24 Rantings

[catch22girl]

Spoilers for 24 (obviously).

Further proof this show LOVES to screw with my mind. All I could think during the Russian Roulette scene was 'Pusher'. Although, Jack's reaction was a little different. I thought for a moment that he was going to offer to pull the trigger for the guy. Really well done though, even if it wasn't quite the kind of fun I thought the prisoners were going to try to have.

Also, violent content? Were they referring to Tony's surgery? Because *eeeek*, bloody and horrible. I cried. Poor Michelle. So well played.

So, does Adam really like Kim? Because I'm sensing something there. Kim/Adam is gonna happen before the end of the season, 'specially when she finds out how long Chase has known about the drug addiction.

Speaking of which grrrr previews ruining that lovely moment of Chloe's discovery! Still, her entirely passive agressive way of telling Kim was just great. It's like, here's the one character who isn't going to break the news lightly. I loved how she threw in protocol.

So if the russian roulette scene was 'Pusher', would that make Chase Scully? Something to ponder.

I need to rewatch this episode. I have to admit I have respect for Kyle after he tried to kill himself...because at least that's trying to save people and pretty brave too. I'm just wondering what's gonna happen next now that they have Kyle and it seems that the first main plot is over.

Oh, I loved Kim in this, don't care what anyone says.

Also, judging from next week's previews, it's another episode where Palmer has to balance love and duty. *hee* Oh not Anne. Although, I loved how these last four eps have been leading up to this HUGE debate and then they show us about a minute of it.

I hate to say it, but if I was in the public and my President had been married to Sherry...welllll.

I sorta see Keeler's point more...but, it still doesn't seem horribly important.

Oh and my very sad fangirl moment over Chappelle on the phone, 'cause he's the guy you really love to hate. I'm thinking he and Chloe'd make a good couple. He brings the lockdowns and the CTU angst! 'Course I'm surprised he's still got a job. I need to rewatch this episode, so much happened between the characters. And it went by so fast, I was like, it can't be 9:45 already....

And I loved that Jack couldn't get Chase's message, although I really thought that he was going to shoot Chase, but I don't know why.

Oh! and the PSA. Thanks 24! 'Cause you know playing with guns looked like SO much fun.

I loved Kim too! :D And Adam / Kim was SO going on--it was just *there*.

But Jack / Chase? Yes, yes, and YES. :)

[catch22girl]

It was! The way he looked at her after he heard about the prison riot...like, I was wrong, he's not gay he's just really Jewish. LOL. And nerdy. He's now my little jewish computer nerd ;)

Dude. It just is happening or was happening or whatever. TWU LUB.

Teh wuv! :D

[catch22girl]

Why aren't you MSN? lol. I'm also a Kim/Adam shipper. I've decided. LOL. I mean, yeah okay Chase and Kim are CUTE, but Adam and Kim? SO SO SO cute.

Also, violent content? Were they referring to Tony's surgery?

I think that may have been in reference to the suicide attempt and the Russian roulette. :-)

Oh and my very sad fangirl moment over Chappelle on the phone

And I quote my reaction: "CHAPPELLE! I love you, you crazy fuck!"

Oh! and the PSA. Thanks 24! 'Cause you know playing with guns looked like SO much fun.

I posted this in someone else's comments, too, but it still stands - something like this might have been more effective:
"Hey, kids. I'm Kiefer. Aren't I hot? *grins* Yeah, thanks. Uh, listen, don't play Russian roulette without proper adult supervision. That way Mom and Dad can clean up the mess after you splatter your brains all over the walls. *pause* And, uh, floss. Yeah, floss."

*dies laughing*

::revives you and hands you floss::

[queen-kiwi.livejournal.com]

*flosses for Kiefer*

[wicked-descent.livejournal.com]

Kiefer: "I'll give you something to stick between your teeth . . ."

[queen-kiwi.livejournal.com]

Anything for you, Kiefer. *winks at him*

[catch22girl]

*dies laughing* That's perfect! Okay I'm not the only one to have that reaction to Chappelle -- wheee! And not in a sekrit boyfriend kinda way either. Oh, yeah, well obviously, I just kept thinking that the violence would be connected to Jack in some way. Like the torture scene.

Flossing is good.

[wicked-descent.livejournal.com]

Oh, I was so hoping for another torture scene . . . this time with a nice warning for graphic violence AND NUDITY. Stick him in that isolation chamber and tie him from the bars on the ceiling . . .

[catch22girl]

I kept thinking the prisoners were gonna use torture for some odd reason. I mean they had no real reason, but russian roulette was the best psychological torture they could come up with? Dude, they're just teasing us this season with the shirt changes and all.

I totally went fangirl over hearing Chapelle's voice, too. Which is funny, because I hate Chapelle, but I guess seeing any older character is fun. But gah, where is Aaron!?

And yeah, my respect for Kyle went up, too.

And I cried with Michelle, too. <3 you Reiko!

[catch22girl]

Aaron is hanging out at USC with all the co-eds - woohoo. Same here, such a fangirl. Poor Michelle, she shouldn't do that to herself. Amazing acting though. Too bad he'll probably be dead in the next few hours.
