Comment: The first five seasons of 24 are the best thriller/escapism you'll find on television. It's fast-paced, big-budgeted, over-the-top (sometimes WAAAAAAAY over-the-top), and mostly clever. But I don't think ANY of the previous seasons (or the lame season 6) can come even close to the excitment and joy of watching this fifth season. Yes this season follows the same (tired) gimick of everything happening in real-time, but what set this season apart for me was it's more focusd plot-line. Several of lead character Jack Bauer's friends are killed or attacked and he's out to find out who and get revenge. Ok, sometimes the overall story arch DOES get side-tracked to the typical (terrorists trying to release poisonous gas), and sometimes it's not always that interesting (CTU gets infiltrated AGAIN!). But none of these side-attractions even BEGIN to take-away from the exciting central story which pushes along at break-neck speed and crediblilty (thanks also to the believable performances of the ENTIRE cast). Like some people I try not to watch the show on TV and much prefer to wait for the DVD to come out which is why I can't recommend buying this season enough (thought why there's not subtitles on every episode is beyond me). Yes it's a couple years old now, but it's still the best (and most affordable) 24 episodes of action you'll find anywhere. Customer Rating: Summary: Best Season of 24 Comment: Everyone is now familiar with the adventures of Jack Bauer and the Los Angeles Counter Terrorist Unit (CTU), particularly how each season chronicles the events which unfold hour after hour in a single day of Jack's life. Having watched all the seasons, I dare say that Season 5 is the most engaging and exciting. There are various plot twists and by now, the characters are very comfortable in their roles and the viewers can associate with them. This seasons carries on from Season 4 so it is best watched only after you've understood what happened in the previous season. While you can pick things up along the way, it's more tricky without the background. I really enjoyed Season 5 (I think Season 6 was a little silly) and hope that Jack comes back strong in Season 7. Hope it keeps you at the edge of your seat, as it did for me! Customer Rating: Summary: Pretty Good, But Hilariously Impossible! Comment: Well its no shocker that David Palmer was assassinated. It was everything else that will have your head spinning. Everyone was a suspect in this season. And Jack seemed to be the overly invincible superman in this season. I mean, he is in every season, but his trials seem to be overwhelmingly challenging this season. The White House is infiltrated, but every time you think its one person, it turns out to be someone. And CTU gets attacked....again!! Seems to me that everything in this government unit gets easier to access every season. LOL Any and everyone can get in and out of this place with no problem. Maybe its time that CTU up the security protocol; the world will NEVER be safe if this place doesn't get better at protecting the people and their office! A lot of very phony points are seen in this season, but you have to watch it because you are a fan of the show. Is it good? Yes. Easy to watch? Definitely! Yet laughable. And a bit predictable as it went along. If it wasn't for the great acting on everyone's part, this season might have died within the first 10 episodes. Not at its best, but still not the worst. Customer Rating: Summary: Jack is always good Comment: 24 is such a good series -- it is so exciting! And you NEVER know what is going to happen. I like the fact that Jack always tries to do right even at his own personal cost. I think that is what I like best about 24. Customer Rating: Summary: 24 - Season Five Comment: Delivery was real fast. It was a gift so I cannot rate quality. Price was decent.

Customer Rating: Summary: 24 - Season Five Comment: Delivery was real fast. It was a gift so I cannot rate quality. Price was decent. Eighteen months after faking his own death, Jack Bauer is forced to return to Los Angeles when it becomes apparent that the only four people who know he is still alive are being systemically targeted for assassination. The assassinations coincide with the signing of an anti-terrorism treaty between Russia and the U.S., leading Jack to suspect a link between the assassinations, the treaty, and a group of Russian terrorists. But as events slowly unfold it becomes apparent that the day's horrific events were originally set in motion by someone within our country's own administration – an individual with the power and resources to thwart Jack's every move.
