Has anybody seen 24 with Kiefer Sutherland. It's been on for about 5 weeks now in the UK and it's just the best TV program that's been on for ages. Does it just get better and better?

Yes, I've seen an episode of "24", and it's a great concept, but it didn't hold my interest, maybe it was Keifer Sutherland, never cared for any of his films.

I have watched every episode. I was on the edge of my seat for the first several episodes, but now I just wish they'd get on with it already. It reminds me of the old "Cliffhanger" series when I was a kid. The damn thing never really ends!I need closure!!:lol:

It is a very interesting concept, each episode being one hour of a day, but I have to keep reminding myself that stuff from the first episode happened the same day. :rolleyes:

I love this show!!! It's one of the only ones on now that I tape if I am not going to be home. We have been watching since the beginning, and I just have to say....I wasn't a big fan of Keifer's before, but he really does do this role justice.

I'm a big fan of Kiefer. :biglick: :licky: Haven't seen 24, because I watch another show that is on at the same time. My mom watches it though. I did like Kiefer a lot in "Young Guns 1 + 2". :D

I watched the first two or three episodes of 24 and I thought they they were excellent and very absorbing. Unfortunately, I forgot when the show came on and I haven't watched it since! But I thought that Kiefer did an excellent job from the episodes that I saw!!! :)

I kind of know what yu mean there Trixter, however I do like a lot of the films he's in, but IMHO he tends to be the weakest actor in them. However in this, it's probably the best I've seen him, maybe he's better suited to TV.

I didn't realise it's still running in the states, I thought it would have finished a long time ago.

24 was on last night, and I actually had the chance to watch it! Last night's episode was quite good and it caught my interest right away. I really like the show's concept, which is definitely new! :)

Actually, didn't MTV have a show about a guy with a chip in his head, and the time on the show was real time in real life? I can't remember who starred in it, but this guy had to find a way who put the chip in his head, that could kill him? Anybody remember the name?

I remember seeing a film with Christopher Walken and Johnny Depp where it is filmed in real time. Christopher Walken kidnaps Johnny Depps daughter in order to get him to assasinate a presidential candidate, it turns out that Christopher Walken works for the election team and they all want her dead, makes it a difficult situation for Johnny Depp.

I don't know tis series Trixter, but it does remind me of Johnny Mnemonic, did they make a series of that film?

This was the movie Nick of Time from 1995. It was a pretty good movie. Johnny Depp always seems to pick the quirkiest movies to do!!! :)

No, It's not a series of Johnny Mnemonic, the guy rode a Harley with his girlfriend looking for the company that manufactured this chip. He would have attacks and there would be a timer at the bottom of the television screen. Does this sound familiar to anyone?
