Am I the only one not caring about this secretive organization? That somehow was involved in all the prior 24s incidents (or some anyway)? And Renee going Bauer style just seems silly. I was a fan of the show but I just can't get into what they've been doing with it lately. I'll probably just wait for dvds for season 8 (that is of course if opinions are high)

If Jack and Renee both agreed that something needed to be done to Alan Wilson why didn't they just let Tony kill him? They could have claimed they didn't have time to stop him. Seems stupid to get Renee in big trouble when Tony could have finished Wilson off.

I thought it was hilarious when Kim recovered that laptop and was telling Renee how to recover stuff off of it. Renee looked so surprised.

I was a bit shocked to find out Tony and Michelle were going to have a son.

Bill will be missed.

My wife and I kept making these type of comments: "Jack Bauer could kick Chuck Norris's ass in a bar fight..." "If Jack Bauer was a car he'd be a Lamborghini Gallardo." There were some others, but after reading comment #829 i forget them all. The show got pretty dang ridiculous.

According to my watch, it's time for the second piece of casting on 24's eighth season!

Chris Diamantopoulos -- best known as Debra Messing's gay BFF on The Starter Wife -- has been tapped to play the series regular role of Rob Weiss, the argumentative and tough new Chief of Staff to President Allison Taylor (Cherry Jones). He replaces Taylor's current C.O.S., Ethan Kanin, who snatched his job back in last Monday's finale after the prez's psycho daughter, Olivia, was taken into federal custody.

As I previously reported, Day 8's action will switch from Washington D.C. to New York City and center on an assassination plot against a visiting foreign leader (Slumdog Millionaire's Anil Kapoor, the new season's first piece of casting).

This is season was so corny and predictable. I lost count of how many times I facepalmed watching the last two hours.

Agreed, show has been on last leg for the past few seasons and this season took the lame to another level. The first time after 7 seasons, I can say that I probably won't be tuning in for season 8.

Really...I was kinda hoping Jack would die so the show could end...

I mean, he was gonna DIE IN A FIRE. That, my friends, would have been a badass way to go (as a TV character).

That being said, the show ending on a cliffhanger is an even worse ending than Jack getting saved. Sigh...

These last couple seasons have been great, 2-4 were rubbish. If you stayed in this long you know you won't be leaving for season 8. If you got through Kim vs. the mt. lion and came back this was hardly that bad.

Lame plot elements were fresh the first time around, it's when I start to see the same lame plot elements the second or third time through that the show is officially on it's last leg. At least make the effort to come with all new lame plot elements.

Jennifer Westfeldt, John Boyd cast in real-time drama

Jennifer Westfeldt and John Boyd have joined the cast of Fox's "24."

On the upcoming eighth season of the real-time drama, to be set in New York, "Kissing Jessica Stein" star Westfeldt will play the recurring role of Meredith Reed, an ambitious journalist with ties to Arman Hashemi (Anil Kapoor), a Middle East leader who comes to the U.S. on a peacemaking mission.

Boyd ("The Notorious Bettie Page") will be a regular on the 20th TV/Imagine series, playing CTU systems analyst Jonah Schwartz.

Westfeldt and Boyd join previously cast Kapoor and Chris Diamantopoulos as the "24" producers are filling nine major new roles for Season 8, slated to begin production today.

Westfeldt recently recurred on ABC's "Grey's Anatomy" and launched a production company with "Mad Men" star Jon Hamm.

      That's not clickbait. Clickbait is headlines like, "You'll never guess what this person looks like now" for example. For goodness sake, take a look around the internet if you think this is clickbait. How do sites survive if people don't click through to articles? How many people in all honesty would have clicked this if it had your suggested headline? You and those upvoting your post won't be happy until the web is a couple of hundred websites all behind a paywall.

      Maybe I missed it, but does this say anywhere that the game save bug has been squashed? I haven't encountered it myself, but it would be nice to know I'm good to go. Anyway, amazingly well done game. Mostly more of the same. ...but when the same is best in class with improved graphics and features, then a win.

      Well when your game flops, you should expect this. If I do bad at work, I would expect a layoff. Less than 1600 people played it on steam. https://steamdb.info/app/1934570/charts/
