Agreed. I've always been a huge Elisha fan but I also thought she looked pretty rough last night.They showed a close up shot and I'm thinking, "When did she turn 35 years old?"
Elisha is on Kimmel tonight. I hope she has rediscovered the fountain of youth. I was slightly depressed to see how she had aged during the last episode of 24. Of course maybe the source of my depression was I still knew she would never give me the time of the day.d'oh!

Am I the only one who is completely confused by this entire season - i barely have any idea what's going on
Don't think, just go with it. It's waaaaay better that way. Picking out plot holes and trying to figure Tony out is only going to lead to misery, but naivete works great for this season.

I'm pretty sure the leader of the bad guys phone conference was the other coach from Remember the Titans. The one that gets replaced when Denzel shows up and then rehired as defensive coordinator.

Yeah, I almost forget that the season started out with Jack almost killing that important African politician. This season has had flashes of awesomeness (the White House siege, and Chloe is back and ruder than ever!), and flashes or retardedness (Jack firing at police officers, Tony being a bad guy good guy bad guy good guy bad guy (why didn't he just stay bad? i'm not sure I get it).

Geez, and I thought it was General Bethlehem from The Postman.

ya, it's going to be interesting to see whether Tony is good or bad and if how he approached the day made sense to his end game (I'm not really holding my breath for logical here)another thing. I've talked about how 24 must have helped Obama get a few votes from having a black president on the show. If people end up liking the lady president (I'm kind of undecided right now...same with Captain Janeway) you think Hillary still has a chance?

I knew he looked familiar.

she wouldn't be able to run until 2016 which would make her 69

it's actually kind of funny how they pay her to be there and voice her beliefs but make her agree with jack without so much as a sliver of a reasonable argument"this is racial profiling!""shut up whore!""ok"

This president sucks ass!
Agreed! President Cerrano and Jobu never would have stood for some of the stuff she's done.

It's a tribute to the fact that every other season has been so great. I know people were down on the last season, but I actually kind of liked it. At it's worst, it was no where near as bad as this season has been at times. The stuff with Tony is just god-awful. I understand him being pretty pissed off about Michelle dying, but his transformation to amoral bad guy in this season, doesn't really fit the Tony we knew from the first few seasons.Sadly, I feared for this season from the first episode. I have a friend who's a big fan of Star Trek: Next Generation and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, but hates Voyager. He lays the blame for the downfall of Star Trek at the feet of a man named Brannon Braga who was heavily involved in the production and storylines of Star Trek: Voyager. This year, Braga is contributing heavily to the downfall of what has been one of the greatest shows in Television history.

Did he decide on a female captain?If so, then did he also decide on a female president?Your friend is potentially onto something.

From Simmons' column Today:Continuing the Jack Bauer and Dwyane Wade parallels, "24" is falling apart as fast as Wade's MVP campaign and postseason did. I actually fell asleep during Monday night's episode. I do not normally fall asleep during TV shows that I enjoy. This season's writing staff threw a phenomenal 6 2/3 innings and completely ran out of gas. To paraphrase Jack, "Tell me what happened to the good ideas!!! TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED TO THE GOOD IDEAS!!!!

if tony turns out to be good - that would be ludicrous
I was thinking about that (ridiculous) possibility, but the thing is that he murdered Mr. FBI (forget his name). I am however afraid that it's gonna turn out that Tony is secretly working for some goal other than that of his pseudo-terrorist pals, but that he's still not exactly a hero because of all the awful things he has done. But again, he straight murdered Mr. FBI - I don't see how that can be reconciled. Either way, 8 to 1 that Tony finally dies for real this season.

Jack told Chloe that he could live for "one or two more days." My first thought was "one or two more seasons."
that's true...they could put Jack into Darth Vader gear and have the medicine feed directly into him. or maybe a robocop-type thing!
