Summary: Innovative, Action-Packed, Suspenseful! WOW!!
Review: "Right now terrorists are plotting to assassinate a presidential candidate, my wife and daughter have been kidnapped and the people that I work with may be involved in both. I'm federal agent Jack Bauer and this is the longest day of my life." Kiefer Sutherland, as agent Bauer, opens each episode of "24 - Season One" with these lines, which accurately describe the plot of this action-packed thriller. Each hour-long episode represents 60 minutes in a 24 hour period, beginning at 12:00am and ending at 12:00pm - thus the title "24." The real-time storyline is extremely innovative, the cast performance is superb, as is the script. And the suspense and quick pace will take your breath away. If you missed segments of the 1st season, and/or just love the series and want to be able to see it again and again, then the DVD is a terrific buy!

I don't watch much television and so missed the first season completely. I had heard friends rave about this series and decided to rent the first DVD. I never looked back! Excellent! ENJOY!

Summary: I wasted '24' hours I'll never get back
Review: To say i feel like my intelligence was insulted would be the greatest understatement possible. This was a great (COPIED) idea (a drama occurring in real time) that went wrecklessly awry. Sutherlands talents were abused by terrible editing, directing, and a convoluted story line that read more like the never ending 3rd world soap opera. I rented the entire DVD series, and skipped about every other disk in order to keep my sanity. It wasn't difficult to determine who the traitor was within 30 minutes of the first installment. This series portrays the intelligence community like the 3 stooges, and the criminals like the masterminds (Do we really need more of that?) In addition, if Jack Bauer's daughter was truly that stupid, for God's sake, let the bad guys keep her. Dennis Hopper turned in a strong performance, possibly being the single saving grace of the entire catastrophe. The 'Senator' was the only character who drew any respect from me at all. Before emotionally investing in the characters of '24' try watching "Nick of Time" (Starring Johnny Depp). Nick of Time was released in 1995 and is eerily similar...hmmmm *scratches chin* Well, anyway, if 'Nick of Time' gets you all excited, then by all means '24' may be the kind of movie for you.

Summary: Wonderful
Review: This has got to be one of the best seasons for a series ever. Obviously I haven't seen everything, but from what I have this is the best. The story line, producing, acting, character interaction and, above all else, its unpredictability make this a top notch series. From the first few minutes to the very end you are sucked in, drawn in by the suspense that keeps you on the edge of your seat.

Ever watch a movie or a series and want more? Well this is like a 24 hour movie. Just great. There isn't one episode that is boring. If there is one series to watch, make it 24.

Summary: One WILD ride--pulls you right in.
Review: Ever the skeptics, we started watching 24 at the beginning of Season 4 (the current one), and after just 15 minutes into the 2-hour premiere, both my husband and I were HOOKED! We then decided to get Seasons 1-3 and check them out. Season 1 does NOT disappoint - great escapism television, and a story that will keep you on the edge of your seat from hour to hour. Whoever had the idea to cast Kiefer Sutherland as Jack Bauer was definitely on the right page--Kiefer IS Jack Bauer. We can't wait to get into Seasons 2 and 3. This is a great story that entertains, makes you think, and leaves you cheering for the good guys. Go ahead and check it out - we guarantee you can't stop watching after just one episode. If you're looking for something really different, this is a definite must-see.

Summary: WOW!!! Best TV in years!
Review: (See above for the show synopsis)
I never saw a single episode of this show on TV; I can't commit to 24 episodes of any show - I just know I'll miss a few. And on top of that, I'm not a fan of Keifer Sutherland either, so this was a no go for me from the start. And the show didn't sound like anything particularly original...
Wow - have I been missing out. After nagging from my friends, I borrowed series 1, and literally, I was gripped from the first hour (episode). This is without a doubt, one of the most exciting and addictive shows I have seen in years! The acting from all is superb, and there are so many twists and turns you are so anxious to watch the next episode, desperate to know what happens next.
Brilliantly written and superbly put together, I defy anyone NOT to be thoroughly impressed.
As for the extras, there is an alternate ending which is inferior to the actual ending.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Brilliant... Watch This On DVD & Try To Stop.......
Review: Rivetting and a masterpiece.

I love programmes like The Soprano's, Deadwood, Nip & Tuck and find them all fabulous in their own way.

This is slightly more stomach churning, twist a minute stuff.

Summary: Greatest Series Ever
Review: What a show!!! I was advised to start watching season 4, about the sixth episode, and became hooked. From there, I wanted to see what came before. And the journey began.....

What followed was a marathon weekend of watching the season. You can never take a break, there's no telling what you might miss. This is a series that is so great, I won't even put in anything about the show that I liked or disliked, I don't want to ruin any part of it by saying anything that happened!! My advice is to watch, it's well worth it.

The cast is strong, they all play their parts well. But above and beyond all is Kiefer Sutherland - this is the role he was born for, he deserves every honor he will get for this show. Jack is strong, sensitive, loving, and devoted - all things that make his day so difficult. Kiefer plays all of this well, and is incredibly strong in the series.

I got all three seasons, and can't wait to dive into 2 and 3. A great series all the way through, highly recommended!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amazing thriller
