Damn, Jack!‏

So, I apologize for not emailing you guys earlier. I've been so disinterested in 24 these past few weeks that I actually waited until Tuesday night to watch this week's episode. And maybe it's my lowered expectations, or the return of Keifer as star of the show, but I actually thought this week's episode was pretty good. The ratio of 50% over-the-top Keifer, 25% CTU absurdity and 25% Presidential nonsense worked this week. I still have absolutely no interest in anything going on at CTU. I thought the ol' switcheroo with Fayed was pretty obvious (especially after they "killed" Jack), but the joy of seeing Jack ride under a garbage truck and the glee on his face as his hung Fayed from the chains (and his parting words) was glorious. And his confrontation with the terrorists (still from parts unknown, of course) was the perfect ridiculousness I expect from 24. The best thing I can say about 24 this season is that they've had two really good reveals at the end of episodes: first with Logan (where is he?) and now with Audrey. (Side Note: Why would the Chinese ever give her up? She's gotta be the ideal political prisoner: she'd crack real easy under pressure, she's the daughter of a prominent politician and she's a member of the U.S. Department of Defense.) Those Chinese have great timing though, right? Last season grabbing Jack just as he's about to be reunited with Audrey and now having Audrey call Jack just as he saves L.A.
