Season 8 Overall Review
Wrapping up Season 8 and what seemed to be a wrap to the series...Key plot pointsChloe’s rise through CTUChloe at CTU is often not ideal this season: setting it up that she works there only because she has no choice, the perception at the beginning of the season that Dana is really smart but it’s because Chloe is made to seem more incompetentShe’s often really great though: her debrief with Renee is so good, as is her threatening Frank HaynamIt’s insane that she goes from being the unwanted staff, to being de facto lead on the floor, to being interim director in the space of 17 hoursChloe as director doesn’t work because so much of the reason we love her is her loyalty to Jack and her seeing beyond the bureaucracy to do what she knows is rightAs director she loses a lot of that - see trying to capture Jack instead of helping him get to Dana - and while her shift back to exposing the Russians is good, it’s still a fairly meh version of ChloeA satisfying end to the series?I certainly remember feeling fairly content with the ending when it first airedReally important that the final 8 episodes were as good as they were because if they had continued like the first two-thirds, it would’ve been a really low point on which to endI’m still firmly in the camp that season 7 (also 4) would’ve been a better ending than this season, but I’m a fan of this oneSeason 8 overallSeason 6 felt tired, as though there was a structure they tried following and there was a monotony to it, and like it needed to take a break to reset (which obviously it got from the writer’s strike)Season 8 feels for so long like they’d run pretty much out of ideas and opted for a lot of repetition in a lot of placesAgain, possibly a bit of the tired factor but also it suffers from an issue where it often feels like the show is trying too hard to surprise viewersDespite the final run this is undoubtedly the second weakest season

Law-breaker or hero [Season 7 Overview]
Key plot pointsJack: law-breaker or hero?This is the most interesting moral debate the show throws upI think this is the best character development season for Jack, as he goes from a bullish pride over his past to having to forgive himself for mistakes made during his career/lifeThrough Jack vs. most everyone else (primarily Larry, Janis and the President) with Renee as the character in the middle the season is utterly fascinating in exploring the way “Do whatever it takes” can impact upon someoneI really like that the show doesn’t go for the “is torture effective?” route, because barbarism has clearly been effective in every other season (see: Jack not pushing Assad’s man far enough) and it’d be silly to retcon thatInstead looking at the impact of it on the torturer is far more watchableJack’s illnessI think this would’ve been a really good way to end the showPerhaps the only thing which falls short is how understated Jack being infected is to begin with - I love the scene in which he finds out the results, but then it’s a bit like “well yeah he’s dying, what did you expect?”Jack and Kim’s scene is GOLDReally sad to see Jack struggle so much throughout the final few episodesJack and Renee’s “15 people on a bus” scene is PLATINUMReally love the interaction between Jack and Imam GoharThe evolution of Renee WalkerThings get off to a shaky start with her - the “Do whatever it takes” at Schector’s is great, but then backing down on it the following episode is notDevelopment after this is superb: she’s dragged into Jack’s world but not fully his mindsetInteresting to see she doesn’t hesitate to interrogate TannerThreatening Vossler’s wife and child clearly bothers her - love her “Tomorrow” thoughMarika’s death is the indication of their differencesLarry’s death breaks her and as a result, her torture of Alan Wilson feels like the inevitable final step for the seasonSeason 7 overallThis would rival season 5 if not for the final six episodesThey’re just so bland, so stereotypical villain plot with Tony as the villain no one believes can actually be a villain, in a villain story that isn’t engagingEverything before that is magnificentIt feels different to the first six seasons but familiar enough; it’s energetic again Not to harp on about season 6, but season 6 felt like it was going through the motions of existence, where season 7 from start to Tony always felt like you needed to sit up and take notice

Tony Turns Against Jack [Season 7 Episodes 13-18]
Key plot pointsBill’s deathThis is so sad - saddest death? Up there (alts: Mason? Edgar)Ends a nice mini-circle for Bill, who an hour ago told Jack he couldn’t question Burnett - in a way he’s responsible, about ten minutes pass between that and Larry’s call - so to sacrifice himself to save the President is greatThe bioweapon arrivesThis is a very quick shift into the next threat - again with the relentlessnessOnce again, Jack putting a civilian in harm’s way expecting them to behave as they were going to before meeting themAdmire the fact that Jack has no hesitation in stopping the leak once he notices itOlivia v EthanThis antagonistic attitude between them from the get-go is a bit madWe learn almost instantly what Olivia is and see it in action very quickly afterShe is fairly narcissistic; does she not realise her mother is the world’s most powerful person? She doesn’t need to try and make a power grab (Tony in S4: “I don’t need to establish position. I’ve already got it”)Ethan is right to resignHer blackmailing of Ken is incredible, particularly given that she got herself out of a hole she dugHodges’ ultimatumIs he the most deranged villain the show has had?The bioweapon being loaded onto the missiles makes it an entirely pointless threat - why not just use missiles?Do enjoy the tension of it all thoughAnd also the air of confidence about Taylor when Hodges is arrestedThe Tony twistThe scene itself is fine at best, it sets up where the only outcome is the one that happens or Galvez kills both Tony and Larry - and quite frankly the show was never going to have such a major character killed by such a nobodyIt feels like a very 24 twist in that he’s done plenty of good and “he’s changed” type stuff - Jack even speaks to Taylor about taking his positive actions into account 30 mins before - and then thisI suppose at least he was on the other side of the law before S7

Season 6 Wrap-up and Redemption
Bradley and Joel discuss some of the over-arching themes throughout Season 6 - what worked and what didn't. We also discuss 24: Redemption, the 2-hour TV movie that sets up the scene for Season 7.Key plot pointsRacial politicsClear picture of the season inside the opening four minutes: Middle Eastern man eyeballed with suspicion on his way to work and denied access to a bus, only for an East Asian man to blow it up; cut to the Oval Office crew arguing over Tom’s detention facilities and the restrictions of freedomsThe Walid facility stuff highlights their pointlessness and leads to Wayne rejecting the proposals - fine - but then the show just kind of forgets its stance? Nadia’s denied access and it’s just like *shrugs* - until Bill leaves, then he sorts the issue with no fuss“And yeah, she is a Muslim. That’s enough to go on. Everyone here is thinking it, even if they won’t say it.”But then Doyle is also a reader of anything religious??!??!?!?!?!?!?Assad being framed for Palmer’s assassination attempt is again abysmal; presumably Daniels looks at America as being almost all white and just a handful of other ethnicities2007: about 65% of USA was white (non-hispanic)Yet attempts to rally what I’ll loosely define as “his people” against what I’ll loosely define as “them” by pinning the murder on Assad (not to mention threatening Tom to get him to support this)Nukes don’t matter, apparently24 created a seismic moment when detonating a bomb to kill 12,000 people but it also meant it played all its cards four episodes inYou can’t explode another bomb because a) as everyone says, it would ruin the country forever; b) 24 isn’t interested in fallout and cleanup and recovery - it’s only interested in the drama of the here and now (this isn’t a bad thing per se)None of the other bombs ever feel like a threat:The one Jack disarms, who cares?Five minutes pass and Jack doesn’t even remove his shotgun until the act returnsThe metal plates move twice in 11 seconds but I guess they hadn’t moved in the five minutes before? These also seem to move more quickly the closer to the potential blast we getThe tension is completely false because Jack isn’t going to die in a nuclear explosionIf this bomb goes off, Fayed’s chopper absolutely doesn’t survive it There are 5 nukes that pose a grave threat to the US: this is one, and it doesn’t even get mentioned in the previously in 2-3pmWe spend 4-7pm with no danger from the bombs because they’re getting the parts for and assembling the drones, then the drone one is stopped fairly easily (again no tension)The last two obviously never get used but Fayed’s line ““We’re going to take out Downtown Los Angeles” is so bad, so emptyMarilyn BauerThe romantic tension between them begins the moment they first share a frame, and never endsJack finds out about Audrey from Marilyn because there’s a hint they could hook up now Graem’s gone, *six hours* after his deathThis is just… so horrible? Every single momentRena Sofer is incredibly wooden (The Bold and the Beautiful)Season 6 overallBADRedemptionThis is really good?The real time concept is broken with the pre-title...

Manny Coto and Evan Katz Interview
24 Legacy: Manny and Evan Welcome to 24 Faithful, the unofficial podcast for Fox’s show 24. My name is Joshua Rivers and I am your host. In the last episode, Mark Sieverkropp and Bradley Adams joined me to discuss some things about the upcoming 24: Legacy season. We are less than a week from this airing, and we will be back next week to cover the first two episodes, so make sure to stay tuned and be ready to share your thoughts and reactions as well. In the last episode of the podcast, we also mentioned a new partner, TVShow Time from Whipclips. It’s an awesome app that does several things. First of all, you find the shows that you are currently watching, or even shows that you have already watched. You can mark the episodes and seasons that you have seen. Then you can also get involved in some discussions with others that love the show as well. They are starting to integrate certain podcasts into the app as well, and that’s where we come in! Be sure to check out the TVShow Time app and join the discussion there. You can go to 24faithful.com/tvshowtime. Another awesome part of this partnership is that Whipclips has connections to the TV show networks. As a result, they can get exclusive interviews with the showrunners and other crew members. Today we are sharing one such interview. They were able to interview Manny Coto and Evan Katz. They are both producers and writers for the show and share some personal insights about the show’s past and future.
