Damn, looks like I missed that one too!

24-S3 1pm-3pm
WOW, what a start to season 3 of 24, I know most of you have already seen this season but I haven’t so I was excited, first of all Kim is working at CTU, secondly Palmer is alive and 3 years have pasted and jack a drug addict as result of being undercover, Tony married to other CTU lady. All of this had to be taken in the first episode, it makes you wonder what other 23 episode have left, seriously I mean cram that much information into an episode is quite impressive, don’t you think. So I’m glad they made Kim a part CTU, I think that good last 2 seasons why she keep on being quite annoying and I think this season I might be able to stand her. I’m not quite sure what I think of Chase Kim new boyfriend.

The plot this time is biological weapon that kill 9% of population, quite a scary thought isn’t but I think this might be a good plot, still the guy has no-idea he carry the weapon, he think it’s drugs and I can understand it, he needed the money for his family. I don’t like new aide to Palmer he seem slightly slimy for my liking. The Mexicans well why do I suspect that women going to help Americans take-down her husband, I mean she seems like quite a feisty women and she angry over how her husband treats her father, it’s really going to be interesting.

The second episode, well this one slightly more interesting I thought I mean now set up the plot all they have to now is to see where it goes, I will start with Palmer, I like his new girlfriend, I mean defiantly better then Sherry, she seem like a nice women just hope she doesn’t back-stab him. He deserves some happiness after what he has been through over past few years.

Kim telling her dad about Chase, I understand that jack want to protect his daughter and he right you can’t have a love life and be a CTU agent, still that’s some good advice I think he made the right decision about leaving chase behind, actually my first thought would be that he might try to get Chase killed but instead he going try to protect him. That really going annoy him isn’t it, will he break up with Kim? We will just have to wait and see. What a brilliant cliffhanger the terrorist is working for CTU.

I too am a first time watcher.

Was impressed with this episode (and how many cast members I could identify. Vanessa Ferlito was great on CSI:NY and is great on this too.) but don't have much of an opinion. Not up there with Season 1, but I'm sure it will get better.

Wow, she looks so diffrent on 24

I know. It's like they are 2 completely different characters. Well, they are but you get what I mean

I might watch the 24 S3 repeat on Weds. Forgot it last night!

it's on tonight as well on too late 1:50am

That's too late for me, definitely.

Ohh....just realised tomorrow's repeats clash with 'Lost' on E4.......wonder if I can wait until Sunday to see Lost? Hmm, I'll find out tomorrow night

Jake 2.0, please tell me I wasn’t the only one that thought this episode was predictable I mean I knew that Chinese women would betray that agent and I knew Jake had to save the day mainly because there were computer control in place. Despite the lack of originality I got to say I was impressed when they used Jake night vision ability, I actually forgot about that until that happened. I like title sequence and they added all cast finally.

Tru calling- Wow I liked this episode-u would think having a female in lead would mean some male-bashing but no they decided to put tru brother girlfriend into killing her ex-husband, that pure brilliant from my point of view. You expect that ex-husband was bad guy but he turned out into a good guy. Those you recognises actor he Mike from Desperate Housewives. It took me a while to figure that out because I was wondering where I saw him before. I’m really enjoying this series. I still have no idea why this show got cancelled can’t wait for next week.

Actually, it wasn't James Denton it was somebody called Joe Flanigan but they looked very alike.

I posted a review over at TV.com and it's disappeared. As soon as it reappears, I'll post it here

oh but i swear i seen him before

well i finally put face to tv show-he stars in Atlantis

Is there supposed to be some sex appeal with Harrison in this show? Because I really don't see it.

This week, Tru faces the thought of being alone for the rest of her life when Harrison is accused of murder. Fortunately, Tru gets a chance to relive the day and discovers that Harrison's new squeeze will do anything for money.

I think that Shawn Reeves is a pretty good actor, despite the fact that TC is his first TV acting gig. His scenes with Tru and Sarah were performed well and he proved that he can portray every type of emotion tonight. Tonight, we got some development on his character and we learnt that Harrison will always stick with who he thinks is right.

But tonight, he picked the wrong person and chose not to believe Tru when she warns him that his new squeeze - Sarah - is separated from her husband, Andrew. At first it seems like Andrew is in the wrong, but he reveals that Sarah married him for money.

Tru manages to get Andrew on her side and this annoys me for the following reason. Tru convinces Andrew to wear a bullet-proof vest and I know that if I were a rich guy living on a yacht, I'd want to be careful around a suspicious stranger. I hope that in future episodes, less people listen to Tru as this would give the show more realism (although the show isn't too realistic to start off with).

I liked that the Death of the Week hit Tru in a personal way, instead of it being a complete stranger. Tru's speech to Harrison about losing her family members really made me feel for her character and made me realise that Tru has really gone through a lot of suffering in her life. And despite the fact that Andrew was a jerk, I saw more chemistry between him and Tru than Harrison and Sarah. In fact, I saw more chemistry than Tru and the fireman from last week.

There was a good use of Meredith tonight, a character who I am realy beginning to like. But two characters who are remaining very much in the background are Lindsay and Davis. I hope that in episodes to come, the writers will find more to do with these potentially fascinating characters (although I doubt Lindsay will turn out this way).

Overall, there was some good acting tonight and a good death of the week. I found this to be one of the best episodes of the season.

GRADE: A*

But obvious i expect the same standard everytime so you put yourself on that standard i had nothing to compare it to. i think i was a bit genious with that grade i move down to an A.

Seriously- well it would be cruel if i was lying but i'm not i enjoy reading it. i still have read One tree Hill review on OC place but overall look it look like a bullet points .

Yay, nice to know someone missed me

I'd like to say I've been off having an extremely interesting life, but sadly it was just NTL being poopful.

i have a good memory

You'll like this...

I had an ntl cable modem and phone, a couple of months ago I switched to Bulldog because of an intermittent fault that ntl couldn't fix.

A week after I'd disconnected from ntl they sent me a letter warning me that my downloading was well in excess of the 30GB pcm limit and threatening to cap my download rate or somesuch.

A month after that they sent me another letter thanking me for reducing my downloading

They've said they'll continue to monitor me...but I'm not too worried

Apparenlty they're increasing the download rate to 10Mbps and the monthly limit to 75GB. So if you download flat-out for 17 hours you've exceeded your month;y allowance.

So what's the point in having 10Mbps? Oh right, looks good on the adverts...

With Bulldog there's no download limit, I'm sure the same's true of some other ISP's. It's time ntl wised up.

i'm using homecall it's unlimited but i notice download certain thing it takes longer. download free anti-virus was fast but downloading new version of browser it took ages i just gave up

I only went back to NTL because they made it irresistably cheap, and I couldn't be bothered to change my phoneline and TV provider as well.
