24: Day 5 Grade Hour 17

On a scale of 1-10 what did you give it?

copeab...

1.0

Girl calls 911 to save her mother and they both get capped (even if
offscreen)

cloud dreamer...

The unbelievable part is that the operator didn't tell the little girl
to stop playing with the phone.

Hiawatha Bray...

Call it 9.5. It was slow there for awhile. But it wrapped up with a
smokin' gun battle. Is it just me, or does 24 do the best shootouts in the
history of TV? Not even old Miami Vice episodes can compare.

cloud dreamer...

I'm thinking that anyone that helps Jack should wear a red shirt.

Michael O'Connor...

Arthur Lipscomb...

It was real nice of Jack to volunteer those cop's lives so he could escape.
I wonder what their families think of Jack's plan.

bklyntv...

I had the same thought.

Steven de Mena...

Jack didn't do it for himself, he did it for his country, so he could expose
Logan.

FACE...

Someone cue the Star Spangled Banner. :-)

jayembee...

That would depend on what they think when they find out that their
President was behind it.

I thought Wayne Palmer was going to buy it for sure; his future is
certainly not guaranteed the longer he hangs around Jack. I've really
come around on Wayne Palmer; I didn't like him when he worked for his
brother in Season 3, but he is a much more interesting character now.

<:)>...

Well, when you have a gun shootout just about every episode... one of
them's bound to be good.

cloud dreamer...

9.9

One of the better episodes I've seen. Really well balanced and Jack got
to threaten another woman!

Zombie Elvis...

How can something so implausible be so much fun?

David B...

Because it's done well. If it sucked then the implausible stuff would
bug us so much we'd stop watching.

kenm47...

3

Pick up the phone Jack and play the tape for the media!

Ken (Brooklyn)

Ken from Chicago...

But that would hurt ... America. Jack wants to let Logan to go "quietly"
with minimal damage to the country's reputation (e.g., like sneaking into
the Chinese embassy).

Who Turned Off The Lights?...

8.5
Let's face it. Nothing was ever as exciting as the first two hours of Day 4
which scores a 10.
