I've been of a fan of 24 since the first season started. But so far this season, its a bit disappointing. Somehow the writers failed to catch the magic with me that they have every year. And the show is becoming ridiculously far-fetched in some respects. Especially with Los Angeles constantly under siege. And it is even more disappointing to see that they keep coming back to the "bad guy gets a nuke".
The first season of 24 was something completely different and not as "save America" intensive, and it worked really well because it was more about the life of Jack Bauer and less about saving the world. Then season 2 hit which the enemy got a nuke, that was intense. Then there was a biological threat and some other stuff.
But in either case, the show is getting becoming a bit too much for me. It'd be great if they could explore other potential forms of terrorism, maybe like a massive cyber attack or something. Or bring the focus of the show back into a smaller perspective like they did originally. That, and they have to stop putting Jack into those "he is going to die" situations. Because we all know at this point he isn't going to, and so it really kills all the suspense.
