Good opener, very much more of the same but that's not a bad thing. A bit unrealistic to think people could fire guns and RPGs in the middle of London without causing the police to turn up. Plus all the Brits so far have either been yank-standard "bloody hell" chirpy cockneys or upper-class relatives of the Queen types but still, enjoying it so far. Stephen Fry has been great as expected :)

Still sounds like that bloke off of Touch tho ;)
Just watched "Jack is back" s09e00 looks promising but..........
Opening 5 mins wasn't as flowing as you would expect from 24. Sutherland looks very rusty in the choreographed fight scenes.
Small additional cut scenes looked more like padding.
Crowd shots in the market you could see some of the extras (stall holders) eyeballing the "cast members" and camera. Didn't see that in any of the first 8 seasons, maybe it's us Brits that ain't used to being in high profile tv series even if only for a fleeting moment.
Nice to see some of the old faces from earlier seasons and other appreciated tv shows.

I still don't understand how Ross McCall gets cast as a US national as his accent really is crap. That husky Bronx'ish dialect he portrays in everything he is in really is quite bad IMO.
Oh and he still says "dam it" lol.

What the hell was that '12 hours later' rubbish in the last epsiode? Have they forgotten how the show works?

They said from the beginning that they'd show the most important hours. Although I wish it was more spread out rather than doing it the way that they did. That time jump was pointless and could of happened 10 minutes later, nevermind 12 hours.

I have only watched 4 episodes. Whilst I am a fan of the first 8 seasons this one has been dire.

That was the last epuisode of the season too. They should have renamed the show "12: Live Half a Day"

They should have stopped making them about 2 seasons ago.

It was good, not the best, but still classic Jack Bauer and I for one will be watching the next season.

How can you have a Bourne movie without Jason Bourne ? But they did it anyway.

How can you have Taggart with out Taggart? It ran for years without him.

24 can go on. Although it may not be as good.

I am getting really excited about this, I loved 24 when it was on. I hope it is just as good in the absence of Jack Bauer
