(S07E23-E24) This season will have been, without a doubt, a much better one that the mess that was Day 6 in the life of Jack Bauer, but in a way, that wasn’t too hard to accomplish. With the way things were going down, there wasn’t too many different roads that they could go on, there were things you wanted to see happening, others you just knew would, and quite a few you were hoping they’d manage to stay away from.
Unfortunately they did not, and I have to say I didn’t like the season finale all that much. First of all, and I realize it was intended that way, the very end got quite slow, if not boring even, and while I’m not sure previous seasons ended differently, this one seem to really push things too far. It came to the point where, seeing there was still 10 minutes left, I just started to hope for everything to end already.

(S07E22) Next week we have the two last episodes of the season back to back, sort of a two-hour season finale, so it wasn’t hard to guess what this episode would be: not really exciting. We need an explosive season finale (right?) so this was more of the calm before the storm, getting ready and leading up to what will go down during the two final hours of this long day.
And in pure 24 fashion that means ending whatever was currently going on so that we can move on to the next bigger threat, what Jack will have to take care of before he eventually dies, because he’s still dying, there’s still no cure, and we’re running out of time. I’m sure about everyone assumes he will make it somehow, but I’ll repeat what I said before: I say let Jack die at the end of the day.

(S07E21) Hour 21. We’re getting closer and closer to the end of this new day, and if we all know it will have to end with a bang, that means I guess no one will really be surprised that until we get there, things are going to go a little slower. Case in point, this was very much the calm before the storm, the episode where it all gets set in motion: Tony and his new friends are getting ready to strike, Jack and Renee are not far behind them, more drama at the White House…
But it is slow, so much that if you missed this, I’d say you can be fine waiting for next week’s “previously on 24″ bit. Then, in two minutes you’ll probably found out as much as we did here in an hour, and yet you will not be missing anything really. Well, maybe another scene where Jack shows how sick he is, so someone can comment on it and someone else remind us that he’s been infected and everything. So, nothing new.

(S07E20) 24 hours, 24 episodes, that is along time, and to keep things up for that long isn’t easy, it requires plenty of work and lots of twists to get there and keeping the viewers interested and excited about the show and what’s yet to come. Last season was a mess, after a few episodes that started really strong, maybe too much, an horrible mess ensued and they just never recovered.
This season however, things looked much better, and for the most part it was solid. Of course there were things that still weren’t quite right, see that hostage situation right in the White House for one, but it was still good overall. Unfortunately, the last impression is also what might set the tone in people’s memories, and this season doesn’t look like it’s going to end very well.

(S07E19) Well, this episode was all about two things, two villains, one we already knew of, one we only suspected but maybe didn’t want to believe in. At least we didn’t get to see much at the White House, which is always a plus since it’s been a real mess with an awful President who can only trust people who aren’t worth much more than she is, like her own daughter.
The plot only move very little this week, because we still have yet to find out about the real big villain of the season and whatever it is he/she/they are trying to do (and why), instead we had, as previously mentioned, info on two villains. And things were very different for each of them, for one it just made no sense, while for the other it kinda made sense, and was pretty cool.

(S07E18) Okay, so we got three things to talk about after this episode. The first one is the immediate continuity of last week, when the President rushed to obey and do whatever Jonas had ordered her to do. I was amazed last week already by the way she was acting, because put it any way you want, after having made long speech earlier this day about never giving in to terrorist, after all she was ready to do earlier the way just not to let them win and have it their way, after all that now this.
Now she takes Jonas call, and obeys him. Plain and simple, the guy is a traitor and a terrorist, he is the one responsible for the attacks of today against the country, Hell he’s even the one behind the mess at the White House during which both she and her daughter have been held hostage at gun point (not to mention how he killed her son, and tried to get ride of her husband as well), and yet she welcomes him into the White House!??
