clear). I'll pick up season two then. This one'll take a bit longer since I have my review class this week.
Some of us with post-graduate degrees are pretty scare of that place, too. And I'm a contributor!
Kim Bauer is significantly improved in Season Two. Although I can't speak of a reduction in abductions.
Joe, I guess we shouldn't use the term "nutjob" around him then?
KPMD - get used to feeling like a user because when we all share that communal house in the DC Metro area, this will be how we talk to each other.
Whatever happened to FunfaxVA? He dropped off the blog real quick.
A "user" is an indunstry term for "loser," BTW.
More Kim ain't bad - she's easy on the eyes. Lord knows that some of us bought "Girl Next Door" - *cough*16:9*cough*. Her character is just an idiot.
And "indunstry" is longhand for "industry."
Yeah, where is our favorite lil' 'brew that made out with two women?
But a very attractive idiot. Some things can be overlooked. Kudos, 16:9, for doing what I can't bring myself to do...approaching the checkout with that DVD in hand.
Joe, I understand that there are certain...sympathies to be had...I was referring more to his job at PMSNBC...
So did Clinton explain the blue dress?
No, I specifically recommended "My Pet Goat."
Not sure I'm familiar with that.
Ah, my "bad." I didn't notice that. Cocktail parties are fun. I'm having one by myself right now.
Actually, cocktail parties are quite fun. Had a Christmas one. Bought too much booze, though. Why did I buy that bottle of butterscotch schnapps? Oh well - I'm being creative. It's not bad when mixed with hot chocolate (a concoction that I'm drinking right now).
16:9 - you got that phat pad. Invite those Eastern European ladies of the night over.
The normals? Where is K.T.G.?
As for cocktails, I have just completed a magnum of Heineken that I received as a gift. 1.5L of Dutch bliss.
'Night, babe. You have a big day full of bourbon and pills ahead of you.
What was the quote from "Family Guy?" "I guess that means you'll smell like bourbon and vicodin." Well, to all the former Virginians out there, I'd like to point out that there's less than an hour until the official start of Lee-Jackson-King Day.
Thanks, Chris. Glad you stopped by.
Have a good night, 16:9. As the historian of our group, I should point out the reason for the triple holiday. Lee-Jackson Day existed before MLKJR day. It was meant as a celebration of their birthdays, the 21at and 22nd, respectively. When the Feds mandated MLKJR day, it just happened to fall on the same date.
Yeah, I'm gonna be hittin' the ol' dusty trail, myself.
This has been fun, guys. Loserific, but fun.
Well, happy dreams of an intelligent Kim Bauer to all.
I'm with Mindy on the book-fire. Not in like, and evil Third Reich kind of way, but in an anti-Clinton kind of way.
Of course, the Clinton book wouldn't have to be burned if it resided in the correct section of the bookstore...namely, "fiction."
I have to resist the German urge also. Not only do I have that background, I am fluent in their language.
That sounds ok to me.
Well I guess I'm the last one here. Hello? Echo...echo...echo.
In summation, 24 rocks!
I have the new season taped. I think you're inspriring me to go watch it now!!!
Nope!! Ronin's on TNT :) Even though I have the DVD, there's something about seeing it on tv...love that scene in the city center of Paris with that all-aluminum S8 Audi chase...
Oh Spydrz... so touched you asked about me :) I am just returning to the blogosphere after a weekend off (check my post.) Playing hookey today (am I a badgirl?) and enjoying every minute of it. I suppose I'm practicing for the coming world of unemployment :)
But of course!
