Thus Passes 24
All right, kids, it's time for an experiment in liveblogging. Rachel suggested that I try my turn at commenting on a 24 episode as it happens, much like the famous and funny Dave Barry has done in recent seasons. Well, I've enlisted the help of my roommate, Josh, and we're going to do just that tonight. Consider this a test. If it works out well, perhaps we'll keep doing it. If you're reading this while 24 is on, be sure to keep refreshing to get the goods.
UPDATE: We'd better get some graphic violence tonight!
UPDATE: How much do you want to bet Buchanan hides Chloe behind one of his curtains?
UPDATE: Buchanan's gonna give them a showwwwwwwww!
UPDATE: That guy is totally checking out Chloe's laptop.
UPDATE: What comes after L? BOW! To the face!
UPDATE: Jack just hugged him to death.
UPDATE: The First Boobs just spilled the .. beans?
UPDATE: Chloe can make her own Wi-Fi, Creepy Hotel Bar Man. She also carries a mean machine gun.
UPDATE: The captain isn't Peter Graves. How disappointing. They might need Striker soon, and that guy just realized he's the worst Air Marshal ever.
UPDATE: Mike has something for her. Something to make her feel allllll right.
UPDATE: Chloe is AWESOME! She busted out the Zoltan taser.
UPDATE: The stewardess, er flight attendant, is having the worst day of her life.
UPDATE: "Be careful, Jack. Most things in here don't react well to bullets." Picture that in Sean Connery's Russian accent, and you'll start to be close.
UPDATE: Well, at least they let Buchanan put his shirt back on.
UPDATE: Hass-kisser has had his feelings hurt THREE TIMES in the last hour. Poor guy.
UPDATE: Where's Curtis and Robocop and Audrey? Was the airport that far out??
UPDATE: We love Chloe! We love her taser! We love Chloe's tasers!
UPDATE: The co-pilot did it! In the cabin! With the monkey wrench!!
UPDATE: What he doesn't know is that Jack Bauer could fly this plane with his TEETH.
UPDATE: SOMEbody's sleeping on the First Sofa Bed tonight.
Tune in next time, for Jack Baeur: Airline Pilot, who will land the plane on an island somewhere in the Pacific, looking for this guy.
Nice job guys! Everytime Jack mentioned "the hatch" it really made me think that they were going to crash land on the LOST island...
Fantastic job ya'll! I think Dave Barry would feel jealous. You're gonna steal his thunder! But...quit talking about Chloe's "tasers." I can so see her as a FemBot, can't you? Does that even make any sense? We're just gonna throw every movie and show we love together for a MEGA-show. Hahah!
Nice one!
I like to keep track of how often someone in the show says "We're 7 minutes away" or "I'll be there in 19 minutes" and it's always exact. That's some good editing.
Thanks, you guys. I'm glad you enjoyed it as much as we enjoyed Chloe's tasers. And Daryl, good point... I've always taken for granted that the real-time aspect of the show works out, and it's good to know it does. Even though they've been shaving off 3-5 minutes of the show during the commercial break, so it doesn't line up to the overall hour like it used to.
