24 season8: I have been a big Jack Bauer fan. But for the eighth time I think it's beginning to sound like a broken radio. The plot doesn't seem to be any different, there are bombs or some nuclear device around the country that they have to stop. And after sometime, Jack Bauer seems to be a not so real guy after all. I mean after all that he's been thru, I wonder why he's not yet in a metal facility or a psychiatric clinic. After some time it gets boring because you have seen it before in the past season. so is season 8 worth watching? (Even if they included Freddie Prince Jr in the cast?)

I think that's the problem with running a show with the same plot for too long. Just like what happened with prison break. the fourth season got boring to watch. Their title and plot is Prison Break, so I think it would be very corny if they always get into Prisons. It would be amusing though, but people will start to lose interest in them. I think that's what happened to 24. Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of the TV show. It's just that I wish they cut the series already since they're running out of disasters and conflicts which could happen in a country. The twists are still amazing though, but they're getting predictable.

I totally agree with you in saying that it gets pretty predictable after sometime.

I fell in love with Jack Bauer the first season he marveled us with his espionage skills. I liked that family thing that had been the main theme for the 24 hour dilemma. The subsequent plots had become more terrifying with all kinds of terrorists. On the whole, the concepts are believable (although I pray those things don't actually happen). What I don't like are the inferior portrayals of some of the cast. The presidents don't look convincing enough. I was surprised to see Freddie Prince Jr. That guy has a naturally wholesome image. But boy, he can act!

I still haven't watch 24 Season 8 and am still going to watch it even if you say after some time it gets boring.... As of now, of course I don't know what to say if it is still worth watching if I'm not going to watch it, isn't?
