I don't think a spoiler thread was completely necessary. I am in no way knocking the idea Archie, because it is a really good idea. But only if there's a lot of people who want the spoilers (an example being Big Brother over the summer).
Then again, I may be way off, and I may be the only person who doesn't want spoilers.

It does, but it's also a great test of self-control.

I'm not sure about the idea either. It's a balance thing I guess, on the one hand while I don't mind all the spoiler bars at all (really), I think some do. But the good side of having it in here is we can ask a question and get answers such as about Devane and the former first couple, yesterday.
Back on topic: this series needs to have a season where all telecommunication is knocked out somehow. Seriously it would be fun to see them deal with no cell phones and radios.

loyal, make yourself useful.
Is Elisha Cuthbert going to be on this season??????
I haven't watched Seasons 1-5, so I don't know if she was killed off or anything. All I know is that she's kinda well put together

You don't want Elisha Cuthbert to be on.
She was never a bad actress or anything, but Kim is just kind of whiny and annoying.

If there's a god, she was vaporized along with Chase when the nuke went off.
I don't remember which episodeDay 4 or 5) but they did mention Chase and/or Kim living somewhere in Santa Clarita - which is were Valencia is, lol.
Or I might be dreaming.

Is it true you haven't given The Office a chance? Because of Ugly Betty?

Hmm... interesting. This definitely sets up a lot for the upcoming seasons of 24, and possibly even the movie.
Does that mean that Jack and Co. are pretty much just killing arms and legs of the monster, while the head has yet to be really brought into the picture?
Or, is that even confirmed to be true? I sorta glanced after the first few paragraphs, so forgive my lack of knowledge on it.

I sorta glanced after the first few paragraphs, so forgive my lack of knowledge on it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FanwankThe only problem with completely writing it off as fanfic or fanwank are instances where the producers seem to point to a large conspiracy arc. For example, the scene from the 24 video game where Nina Myers is seen looking over a computer file that includes the names Trepkos, the Salazar brothers, Marcus Alvers, and Michael Amador. Oil and assuming power at the White House seem to be a common theme throughout seasons 1-6. And from what we're learning about Day Six, there may be a reason Jack is constantly at the center of all the chaos.
And the fact that baddies like Mandy keep showing. I think there is some kind of link though I am not sure if it is mass conspiracy or the bad guys use the same villian for hire service :p

Ok 24 buffs, how did Jack, and his brother, go on such different paths, and what happened between him and his father? I havent watched season 1-3, so can someone fill me in. I know his brother, or i think it is his brother, he is from season 5, helping President Logan, but yeah, anyone care to fill me in?

This is the first we've heard of Jack's family. Like, ever. So good luck getting answers from those without spoilers.

That would explain his blond locks. Apparently the hot gene for Kim comes from Teri though.

$10 says Jack's nephew (who looks suspiciously like Kim) is actually his illegitimate love child with Rena Sofer.

I hope FOX campaigns him for Best Guest Actor then.

I'm not sure I'm going to be a big fan of Jack's family, but I am glad Jack seems to be back in the swing of things.
