24 Getting Itself Into Trouble

I think the reason that 24 is so inconsistent this season is because they bumped off the majority of the characters that people cared about last season. Last season was great, but the problems started back then, not during this season.

They also have too many characters this season.

There is not enough time in an hour long show to make all of these characters multi-dimensional. Karen Hayes ends up in an airport for two episodes waiting for a plane, give me a break. Where is Jack's dad? Is Jack going to smooch with his dead brother's wife?

I agree about not knowing President Logan's status or what has happened to Martha and Aaron.

They had a chance to make CTU relevant when that British sounding dude (Johnson) was in a position to blackmail Ricky/Mike. But they finished off that storyline right then and there by having Mike coming forward and clearing Nadia. That story had a lot more potential.

I kinda wish all of Season 6 had been about Jack figuring a way out of a Chinese prison, and getting out of the country.... THAT, woulda been a nice break from the formula.

Prison Break In Fine Form

In one sublime early scene of Monday (March 26) night's Prison Break, viewers were treated to the following puzzle: T-Bag fled a Panamanian hotel followed by the two least stealthy G-men ever. Those two were, in turn, followed by Michael, Sucre and Bellick, blending in every bit as poorly. Those fugitives were, in turn, followed by Mahone, twitchy and out-of-place as ever. And Mahone, finally, was being followed by Lincoln, eyes bugging with a "I was nearly on a boat to total freedom and now I have to trail my baby brother through the streets of the Third World country" fury. It became a delicious Prison Break conga line.
