Tonight i would like to traverse into a different world. Into the world of Jack Bauer, Counter Terrorism Unit Agent. He is one of the main characters of the hit television show, 24.
Warning: Spoilers. I am currently watching the second season. First things first - The show is aired in real-time. Every episode is an hour long, but it is an hour in his life. It shows you every minute of day of his life. The shows are titled as "1:00 AM - 2:00 AM."
Thus far in one day, Jack has stopped a nuclear bomb and is now trying to stop World War III from taking place. Well, he didn't exactly stop it. It was detonated, but you'll have to watch the show. Currently, I am watching him being tortured for information regarding a memory chip. Too gruesome to describe. His daughter is suspected of murder and kidnapping.
Meanwhile, since the detonation, President David Palmer (The Allstate Guy), is having to deal with mass panic. He is also going back and forth on warring with three countries that might of had something to do with the attack. Oh, and there is a coup trying to get him out of office.
This show is pretty much amazing and one of the most suspenseful. No pun intended. It's pretty relevant to our life since we live in an era that is much like this one.
