Auggh! On another message board I frequent some moron thought it would hilarious to buy an ad that shows up at the top of each thread revealing one of the biggest spoilers about Season 6.
:mad:
Hilarity did NOT ensue in any form, I assure you.
Please, please let it be Chloe
Ninjas!
Viking ninja pirates who have hijacked a nuclear submarine!
Woo! I got it!

Yep – nobody runs like Kim. Run Kim run! (Bounce Kim bounce…)
If we assume that Season 1 occured on March 3rd, 2004 (the date of the CA presidential primary in that year), then the sixth season occurs in April 2013.
This is pretty wild, but I heard a rumor that somebody will be
tortured.
I’ve only seen the first three seasons, and all on DVD. I don’t think I could stand to watch it on a weekly basis; too much time to reflect on how ludicrous the plot is. Have I missed anything great? Should I order the DVDs for Seasons Four and Five?
(Incidentally, there’s no such word as “momento”, nor any movie by that title. It’s probably Memento that was being referred to. Here’s a little mnemonic device: it has to do with memory. Try and remember that.)
Having seen the first four episodes, I can vouch that the spoilers mentioned above indeed are minor. I will spoil one thing which is totally safe to check, since it doesn’t involve any kind of plot or character development very early in the season Jack gets to shout “I don’t have time to tell you, but trust me” over his phone. I’m very satisfied.
What pisses me off more than trailers is “Previously on [whatever show]” It’s so obvious what the plot will revolve around from seeing who’s featured in the recap. Especially if it’s a minor character that’s been gone for some time.
A friend has already seen the first four episodes(I don’t know how), and he says the season starts out great.
You misspelled “everyone” at the end of your post.
It’s gotten even more outlandish than it ever was in the first three seasons. If that’s your sort of thing, you’ll love it. If it nags at you, it’ll nag even worse.
Personally, I prefer to watch it weekly than on DVD - you’d think you’d be pondering on how ludicrous the plot is but it doesn’t work that way for me. I find that I let life get in the way and by the time I watch the next one, I’ve more or less forgotten the details so I don’t notice it as much. Seeing them all at once tends to make me say things like “Oh, come on, he was so injured he could barely walk only FIFTEEN MINUTES AGO and now he’s sprinting?!” But if I have a week inbetween, that fifteen minutes seems reasonable.
I was actually thinking the same thing : Jack Bauer becomes a quadraplegic and Chloe has to do his fieldwork.
Then halfway during the season the President decided that the only way to save the day is to reinstate Jack, so they give him gene-therapy (stemcells and the like).
He starts walking again in the next 2 episodes and kills everybody at the end of the season by roundkicking them in the nuts.
