When I first start watching 24 , it was just a week after watching Prison Break and i thought nothing would ever come close to that level . I was wrong !! I liked 24 from the start ! 24 combines sophisticated thinking , drama , action , the unique clock ticking all along the episode , and the most important part is the two great actors : Kiefer Sutherland and Mary Lynn Rajskub . Kiefer is doing a great job !! He brings to the table brutality that let him face dozens of hostiles , and wipe them all out alone ! and just a perfect playing ! obviously one of the greatest players I have ever seen ! Mary Lynn Rajskub brings the only thing this show is missing : humor ! she tends to answer in a very funny sarcasm , and actually completes the show . Although the show is long , you will enjoy every episode , and if you didn't watched it , don't read this .... go and watch it !!!!
