12:00 p.m. - 1:00 p.m.
the Araz family storyline still leaves me cold (except for the mom; she's now turning back into a normal human being. i like where this is going), but i've turned around for the new Behrooz line.
what an exciting episode! shit. apart from the aforementioned 'middle eastern family' bullshit, i realized with last night's episode that i'm fully invested in this season of 24. finally! and it feels great to be back after the insipid third season. kudos to the writers for making me fully care once again.
Jon Cassar knows how to direct. the entire first act, with the bunker rescue, was pure adrenaline genius. Jack, with only ten minutes to spare, actually goes in the bunker against an impending missile strike, kills as many would-be terrorists, saves Secretary Heller and Audrey with 2 minutes left to spare. lol. Jack rocks. and congrats to the writers and Kiefer for making this believable.
and for once, i care more about one of Jack's girlfriends making it through the day so we can see her again in the next season. Kim fuckin' rocks (Raver, not the bastard child in crisis). btw, how the hell can they make me cry when Audrey pulls out the blade and is about to stick it in her kidnapper? how the hell do they do that?? it's not sad or devastating, but it was damn moving, i'll tell you that.
sour notes: how the hell does the DOD move a part as crucial as _ and a fuckin' mole. saving grace -- Aisha Tyler doesn't seem to be playing it crazy or as a lunatic. thank god for that.
