24: 6x05

1. Bill/Karen cuteness. Not enough. But still. I love how she's like "...Bill Buchanan from CTU." Chances are, if she refers to someone named Bill by just a first name, it'll be her husband. And Wayne won't be like wtf.
2. Chloe/Morris cuteness! Aw!
3. Bill was being kind of evil about Assad at first, but that handshake was awesome.
4. Okay, Jack's dad being involved was pretty insane. But then finding out that his brother directed the ENTIRE criminal conspiracy last season?
5. And Jack torturing him? Greatest thing ever. Really creepy looking, but still awesome. How much do I love that Jack Bauer can easily torture his own brother? I mean, I can't even get over the fact that Jack grew up with him, but...dude.
6. It's so weird how Jack is like the best counter-terrorist in the world and his brother is an evil mastermind who tried to...get him shot down on a plane and stuff in the last season. With no sympathy whatsoever.
7. Wayne was kind of awesome choosing the in-between approach. His speech was horrible, though. Especially his read of it.
8. I'm really frustrated with the lack of Bill/Karen. It's just not possible over a phone. It's okay if it's already established for half the season, like Tony/Michelle, but...meh. It's not working for me. They need to deal with the proximity thing ASAP.
9. Almost didn't hate Lennox in this episode. Then he had to do his whole thing. But it wasn't as annoying as usual because he was less of an asshole before they went down to the bunker. Is it just me, or is everyone different in this episode? It might just be my crappy TV, but I could swear his hair was different and Wayne and Karen's voices were a little different. Hmm. It might just be weird not listening to it with speakers, so I'm gonna go fix that.
10. GAHH HOW IS GRAHAM JACK'S BROTHER? THIS IS AWESOME. I WANT HIM TO TORTURE HIM LIKE HARDCORE.
11. No tongue things from Karen this time. *is disappointed*
12. btw, I heart Walid. And Sandra. *shrugs*

I didn't watch the preview, just a heads-up. I heart spoilerlessness. <3

(*sigh* I'm gonna go to bed. Sorry to anyone who wanted to squee about it with me, but I'm exhausted. And evidently getting sick again, gahh.)

Also - watched Syriana. Okay, Jayne Atkinson, BLOWING SMOKE? So hot. And she did another tongue thing. I think she just has a gift. I'm gonna watch that part again. And then go to bed. Because clearly her tongue > staying awake during French tomorrow. Okay. Night.

I must see Syriana! Seriously!

Ugh. I personally did not like this episode much (not only because of the unforgiveable lack of Bill/Karen!), because it just had quite a soap opera feel to it. Prove me wrong, writers!

Yay :)

Definitely not enough of Bill/Karen but I don't mind the phone calls if they would just say more cute things to each other. I don't like the actor playing Jack's brother and hate hate HATE Wayne for his wimpy, emo character.

OMG. I noticed the tongue thing last night watching 5x24!! And then again in Syriana!

I love your recaps, btw. I read some of them before you friended me and I've been keeping an eye on Karen's mouth ever since. LOL.

Whoa, it's in 5x24? So watching that after I finish this ep of Sports Night.

Hee, thanks! XD
