I used to see the last few minutes when it was on before the X Files. I never saw anything that would make me want to watch a second more though. Maybe there was a hidden meaning.
My son is mad on 24 and has the boxed sets to all the series. I watched the first series and got fed up with it, so haven't watched the others. Its one of those series I think, you either love it or hate it! Personally, I love Lost and buy it as soon as it comes out on DVD.
i love 24, have all the box sets, glued to the screen i was. I had the CTU ring tone aswell, and every time i heard it on 24 i thought my fone was ringing!! lol
