I'm rewatching the series with my 15 year old which has let me relive that 'first time' feeling, and oh man, it still hits so damn hard. we just watched the nuke episode and she absolutely melted, as one should. it's easy to think cynically about the series given how the writing fell off pretty hard in later seasons, but man, rewatching it has made me realize how much I miss that show. --- xyzzy ...

24 is still my favorite TV show of all time.

So I have started watching 24 on and off with the wife and we got to the end of season 2 which was an amazing season. But I get the sneaky suspicion that it has already reached its peak and will start getting a bit stale from now on. Is it still worth watching past this point, or does it get old very quickly? --- Well done to azuarc for finishing 67 places above me in the 2020 GOTD Guru Contest! ... Copied to Clipboard!

there's no time i think i'm a lot more critical as a viewer than i was when 24 was on the air (probably of much of the stuff you'd find in 24, too) and i haven't had too much reason to revisit it, but it's still sentimentally arguably my favorite show. in the end i think only 6 was truly terrible, but kinda like dexter, the badness of it kinda seeps into the later stuff when it's good also, i assume you mean the s2 nuke episode, and not s6? --- yet all azuarc of all sorts are more or less capricious and unreliable - they live in the varying outer weather, and they inhale its fickleness ...

But I get the sneaky suspicion that it has already reached its peak and will start getting a bit stale from now on. Is it still worth watching past this point, or does it get old very quickly?You could say the general formula is what it is but the beats they take to get there are all over the place. Also S2 is very front-loaded because there was apparently fear they might get cancelled halfway through. So it might start feeling like seasons lull in the middle more in comparison but they (mostly) are better in the back half than S2 is. --- "One toot on this whistle will take you to a far away land." -Toad, SMB3 ...

yeah 2x15. I wouldn't dare call 6x4 the nuke episode. there can be only one. I was rereading an old topic from after season 6 last night where I ranked moments and you and I went back and forth for like 2 months. good times --- xyzzy ... Copied to Clipboard!

My parents started watching it like halfway through Season 4 and I remember I'd watch a bit of it here and there. Then I missed the first 2-3 episodes of Season 5 but eventually started devoting my full attention to it. Watched every bit of 24 after that. Except for that weird 24 spin-off. I always meant to go back and watch Seasons 1-3 and 4 in its entirety. Just never got around to it. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> ... Copied to Clipboard!

I sometimes forget how good/riveting this show is. By any chance, does anyone have an old old old link? There was a '24 Best Moments of 24' or funniest or greatest and it came out after the third or fourth season. The logo/page was Calvin & Hobbes, and moments were presented in silly ways. I remember 'George Mason, American Hero' was a big thing; 'Crutches meet Tony, Tony meet Crutches;' and I think a whole post dedicated to Almeida's Cubs coffee mug?

Season 5 was amazing but at least for me a big part of the appeal was the expectations it set. Which season 6 did not remotely live up to. So I think I'd have to put the first two seasons before it.
