Paul's dead, and I can just smell someone getting rubbed out by the Chinese. I thought this was really good, Audrey spouting off at Jack was great acting, and it was nice to see Jack as a complete badass.

Season 3 was also just plain awful at times. Season 2 was amazingly consistent.

I only started watching from season 2 aswell. I remember a friend telling me season one was decent, but I'd missed a few episodes and never watched it. I only got round to watching it a few months ago. It was like watching a prequel.

Season 2 was fun to watch because a mate of mine also watched it so every Monday morning in school (it was on on sundays) we would talk about it. It was more fun that our biology lesson. He couldnt watch season 3 because it was on sky. I therefore had nobody to talk about it to, which kind of made it less fun.

Yeah. I became a fan of the show from Season 2 onwards, so when I bought Season 1, I watched it all without a break. I'm planning a 24 marathon this summer, where I'll watch all 4 seasons back to back :0)

I like it back to back, its like when you watch the DVD's. I found myself just watching a whole season within about 2 days because I just wanted to watch the next episode straight away.

I can't help but think that back-to-back will kill part of the tension. Still, can't say I'm bothered. If all 4 finale episodes were available now, I'd have them within a few hours without a doubt.

Yeah, its a back to back finale. Not long to wait now.

Think once my exams are over I may go back and watch all of the seasons.

Looking forward to seeing how this season ends. I take it the last to episodes will be back to back so they'll be shown in 3 weeks?

Chapelle's death episode was one of the best moments of television in the past decade. It was some of the best acting I have ever seen. I felt so sorry for the guy. He looked genuinely scared and when he said his only friends where the people at CTU it hit home how sad and pathetic he was and that nobody had even noticed. All of the way through the episode I thought that he would be saved. It was a bit of a shock when they suddenly said that the mission was a failure and he had to be killed. I thought the way there was no "beep" noise on the clock straight afterwards made it feel even worse. I was expecting the beep as some form of closure to the episode, but instead you just get the faint sound of the wind.

Ooops, didn't mean it like that. Chappelle's death was probably the best episode of tv I've seen, it was great. Just Jacks reaction when Paul died was like after he had killed Chappelle - thats what I meant :0)

Nah. Chapelle's death was amazing. No one expected it too happen but he fell to the ground and still people thought it was all faked. This just wasn't the same. You even felt sorry for Chappelle when he acknowledged he had no friends. Paul was quite cool in the field but was a bit of a lame side-story while slowly dieing on a hospital bed.
