Oh boy. Here we go again! Just another exciting day in the life of 24 super-agent Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland). The season kicks off with a deadly terrorist strike resulting in the kidnapping of his new boss, the U.S. Secretary of Defense James Heller (William Devane). Although a fired, ex-employee of the Counter Terrorist Unit (CTU), it is no surprise who is going to shift into full gear to bring the terrorists to justice. However, it doesn't take the super-agent long to discover the kidnapping of his boss is part of a much larger plan, master-minded by Habib Marvan (Arnold Vosloh) the middle eastern terrorist cell leader the US government has been trying to track down for years. Considered by many to be the best season of the first four, 24 - Season 4 is a definite departure from the first three seasons. First, the cast is almost entirely new. Second, the pacing of each episode does not seem as frantic. There appears to be a shift from the reliance on plot-shifting cliff hangers (which in some ways dragged down the quality of Season 3), to a focus on complex, over-arcing, multiple storylines, albeit very violent. What may be missing in superficial action clichés is definitely compensated for in a richer plot. That's not to say the show has slowed down; it's still amped up beyond anything else on TV, but compared to the previous seasons, 24 has gotten a lot smarter, and in turn, better. --Rob Bracco

primetime pro-torture fun for the family November 25, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful

Ohh those darn bureaucrats! Releasing a known terrorist BEFORE he could be properly tortured. Well at least they KNEW, like had real metaphysical certitude it was a bonified evil doer. Often in the real world part of the problem is they don't know. But we're not dealing with reality here folks. Oh, I'm sorry, does that bother any fans out there? Just moments before they can do what in "24" always must be done to save the day, guess who shows up to mess up everything? You probably guessed it: a liberal. Well a guy that is a sort of talk radio Fox news sterotype of a liberal -- a lawyer from an organization called -get this- "Amnesty Global". Lol, For those not familiar, there is something in the real world called Amnesty International. It is an "international non-governmental organization which defines its mission as 'to undertake research and action focused on preventing and ending abuses of the rights to physical and mental integrity, freedom of conscience and expression, and freedom from discrimination, within the context of its work to promote all human rights'". Amnesty International does wonderful work throughout the world. But back to the show, so like this weasel lawyer spouts off a bunch of stuff about the Geneva Conventions and millions of people almost die because of it! Luckily lonestar Jack Bauer (J.B. are popular initials for super-agents) does the right thing, quiting the Terrorist Unit, Counter Terrorist Unit, becomes a private citizen and then is free to break the suspect's fingers. I was reading about an event sponsored by the ultra-rightwing Heritage Foundation at which "24"'s producers along with three cast members appeared with Homeland Security Chief Michael Chertoff. A discussion was moderated by Rush Limbaugh about the public image of US terrorism policy.

"24" repeatedly made the argument that torture works. "24" put forward to the American television viewing public the "ticking time bomb" case for torture: we must torture a suspect, or else thousands, maybe millions will die soon. Probably within the next hour. There has never been a ticking time bomb case but lone super-agent Jack Bauer faces them all the time. Yea it's just a TV show, but it's funny how TV has always both reflected and shaped the attitudes and views of the American public ain't it? Funny too how many of those who would shout the loudest it's just a TV show and unconcerned with violence and torture, are also often those more bothered by a naughty word or "wardrobe malfunction". "24" is the ultimate Bush post 9-11 America War On Terra TV series. Time for Bauer to retire.

Good Season, But..... October 18, 2008
Is it me or did anyone else ever wonder what the hell happened to Behroos? Yes, we can all assume he was killed, but we never really know what happened. And it was well assumed that Bauer knew there was a connection between Behroos and Marvan, but.... they never got to that point! No body found, nothing reported. That was a big mistake on this season and kind of left part of the story incomplete for me. However the suspense lasted from the beginning to the end. I wonder if this kid is going to show up in future shows or not.
I would like to go on, but there are more reviews that can explain everything else more. I don't want to blow it for anyone, so I won't say much.
Glad to see Almeida's sexy self return in this season. Besides Jack, Tony's the other reason I watch the show.
Is it me, or is this show starting to focus too much on CTU's personal relationships? I know everyone has their problems or unresolved solutions, but this season's love sections were a bit too much compared to the actual crimes that were being committed.
Might want to steer clear of that because it makes the writers look a bit desperate in trying to find out what the hell to come up with next.

High adrenaline show! October 15, 2008
24 has a concept that was hard to get used to at first. Every season takes place within 24 hours. 1 hour per episode done in (close to) real time.

Jack Bauer works for the counter terrorist unit and fights a new terrorist threat every season. He also has to deal with his personal life and the dysfunctional family his job helped to create.

While the show does stretch the boundaries of believability at times it is still a very well made show and keeps you on the edge of your seat. With each episode being so strict on a time constraint and every season running for only a day in the character's life there is no room for boring filler episodes that many series suffer from.

24 Season Four August 18, 2008
My wife and I saw all the episodes of season three and the DVD disks were perfect! When the Olympics are done, I plan to start watching season four. I used standard shipping and received the package overnight!
