Please don't discuss "24" with me

According to my sources, he’s going to wake up after the last commercial of the last episode in bed with Suzanne Pleshette.

Suzanne Pleshette has rabies?!? That’s a damn shame. I mean, sure we haven’t seen the show, but Suzanne Pleshette getting rabies from Keifer Sutherland’s dog seems a bit out there.

Or maybe it was supposed to be rubies. That would make more sense.

No, no, Suzanne Pleshette is playing center for the Jayhawks. Jesus, don’t you listen? :smiley:

When did Jesus join the club?

Uncle Beer, I apologize for my inappropriate comportment today, and thank you for your merciful adjudication of this matter which is undeserved by me.

Astorian, sorry I said mean things about you.

BTW, I honestly did not know that you can’t cuss in this forum.

Cursing is okay. Within limits. Calling others names, whether you use curse words or not, is most definitely not okay. That’s the distinction to be made. Now, go forth and sin no more, grasshopper.

Our mascot is the ostrich!

That sounds good. Where’s our F.N.G. to get us all a round of grasshoppers?

Montfort! Beverages!

Award Notice, which carries with it honorary membership.

24 Club members (honorary and otherwise) are henceforth directed to celebrate the awarding of our first medal with the consumption of alcohol.

Though it does dawn on me that at this rate, the non-dues-paying membership will outnumber the actual membership before the latter even get to see the show. :slight_smile:

Unless I have miscalculated badly somewhere, tonight should finish off tape 3. That makes it, what, 5:00 - 6:00 p.m.?

Yuppers. Tonight is 5:00-6:00pm.

Are we taking bets on whether or not astorian will post another spoiler for us this week? I’ll give 4:1 odds.

[this is not bashing, this his poking fun at]
Actually, I half expected The Poster Who’s Name Shall No Longer Be Mentioned In This Thread (or did you forget?) to show up in the “all questions” thread in MPSIMS and post a declamatory statement. In three words. :slight_smile:
[see, I :)d and everything]

So we’re in the home stretch. The earliest the last tape could be in the can is 5/14.

Are y’all going to watch it in one uninterrupted 24-athon? You get to drink vodka in the 4-5PM hour.

Yes. My plan is still to fast forward through commercials so as to have three breaks during the 24 hours, one each before 6:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m., and 6:00 p.m. This will allow time for semi-normal food intake, potty trips, and perhaps some posting as to my progress in watching.

Keep in mind, I still reserve the option to simply not watch if I start hearing reviews to the effect of what a great show 24 started out to be and what a letdown it was in the end. Life’s too short for that, even for just one day. :slight_smile:

Whoa-ho-ho there lil doggie. If I may be so brash: as dictator for life you invite a symbolic revolution and execution by even uttering such talk.

It would have to fall off a lot to stop being worthwhile. No need to set the price on your head just yet. Great TV on tap tonight!

The key word in any if … then statement is, of course, if. :slight_smile:

If the show keeps on getting good reviews, then obviously, there will be no problem. If I hear a reputable reviewer whom I trust start talking about what a shame it is it hasn’t lived up to its promise, then … maybe I don’t bother.

Blasphemer!

Billy, I hereby charge you with an order to countermand every poor review of “24” with 3 good reviews of “24”, so as to render this utterance of blasphemy void.

Now I know how Brian felt, but in reverse. :smiley:

Where’s the love, guys? I’m still the same ol’ dictator. I don’t have any plans to put this contingency operation into effect, and even if I did, I’d still send the tapes to Montfort. Everything I’ve heard about the show has kept me fired up through the first 18 hours, and it’s gonna take some pretty harsh press to quench that. I’m not talking last-season-of-Seinfeld harsh here. I’m talking AfterMASH harsh … Elimidate harsh … dare I say it, Michael Richards Show harsh.

So, you see, it’s not likely. :slight_smile:

I have no idea what you’re talking about. But see, you continue to blaspheme, albeit in the subjunctive. Better hire a food taster.
