This is probably one of the best action shows of all time. Jack Bauer is certainly one of the most memorable action hero's. I have been watching 24 for a long time. I originally watched it with my grandma a long time ago. Its a really good show with some great action scenes. But it is a very serialized show. It is called 24 because each season takes place in 24 hours and every episode is an hour. So not every episode has a huge amount of action in it but the majority of them do. Jack Bauer is a federal agent who works for the fictional agency known as CTU (counter terrorist unit). Every season for the most part deals with some form of terrorism that Jack Bauer must stop. I really enjoyed watching the show but at some times it felt like an action show with a hint of soap opera in it. But that's because there is always a lot going on. By the end of the run in season 8 I noticed that keifer Sutherland wasn't appearing as much as he used to, or at least that was the feeling I was getting. my grandma actually sensed it to. So I took it upon myself to record his screen time for all the seasons and I am almost finished. I will be writing reviews on each episode showing what I found. But that doesn't change the fact that 24 is and always will be one of my favorite shows. 10 out of 10 despite my catching on to keifer Sutherlands possible lack of screen time in some seasons and episodes.
