Skeletons

As to this week's episode...I felt like I things to say on Monday night,but they were just to make fun of the show some more, so I decided against emailing you guys. But now that I have... So how long before Curtis shows up at Buchanan's house? You think next season they'll set up CTU out of his house with Chloe working off of the stolen laptop? The security can't be any worse than the security attheir former headquarters. Do you think it's easier for a terrorist to get into or for a prisonerto get out of a government building? Because this year we've seen both, and they didn't make either look terribly difficult. How long will it take Jack to realize that the only person he can evertrust is himself? (Well, maybe Tony and President Palmer, but those ships have sailed.) He can't even trust stupid Audrey because she is too damntrusting herself. From the moment I first saw that ever-present frown on William Devane's face, I knew they were barking up the wrong tree. My TV was giving off steam during the scene between Aaron and Mrs.Logan. Why did they meet outside? You know all they both wanted is to run tothe bedroom...and Gregory Itzin and Jean Smart should never kiss. Is there a name for the opposite of an aphrodisiac?

Wishy-Washy Cyborgs‏

Ok, I'm convinced...I wasn't always sure and I went back and forth, but if President Logan is the mastermind of this whole shebang, then you can add Gregory Itzin to the short list of quality actors on 24. I thought he was a baddie last season, and felt embarrassment that I could have been so wrong. Now I feel vindicated. So expect a huge pat on the back when it is revealed that Peter Weller is actually a cyborg. By the by, the hot rumor of the week is that Audrey won't survive the day. Because they just can't stop the killing.

I don't know what the terrorist threat is - I think the threat actually lies in the minds' of the writers. They have reached the part of the season where they don't know what to do. They know where they wanted to start and where they want to end up, but at times they get a little confused as to how they will get there. You know, there was Teri Bauer's amnesia, the infamous cougar/bomb shelter/survivalist crazy man, Chase's baby, the list goes on. We have the shock of Logan's multi-plicitous nature to sustain us until they take us into the home stretch, i.e. when an accented Dennis Hopper shows up to cause mischief.
