Yes! Give us 24. I mean the happening TV drama now showing in
the States, Hong Kong and UK... 24!

I have been watching the DVD that my friend bought from overseas.
Oh boy oh boy. It's cool. I hate violent show. But ever since I
laid my eyes on episode 1, I have been hooked onto it. Not because
I have changed my taste and started to like this show, but every
episode will make you want to see what's happening next.
It is called 24 because the show happens in real time. Every
episode tells about what is going on within 1 hour. Yes, 1 episode
is 1 hour of the story. And 1 season is 1 day of the story. You may
be wondering what the hell can happen in such a short time. Well, a
few stories that are inter related happen concurrently.
For example.....
Jack Bauer (the hero) works as a govt agent who has been assigned
to protect the Senator who is going to be the next president. A
group of terrorists wants to kill this Senator (I think because
he's black). So in order to use Jack to achieve their mission, the
terrorists kidnapped Jack's wife & daughter.
So every few minutes the story will feature Jack's story at work,
the Senator's story, and the story of Jack's wife & daughter
being kidnapped. On top of that, you have to figure out who are the
traitors among the govt agents. Is it Jack's ex girlfriend Nina
Myer (whom he was seeing while he was separated from his wife
briefly)? Is it Nina's present boyfriend?
I'm only half way through Season 1. I'm addicted to it. OMG! I've
never been so hooked on a TV drama, not even when I was a fan of
Ally McBeal!
