Don't you just hate it when an informant shows up at your door with knowledge of an assassination that he can't tell anyone until he's just about dead?? Yea, me too. Either way, I'm inexplicably drawn to this series and all its grossly predictable elements.
1) No one ever believes Jack Bauer is a good guy. Honestly, how many more times does he have to prove his loyalty to the United States? Shouldn't everyone know who he is before they taser him??
2) Chloe's priceless faces of constipation, er, consternation?3) The character with the shady past. (Oh yea, that's everyone.) This season I'm particularly intrigued by Dana Walsh (AKA: Jenny?) and her obviously fucked up relationship with Kevin. Spoiler alert: Highly unlikely that her engagement will survive the day.
4) Jack's sachel. (It's cool, Indiana Jones wears one... I bet he has skittles in there.)
5) Jack's "retirement" from this line of government work. Who does this guy think he is, Brett Favre?
6) The "someone on the inside." Seriously? Does anyone do a background check before hiring a mole with ties to the Russian mob to be the President's Chief of Staff?
7) The return of former characters. I'm especially pumped for Renee 2.0 who has managed to reinvent her image to an evil version of herself (as evidenced by her using a circular saw to dismember a Russian, whereas last season she actually cried about Jack's insensitivity.)
8) CTU's new sweet digs: an underground fortress that appears to be a combination of Area 51 and the Batcave. Overkill: everyone wearing a bluetooth headset at all times.
9) The presence of a nuclear weapon, biochemical warfare, bombs in need of dismantling, etc. etc.
10) Jack's overly aggressive interrogation tactics because "there just isn't enough time!" (Obviously the 24 drinking game would include consuming a beverage every time Jack uttered any variation of this phrase.)
