"24"-the day after

I am still recovering from last night's episode of "24".  Can Anne Wersching be any more hypnotic?  Her eyes, incredible, especially when she told Vladimir how desperately she wanted this "deal" to go on. 

There was a great interview in USAToday, which you can read here, where Wersching talks about how much she relishes playing such a juicy acting role.  Nice picture, too.

I have read elsewhere that other fans of "24" are already tired of the creepy ex-boyfriend storyline involving Dana Walsh from CTU.  We learned a few more tantalizing details from him last night (not only has she changed her name, she spent a stint in jail as an accessory to murder).  However, this storyline is going to have to get a hell of a lot more tantalizing, and quick.  Otherwise it is going to drag the show down.  Can't have that.

At this point, seasoned "24" veterans can anticipate where the show is heading, but like all great shows, it is not so much what they do, it's how they do it.  Just when you get a little complacent, "24" throws you a complete curve.  I cannot wait to see where this season takes us.

"24": Renee Walker-Born Again Hard!

Wow.  I think Renee Walker (played by Anne Wersching) has taken what she learned from Jack Bauer and kicked it up a notch.  This sets up an interesting premise for this season: Jack Bauer gets to work with, and deal with, someone who acts just like he used to and also someone who was where he once was: lost, angry, hurt and acting without regard for his/her self. 

This is going to be real interesting.

Praise God! "24" is back!

I watch one, one tv show: "24".  For me, nothing else on network tv rivals the writing, the suspense, the drama and the innovation of "24".  Well, the wait has almost ended.  Starting on Sunday, January 17th, the two night premiere of "24" will take us where no other show since "The Shield" has dared to go. 

On a personal note, this season includes the return of what was, for me, one of the brightest spots of season seven, Anne Wersching as "Agent Renee Walker".  Beautiful, sexy, tough.
