24: Season 6 Preview

So, we can all agree that Jack Bauer is quite possibly the best character on TV, ever. This guy would torture his own mother if he thought she was withholding information about terrorists. Anyhow, from the first week of June each year, until the first weekend of January, fans of the show wait impatiently and watch inferior TV. Last night, during the World Series game on FOX, the producers of 24 gave fans a hit of the addictive drug that is 24. The Season 6 trailer, at least this first version, looks incredible, and it appears that 24 will top its prior season, yet again. Jack Bauer is back, and he looks about like Jesus Christ with full-grown beard and Ron Jeremy-style mullet. Evidently playing on the Jesus theme, Jack Bauer is asked to sacrifice himself for the country. Rumor has it Wayne Palmer will make a play for the White House, and it appears that Chloe, Curtis, and Bill are all back as well. The terrorists even appear to be Middle Eastern, for the first time in a while; we will see if that holds up throughout the season. Not only can I not wait for 24, but I cannot wait to get back to the 24 drinking game. Any way that you can find to drink on a Monday is a good thing!
