Top 10 Most 'Jack Bauer' Jack Bauer Moments

24 Season 8 is currently in full swing and the rumours of a big screen instalment seem to be gathering pace with each passing week.

After a moment in a recent episode that actually had me laughing out loud I got to thinking about some of the most ‘Jack Bauer’ moments this adrenalin soaked show has given us. A ‘Jack Bauer’ moment has become the definition of any sort of superhuman TV feat of action hero proportions that requires you to suspend your disbelief and just revel in the preposterous shit you’re being asked to swallow.

So this seemed like an opportune time therefore to count down some of Jack’s most extreme moments in the show’s 8 1/3 years, to see just how high the bar has been set for Kiefer Sutherland and the 24 crew to come up with something even more shocking for the impending big screen adventure and what could be the last season of what has become one of the most culturally significant shows of the last decade.

Over the course of eight seasons (and a TV movie) Jack Bauer has rightly become a cult hero and the benchmark for badassery – a sort of bastard love child of Chuck Norris and Mr. T if you will - but just what are his own Top Ten most ‘Jack Bauer’ moments on 24 thus far…?

Read on to find out.

10. Animal Cruelty
(Season 2)


No one is safe from Jack Bauer. Not even man’s best friend.

Maybe he was just venting some of that anger over his wife’s murder at the end of the previous season or maybe he’s just more of a cat person, but panic room dwelling domestic terrorist Joe Wald’s trusty pooch picked the wrong disgruntled former CTU agent to mess with.

Armed with a shot gun Jack’s attempts to get his hands on Wald for some vital information were thoughtlessly interrupted by a nasty little canine who was promptly dispatched Bauer style – with a shotgun.

Jack Bauer doesn’t have time for lacing steaks with sleeping pills…


9. The Towel
(Season 1)

Season 1’s Jack Bauer is practically Zen compared to the Bauer of later seasons, even relying more on graphic threats rather than actual violence at certain points of the day.

The most infamous of which has to be his attempt to break shady businessman Ted Cofell in the back of his limo. What grisly torturous technique did Jack have in mind for poor Theodore…?

Water-boarding? Electrocution? Making him listen to Bjork?

No, Jack threatened him with… a towel. Don’t think a towel can be scary? Listen to this…

“You probably don't think that I can force this towel down your throat. But trust me, I can. All the way. Except I'd hold onto this one little bit at the end. When your stomach starts to digest it, I pull it out. Taking your stomach lining with it. For most people it would take about a week to die. It's very painful”.

Sheesh, no wonder Jack had his own CTU bathroom.

8. ‘Bustin’ a Cap’
(Season 4)


Has their ever been a non-main character competent CTU director?

With new CTU boss lady Erin Driscoll more preoccupied with her schizophrenic daughter, it was down to the man she had previously fired – Jack, to step in and get results when a new terror threat emerged.

Jack as we know gets results in his own diverse style – which on this occasion involved knee-capping a suspect.

Yes, he actually fucking knee-capped some poor bastard!

Turkish terrorist Tomas Sherek learned the hard way that you don’t give Jack Bauer the silent treatment. While inept CTU agent Ronnie Lobell did things by the book and got nowhere, it took Jack approximately 30 seconds to extract the information he needed from Sherek, isn’t it amazing what a well placed bullet can accomplish?

“What is your primary objective…!?”

A walking stick.



7. DIY Torture
(Season 4)

Jack Bauer is a very resourceful man.

When it emerged later on Day 4 that Jack’s lady love Audrey’s ex Paul may have a connection to the day’s events, Jack naturally took it upon himself to find out what Paul knew.

What Paul thought was originally going to be a meeting with his ex wife soon became an all together more unpleasant experience and all thoughts of a romantic tryst were quickly erased as Jack set about torturing him with a lamp – I told you he was resourceful.

As it turns out Paul wasn’t involved, although he had unknowingly leased a building to terrorists, the schmuck.

Later in the day after Paul had taken a bullet saving Jack’s life, no less, Jack ordered the surgeon working on Paul, at gun point, to instead keep alive a terror suspect who was in possession of some of that all important vital information, you don’t say no to Jack Bauer, so Paul was subsequently abandoned mid-surgery and promptly died.

That’s Bauer gratitude for you.


6. Russian Roulette
(Season 3)


Day 3 was definitely Jack’s most extreme day, but to be fair you’d probably be a little wound up if you were battling a heroin addiction.

During his unsanctioned efforts to break Mexican drug lord Ramon Salazar out of prison, Jack caused a prison riot as a diversion, as you do.

Disguised as guards, Jack and Ramon were soon captured by prisoners who assumed they were actually guards. The prisoners decided to have a little fun with their hostages, unfortunately they didn’t have a game of Guitar Hero in mind and instead made Jack and a rather nervous young guard play Russian Roulette.

Sadly for the red shirt guard he got the loaded chamber, after being talked into playing by Jack (way to go Bauer). Amused by their antics, the prisoners set up round 2, this time pitting Jack against Ramon.

Both Jack and Ramon survived one pull of the trigger each before Jack turned the gun on his captors and as luck would have it he found the loaded chamber – he’s like some sort of gun-toting Nostradamus.


5. That’ll come in ‘Handy’
(Season 3)

James Badge Dale who played Chase Edmunds during 24’s third season will soon be seen in the big budget HBO World War II mini-series The Pacific – The Battle of Iwo Jima will no doubt seem like a walk in the park compared to spending 24 hours with Jack Bauer.

Chase was working with Jack at CTU Field Ops and also seeing his daughter Kim, something Jack discovered during the course of the day’s events and actually took surprisingly well, or so we thought…

In the season 3 finale, Jack and Chase had tracked down the last batch of the deadly Cordilla virus that had been causing them so much grief throughout the day, to a school.

While Jack went about gleefully pointing his gun at innocent kids, Chase got into a scrap with the bad guy in possession of the virus and in the heat of the battle clamped the virus vial to his own arm – what a fool.

Jack soon arrived and despatched the bad guy, only to discover that the clamp wasn’t coming off Chase’s arm and he only had a few minutes before the deadly virus would be released. Jack’s efforts to cut the wires to remove the clamp were unsuccessful (allegedly), so his eyes soon wandered to a nearby axe…

I’m sure you can guess the rest.

No one sleeps with Jack Bauer’s daughter and gets away with it…


4. Executes his Boss
(Season 3)

I’m sure at one time or another everyone has day-dreamed about telling their boss what for, well trust Jack Bauer to take it to the extreme.

During the course of the extremely bloody third season, CTU regional director Ryan Chappelle, who had proved himself to be a huge douche during the first two seasons, was ordered to be executed by villain of the day Stephen Saunders, or else.

Unable to locate Saunders in time, Jack took Chappelle to a train yard, made him get on his knees, and after some last minute redemption, when Chappelle was too much of a pussy to take his own life, Jack executed him in one of the show’s most shocking and, to be completely serious for a minute, sickening moments.

Just to prove that killing his co-workers was no big thing, at the beginning of season 6, Jack also killed Curtis Manning who he’d been partnered with in the previous two seasons.

Why did he shoot Curtis in the neck at point blank range? To spare the life of a former terrorist who himself was also dead a few hours later.

Imagine what Jack would do if you asked to swap shifts with him…


3. Going for the Jugular
(Season 6)

After being held captive by the Chinese for some 20 months, Jack Bauer was finally brought back to the US at the beginning of Day 6, only to be handed over to terrorist Abu Fayed who planned to torture Bauer and then kill him in revenge for what Bauer had done to his brother.

What had Jack done to Fayed’s brother? Yep, you guessed it, tortured him to death.

Dumb ass Fayed must’ve been to the Dr. Evil school of villainy though, as before he had his wicked way with Jack he proceeded to reveal his entire plan to him and then leave Jack alone in a room with just one of his henchmen, which was never going to end well for the henchman.

Although Jack was handcuffed that didn’t stop him from offing the hapless henchman in a rather grisly way, namely by ripping out the guy’s jugular with his teeth and then nonchalantly wiping the dead man’s blood from his mouth.

Kiefer Sutherland was obviously nostalgic for his Lost Boys role that day…


2. Removes Knife from own Abdomen
and throws it into a Russian’s Trachea
(Season 8)

I couldn’t think up a pithy title for this moment that would do justice to just how ridiculous it really was.

In the latest season of 24, Jack and emotionally damaged former FBI agent Renee Walker were undercover with Russian mobster Vladimir Laitanan (played by the brilliant Callum Keith Rennie) who had previously raped Renee.

After Vlad got a bit too rough with Renee one time too many, she took a page out of Jack’s book and shivved him through the eye with a bread knife. As Renee repeatedly stabbed Vlad’s lifeless corpse, Jack dashed into the room to stop her only to take the aforementioned knife to the stomach.

As Renee looked on horrified, Jack crumpled over looking extremely worse for wear, like a flash though he made a superhuman recovery as Vladimir’s useless right hand man Lugo barged into the room. In the blink of an eye Jack pulled the knife out of his own side and flung it across the room into Lugo’s throat.

In a show that has been crammed full of ludicrous moments this was by far the most ludicrous, but if proof was ever needed that Jack Bauer was still TV’s foremost bad ass then this was it.


1. “I’m Gonna Need a Hacksaw”
(Season 2)

Even removing a knife stuck in his own torso and using it to kill a man cannot compete with a moment so awesome it will probably never be topped, even though this is Jack Bauer we’re talking about.

Weirdy-beardy season 2 Jack Bauer was called back into CTU to help with a new terror threat in the first episode; to re-establish his cover with a domestic terror group Jack needed key witness against the group Marshall Goren bringing in to CTU.

We soon found out why Jack wouldn’t explain what he wanted with Goren as, after some brief exposition about Goren being into child porn so you didn’t feel bad for the guy, Jack shot him through the heart.

If anyone had any doubts about 24 being able to sustain viewer interest beyond the unparalleled first season then the immortal line delivered by Jack after he shoots Goren wiped away any lingering doubts – all together now:

“I’m gonna need a hacksaw…”

Anyone not familiar with the show, or who has read this list and come straight to number one may think that a hacksaw is a reasonable request and wonder why this is the most bad ass Jack Bauer moment – maybe Jack wanted to do a spot of DIY? Well the above still of Goren’s decapitated head in a bowling bag should give you a pretty accurate picture of what Jack actually had in mind for that hacksaw and it sure as shit wasn’t building a bird table for the Bauer garden.


Honourable Mention - Junk Bauer
(Season 3)

Although not actually seen on screen, (he doesn’t shoot up during the course of Day 3) Jack’s dedication to his undercover work really is something to behold.

If his recent performance in season 8 as a German arms dealer is anything to go by, I’d say Jack’s heart isn’t in undercover work anymore; but back in season 3 he was so devoted to his cause that he shot up heroin with Mexican drug lords the Salazars to maintain his cover, eventually becoming addicted and being very cranky from withdrawals for most of day 3.

You wouldn’t catch MacGyver doing that shit…

Out of context these moments probably sound ridiculous, actually, in context they were all pretty ridiculous, but for the best part of a decade now 24 and in particular the character of Jack Bauer have delivered us some of the most inexplicably awesome TV moments of all time.

Speaking of 24…

24 Day 8 Death Counter:

Hour 8 –

Dimitri – (JBK) the unfortunate recipient of the patented Jack Bauer leg grapevine neck snap, after he made the huge mistake of turning his back on Jack during an impromptu torturing session.

Bazhaev’s Henchman – (JBK) jumped and stabbed in the heart by Jack as he went to check the fuse box.

Bazhaev’s Henchmen x2 – (JBK) shot by Jack

Bazhaev’s Henchmen x2 – Shot in the head by Josef Bazhaev in the back of the truck transporting the fuel rods.

(all in all not a good episode to be a Bazhaev henchman)

Episode Death Total = 6

Cumulative Season Death Total = 28

Jack Bauer Kills (JBK) Total = 9

TV Moment of the Week:

- Locke’s ‘funeral’ on the sublime sixth season of Lost.

Mainly for two great lines – the first coming from Ben at the end of his eulogy about what a great man poor Locke was:

“…and I’m very sorry I murdered him.”

The second coming from the criminally underused Frank Lapidus (Jeff Fahey) after Ben’s aforementioned eulogy:

“This is the weirdest damn funeral I’ve ever been to…”

With just a simple furrow of the eyebrows Frank delivered another brilliant one liner – since his introduction, Frank has gradually become the on screen voice of the viewer able to sum up our feelings and thoughts with just one line or even a look. Hopefully they’ll give the series everyman, struggling in a sea of weirdness and eccentricity, something juicy to sink his teeth into before the end of the season and the series.

Check in next week for an in depth look at one of my favourite shows of the last five years – the incendiary Rescue Me.

TV or not TV Heroes #1 - Bryan Cranston

This time last year I did a live blog on the Brit Awards, this year’s incarnation of which took place on Tuesday, but after exposing myself to the relentless tsunami of shit that was last year’s Brits I just couldn’t bring myself to sit through it again for a second year in a row, as much as I would have loved to pour scorn on what is the most over-hyped and over-rated show of the year.

This decision was vindicated by the ten minutes of the Brits I actually saw which looked as gash as usual and consisted of Geri Halliwell insulting Kula Shaker – what is this 1996? And JLS winning an award, ah, the good old British public – don’t forget to take your shirts off lads…

Instead this week, I decided to launch a new quasi-regular feature profiling some of the more unsung TV stars out there and who better to begin the TV or not TV Heroes feature than the brilliant Bryan Cranston, star of the multi-award winning Breaking Bad.

Prior to the majestic Breaking Bad, Cranston had carved out a niche for himself as a supporting comedy star who routinely stole the show from series regulars on whichever show he was guesting on.

I always knew he was a brilliant comedy actor but with Breaking Bad he has taken his acting skills to a new level altogether, but I’m getting ahead of myself.

Cranston first came to prominence as Dr. Tim Whatley on Seinfeld, who became somewhat of a nemesis to Jerry over the course of the show. Whatley appeared a total of 5 times, at completely random junctures, but was always brilliant.

First appearing in season 6, amongst his highlights were being referred to as a “dentist to the stars” by George, being ‘labelled’ a re-gifter after giving Jerry a label maker Elaine had given to him as a gift (see what I did there), seeming to have violated Jerry with his assistant whilst he was under anaesthetic and who could forget his finest moment: converting to Judaism according to Jerry “for the jokes” prompting Seinfeld to be branded an ‘anti-dentite’.

To be one of the more memorable supporting characters from a show that was famed for them is quite an achievement and Cranston went to constantly be the best thing on whichever show he was appearing on.

Cranston’s next big role was on the HBO mini-series From the Earth to the Moon on which he played Buzz Aldrin, but it was his recurring guest spot as Doug and Carrie’s annoying neighbour Tim Sacksky on King of Queens that was the next role that made it clear Bryan Cranston was one of the finest comedy actors out there.

Cranston appeared in a total of 4 episodes of the Kevin James starring sitcom across the first three seasons and his highlights including ripping off Doug in a pyramid scheme selling water filters and then returning in season 3 to build an above ground pool, much to Carrie’s chagrin.

From there Cranston went on to his most famous role playing Hal on Malcolm in the Middle. Although I was never an avid fan of Malcolm, I remember the odd time I caught an episode that Cranston was his usual great self, blending perfect comedic timing with a great deal of charm and warmth as the Father to the titular character and his band of delinquent siblings.

During his tenure on the show, Cranston also directed several episodes of Malcolm, something he would also go on to do in his current role on Breaking Bad.

Following the end of Malcolm and the start of one of the best shows on TV right now: Breaking Bad, Cranston made two appearances on the very funny How I Met Your Mother as Ted’s annoying boss Hammond Druthers, although not given much to do in either appearance, Cranston exuded that comedic sensibility that underpins all his performances and was funny as always.

Then came the role that, for me, will define Cranston’s career – that of chemistry teacher turned crystal meth dealer Walt White on AMC’s amazing Breaking Bad.

Almost unrecognisable from his previous roles, with moustache and eventually shaved head, Cranston has proved with Breaking Bad that he can handle the serious stuff just as capably as the funny stuff and his contribution to Breaking Bad’s success cannot be underestimated – the show has a great cast, but it is Cranston that is ultimately asked to carry most of the show’s emotional weight and he does it with aplomb.

Breaking Bad and Bryan Cranston have had a hell of a ride so far, rapidly becoming one of the most unmissable shows on TV and snagging a multitude of awards along the way. Season 3 is right around the corner and after the plane crash that ended season 2 I can’t wait to see where Walt’s head is at for the new season.

So there you have it, number one in the TV or not TV Heroes series is the mighty Bryan Cranston, and if you haven’t checked out some of the man’s aforementioned back catalogue yet, then do so now!

Other Musings:

- Lost continues to have me absolutely hooked for its final year. I honestly haven’t got a clue what is going on but to me that’s a good thing. Every episode doles out a little bit more and then ends, leaving you gasping for more; which is precisely what a serialised TV show should do.

- Last year I wrote about how unbelievably cute Don Draper’s son was on Mad Men, which for me to say is a definite achievement, because for the most part, I don’t think kids are cute, in fact most of the time I hate seeing their stupid little faces.

Imagine my disappointment when I had a Mad Men marathon the other day to catch up on the new season and discovered that they’ve only gone and recast the little chuffer!

TV Moment of the Week:

- Jack Bauer took badassery to a new level on 24 this week by removing a knife from his own abdomen and flinging it across a room straight into a bad guy’s throat.

24 also took ridiculousness to new levels with this scene, if we were supposed to think it was cool it didn’t work, I actually burst out laughing the second it happened. One minute Jack’s on the floor looking extremely worse for wear after being stabbed, he hears a noise and suddenly has the wherewithal to not only remove the knife but to accurately throw it across the room to take it out his assailant.

24 has always required quite a large suspension of disbelief but this was about the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen; and coming from a show that has seen a White House siege, Tony Almeida come back from the dead, Jack Bauer land a plane of a highway, temporarily die twice, escape countless deadly gases simply by holding his breath and of course not eat, drink, sleep or relieve himself for seven separate 24 hour periods then that is a pretty bold statement, which is why this was so awesome! Only Jack Bauer could pull something like that off.

This all happened a few seconds after Renee had done the inevitable and offed Callum Keith Rennie’s Russian mobster Vladimir with the same bread knife. As soon as Vlad critiqued Renee’s bread cutting skills earlier in the episode I knew that knife was going to come back to haunt him, and haunt him it did as after getting rough with Renee one time to many she took the knife to his eye socket and then repeatedly stabbed his lifeless corpse with it, menacingly close to the genitals. Dark Renee means business.

Callum Keith Rennie was brilliant in his guest role and it’s a real shame he wasn’t around longer than three episodes, I’m quite alarmed at the speed they’re getting through villains this year though – we’re only up to hour 7 and we’ve already seen two tiers of bad guys (Davros and now Vladimir) meet their maker; and with Jack on his way to Bazhaev, its not looking to good for the patricidal Russian. I really hope that weaselly little Farhad doesn’t turn out to be the kingpin this season because he’s about the least convincing bad guy 24’s ever had, and let’s not forget that they once had Kal Penn as a terrorist.

All in all though, Day 8 seems to be getting on the right track now, even if that awful Dana Walsh storyline is still dragging on – I honestly think that only having one episode a week helps, it leaves you wanting more rather than getting bored by all the lame duck plot threads that don’t involve Jack, because let’s be honest, that’s what we all really care about isn’t it?

24 Day 8 Death Counter:

Hour 7 –

Vladimir Laitanan – stabbed through the eye with a bread knife by Renee Walker (corpse then repeatedly stabbed with aforementioned bread knife)

Lugo – (JBK) took bread knife to the throat courtesy of Jack Bauer

Laitanan’s henchman – (JBK) shot by Jack Bauer through a wall as Jack saw his shadow approaching

Episode Death Total = 3

Cumulative Season Death Total = 22

Ongoing Jack Bauer Kills (JBK) Total = 5

Lost S06E04 - The Substitute "Comentario"




Qué diferencia de un capítulo a otro, que diferencia de flash-sideways de un personaje a otro. Capítulo totalmente Lost made in 1ª y 2ª temporada. Tenemos ya bastante respuestas, que se agradecen. La más importante, los números malditos de Hurley, tienen su significado, aunque por lo que se puede ver en las paredes de esa cueva, que tiene más información que el mismísimmo templo, parece que ha habido muchos más números y muchísimos más candidatos, para el plan de Jacob, candidatos para proteger la Isla. ¿Por qué quiere Jacob proteger la Isla? ¿No está él para hacerlo o tenía que morir sí o sí? Si quiere proteger la Isla ¿por qué deja instalarse a la Iniciativa Dharma?

Los números identifican a los candidatos para su plan:

4 - Locke
8 - Reyes
15 - Ford
16 - Jarrah
23 - Shephard
42 - Kwon

Si le damos importancia a los números, Locke es el 4º. ¿Quiénes son el 1, 2 y 3?

El 42 debe ser Jin Kwnon ya que en la lista no hay mujeres, y ya lo dijo Mr. Friendly, Kate, You're not on the list, pero también fue tocada por Jacob al igual que Sun. El apellido Littleton tachado, ¿Aaron también era candidato? Y mi pregunta es, ¿Pero cómo llegan esos números a la estación Cisne de Dharma? es coincidencia o tiene algo que ver.

¿Quién demonios es este niño? ¿Es Jacob de pequeño? ¿Es un ser superior a ellos?. Parece como si Anti-Jacob le tuviera miedo. ¿Qué son las reglas? NO puedes matarlo? podría ser que Jacob no es la primera vez que haya muerto. ¿Son las cenizas de Jacob, las que retienen al humo negro?. Otra cosa es porque Sawyer puede ver al niño y Richard no.

Por otra parte, Richard no tiene ninguna intención de irse con Anti-Jacob. Necesito ver el flashback de Richard, FRAK! y decide volver al templo.

Benjamin Linus en los Ángeles. Esto es lo que no entiendo. El señor Linus lo dejamos en el templo, toda la vida ha estado en la Isla, si la bomba explotó, que narices pasó con toda la gente no-losties. ¿Por qué me aparece como si nada en los flash-sideways?.

Buen capítulo recuperando la esencia de Lost, esperemos que esto vaya a más. Y las preguntas son ¿Una guerra entre los 2 seres? Anti-Jacob sólo se quiere ir de la maldita Isla. ¿Con qué bando hay que quedarse? Parece ser que Anti-Jacob no es tan malo o muy bien no está engañando tal como lo hace con Sawyer.

Hasta la semana que viene donde nos veremos con la señora Littleton.

Lost...personajes pobres?






Me ha venido a la cabeza hablar de los personajes de Lost, porque con el final de la anterior y el comienzo de la 6ª temporada, creo que cada vez son menos interesantes. Empezaron con unos muy buenos flashbacks explicándonos sus vidas pero creo que han llegado a un momento que, no sé que rumbo llevan y que quieren:

Jack: cada vez lo veo más, el personaje línea recta, personaje que no se desvía de su trayectoria. Como no se le ha pasado por la cabeza en toda la 5ª temporada el porqué de su vuelta a la Isla. En la 4ª temporada le dijeron que tenía una hermana, le da igual. Ahora ha llegado a un templo, le da igual también todo. Le dan igual sus apariciones de su padre. Locke le dijo que su padre le daba recuerdos, también le dan igual, etc.

Sawyer: según mucha gente el personaje más evolucionado de Lost. Yo no veo ninguna evolución. El 3 años después en LaFleur no me lo trago, lo siento. Y ahora sus lloriqueos por Juliet tampoco.

Kate: el ahora ayudo a Jack, y ahora me voy a ayudar a Sawyer, es repetitivo.

Jin: el secundario de lujo de cualquier serie. Aporte más bien 0.

Sun: Sin comentarios. Hot Dog sale más en Galactica que ella en Lost.

Miles: parecía que el personaje aportaría muchísimo a la historia, y es al revés.

Hurley: uno de los pocos que se salvan y que parece más metido en la historia que todos juntos.

Locke: otro que también se salva. Alguien que se planteó el porqué de todo.

Sayid: tampoco me creo el Sayid de ahora, con el "haré todo lo que me digas Jack", es Sayid, nuestro Sayid.

Ben: el personaje más misterioso de toda la serie, y uno de los preferidos de mucha gente, pero que se destruyó con el "Yo nunca he visto a Jacob". Personaje que está más perdido que Lapidus en la Isla.

Richard Alpert: personaje que me da la sensación que no se entera de nada y eso no me gusta. Lo tenía como mito de la Isla y espero ver su flashback para redimirme.

Claire: no se puede aportar nada, debido a su ausencia.

Desmond: el comodín de la serie. Desapareció en la 5ª, queriendo decir, ya he dado todo para la serie, aunque esperamos su vuelta.

Todo esto lo escribo porque la temática de la 6ª temporada no me está gustando. Más y más misterios y cuando dejan caer algo, parece como si ya lo supiéramos y te tienes que conformar. Y el problema que veo es que me he tragado 25 capítulos para encontrar una escotilla y abrirla para que ahora todo gire entorno a una lucha entre un ser llamado Jacob y otro llamado Anti-Jacob. Espero que todo esto mejore y seguro que lo hará, y nos dejarán boquiabiertos, pero si esto no es así, no sé lo que podría pasar...

En mi opinión Lost se agunta por sus misterios y no por sus personajes como si lo hizo Galactica.


Found...?

The cultural phenomenon that is Lost made its return to our screens at the weekend for what will be its sixth and final season.

At times, Lost has been one of the most frustrating shows on television to be a fan of – answering the myriad questions it creates with a plethora of further questions, yet no one can deny that this is TV at its finest – bold, uncompromising and addictive as hell.

Yes there has been the odd mis-step, season 2 was a particular low point, but for six seasons Lost has consistently delivered quite possibly the most compelling, unmissable show on TV and the two-hour premiere of season 6 was no exception to this rule.

Picking up where we left off at the end of season 5 with Juliet (the brilliant Elizabeth Mitchell) detonating a nuclear bomb, we now seem to have two timelines established – one in which, as theorised by several of the characters, Oceanic flight 815 never crashes on the Island (which is for some reason now completely underwater) and actually makes it to LAX, and one where the survivors remain on the Island but back in the present day as opposed to in the past where they found themselves for much of season 5.

Confused? Join the club.

The ability of Lost to have you on the edge of your seat even when you have no idea what the hell is happening really is an incredible feat, I can see why, over time, some people have grown exasperated with the show and its inherently bamboozling nature but for those who have stuck with it for six seasons I am confident that we will soon be rewarded in spades.

The Lost universe is one of the richest tapestries I have ever known in fiction of any nature and due to the time travelling, and now alternate reality themes of the show it allows the writers to give long time fans lovely little moments featuring former characters – see appearances in the premiere by Boone, Arzt and Frogurt.

Enough about why Lost is so great, if you aren’t already aware of that then where the hell have you been for the last six years!? On to the season 6 premiere…

I’m intrigued to see where they are going with the alternate timeline, by the looks of things everyone is going to be worse off than if they had crashed – Locke still in the wheelchair, Kate on the run, Charlie under arrest etc.

I’m currently under the impression that in the alternate timeline the Island never existed (above water) hence why Desmond who was never originally on flight 815 was now on board. It’s certainly going to make for interesting TV, especially as even without crashing many of the main protagonists are going to still be interacting with each other – Kate and Claire, Jack and Locke etc.

Although we know these characters inside and out, to see them meeting for the first time after all we have seen them go through together in the crash timeline, especially the likes of Jack and Locke and Kate and Sawyer, is one hell of a mind-fuck but opens up even more layers to this already multi-faceted show, further exploring the ideas of fate and destiny that have been alluded to on many previous occasions.

In the timeline we are all familiar with though, things continue to get weirder and weirder.

The man in black, Jacob’s rival, whom we met at the start of the season 5 finale is actually the smoke monster and now inhabits Locke’s body.

Okay…

At least we finally got some semblance of an answer on what, or seemingly now: who, the smoke monster is.

Judging from Juliet’s from the grave message to Sawyer, courtesy of Miles, my guess on the dual timelines is that the bomb detonation did in fact do what Jack hoped and reset everything but it has also left the survivors still on the island unaware of their plans success, possibly due to some sort of tear in the space-time continuum – if that makes any sense at all! Hey, I’m spitballing here!

Juliet’s death was very sad and touching and I know some people have derided it as overly saccharine, but from day one Sawyer has been my favourite character on the show (closely followed by Desmond, brother) and his relationship with Juliet was one of the best developments the show ever made, so the two deserved a soppy, heartfelt send-off, and if this now leads to the return of bad-ass Sawyer then I’m all for it.

It was a shame to see Juliet die, but given that this is the last season and how many former faces are returning I doubt it will be the last time we see her on Lost; hopefully she’ll return and have a happy ending with Sawyer.

A nice touch that I really appreciated was the fact that Miles, Sawyer and Juliet have had that life together with the Dharma initiative and the effects of that are still present – Juliet calling him “James” and Miles and Sawyer remaining close “Jim” / “Boss”. It’s little things like that, that make this one of the greatest shows ever made, sure there are no end of plot holes that make your head near explode if you try and fathom them but small continuity points like that really reward the audience and give further depth to our heroes and their relationships.

I’m really pleased to see Nestor Carbonell added to the main cast – Richard Alpert has long been one of the characters that fascinates me the most and I can’t wait to hopefully get some insight into his past and how he manages to never age – I’m assuming the pool at the temple that brought Said back to life is going to have something to do with it.

Yes, the majority of the main survivors of the original flight – Jack, Kate, Hurley, Sawyer, Jin, Said and then Miles from the subsequent Island arrivals now find themselves in the Temple of the others.

In a nice touch, we saw Cindy the stewardess and the two children snatched by the others in season 2 living there in what seemed like harmony with the others who are led by an Eastern gentleman who refuses to speak English as he doesn’t like how it “tastes” and his right hand man played by John Hawkes (great actor).

Once Hurley revealed to them that Jacob was dead, the others freaked and began barricading the temple, assumedly to keep Locke 2.0 from getting in, and then after being drowned (or so we thought) by the others in their mysterious pool Said came back to life and appeared to be healed from the gun shot wound he had sustained previously – what all that means is anybody’s guess.

My theory – Jacob needed a new body and now inhabits Said… too out there? This is Lost we’re talking about.

Overall this was a fantastic season debut – the 90(approx.) minutes of the double episode flew by – Lost’s flashback nature has always been good for breaking up episodes and really making them flow in terms of pace but this double episode really grabbed you from the opening frame and never let you go. I know it’s a cliché but I was on the edge of my seat for the whole of both episodes.

Anyone who gave up on Lost around the season 2/3 mark has to be kicking themselves now because ever since the announcement that they were ending the show after this sixth season, Lost has had an energy and focus that has made for some truly brilliant television.

With the end now firmly in sight, the audience for the most part isn’t really any the wiser on the mysteries of the Island but I have complete faith in the Lost masterminds to wrap this up in style and cement the status of this show as one of the best series in TV and cultural history.

I’m under no illusions, they will never be able to satisfy every curiosity and answer every question they ever posed but as long as we get some sense of closure and at least a modicum of a resolution then I may just buy into the claims that there was a plan from the start for Lost.

Plan or no plan though, no one can deny that this has been epic TV on the most ambitious, uncompromising of scales and it has been entertaining as hell.

Lost – the sixth and final season airs Fridays @ 9pm on Sky1

Other Musings:

- Two quick is it wrongs for you:

1. Is it wrong that when I saw Heather Mills on Celebrities on Ice that I really wanted the fake leg to come off?

And how tempted do you think the commentator was when he introduced her, rather than ‘charity campaigner’ to say ‘gold digger’…?

2. On the Lottery quiz show In It To Win It, the contestants have this really unnecessary desire to explain why they are selecting the answer they are, not “because I think it’s right Dale”, it goes a little more like this…

Question – “what colour are your trousers – A. Red / B. Gold / C. Black?”

“Well Dale, Looking at my pants now I can see that they aren’t gold and they don’t look red either, so I’m going to go with C. Black…”

Get on with it you fucking moron!

Is it wrong that I want these idiots to go home with absolutely nothing? And what’s with dancing across to the question area? Are they told to do that by the producers or is it just a side effect of the copious amount of drugs most of the contestants on this show are clearly taking?

- Speaking of Saturday night TV on the big 2 (ITV and BBC) – its absolute gash.

I know no one is forcing me to watch either channel, and for the most part, I don’t, but these are two of the biggest broadcasters in the World on the night when TV viewing figures are probably at their highest and the best they can come up with is the likes of Take Me Out?

With all the great programming that’s out there it’s a shameful travesty that unadulterated shit such as Take Me Out with the ‘hilarious’ (notice the inverted commas) Paddy McGuiness occupies prime time scheduling when some of the finest TV shows ever made are buried in the schedules on digital channels that the majority of the population probably don’t even know exist.

- It was the Superbowl last Sunday and I was pleased to see the Saints take home the Lombardi trophy.

It’ll be great for New Orleans to have something to toast after years of strife and they were the gutsier team on the night, thoroughly deserving their momentous win.

I thought both quarter-backs were outstanding but I was most chuffed to see Jeremy Shockey get a TD and take home another ring – he may not be everyone’s cup of tea but I was a big fan of Shockey’s during his Giants tenure and was disappointed when my adopted NFL team traded him (although I understand why).

Hopefully Shockey can stay injury and controversy free now and continue to tap into the potential he showed earlier in his career.

Also, while we’re on The Superbowl – The Who’s half-time show was awesome as expected and Carrie Underwood showed she has pipes to match the best of them but what the hell was Queen Latifah doing!? Did I hear some jeering while she was performing?

TV Moment of the Week:

- Has to be Callum Keith Rennie’s guest appearance on 24 to single-handedly save season 8 from the depths of mediocrity.

Okay, so maybe I’m being somewhat bombastic in my praise there – the latest two episodes were a distinct improvement over what had gone before and it wasn’t all down to CKR.

That said, across the two episodes he was head and shoulders the best thing about the show – seriously is there a more underrated TV actor out there?

Lost S06E03 - What Kate Does "Comentario"




¿Por qué los capítulos centrados en Kate, parece como si no aportaran nada a la serie? Capítulo que me ha dejado indiferente. Lo comentó porque Dogen, así se llama el Japonés, líder del templo, no suelta prenda. Aunque ha salido a relucir la infección o podría llamarse también la maldición que decía Russeau, ya se verá. El capítulo en sí no ha aportado nada más interesante, Sayid está infectado de no sabemos qué, donde nos dan a parecer que Némesis lo quiere en sus filas, ya que si hubiera muerto, él se aprovecharía de ello. ¿Por qué Sayid está infectado? ¿por morir y resucitar en la Isla?

En la realidad alternativa Claire está a punto de dar a luz a Aaron, estando en buenas manos con el Dr. Goodspeed (alias Ethan).

Por lo demás, no mucho más, acabando el capítulo, con la presencia de Claire, vestida de Other y no muerta. Aunque según Dogen, ésta se ha pasado al lado Oscuro. Lo mismo que le puede pasar a Sayid si no se toma un remedio made in Dogen. ¿Estará Claire en el bando de Némesis? y sí es así, que cuento le habrá contado para reclutarla.

La guerra está tomando su forma y los dos bandos se están formando. ¿Está es la guerra que le mencionaba Widmore a John? Próxima semana más.

PD: la clave de humor la han puesto Aldo y Justin y su querer contarlo todo a Kate y Jin.

Friday Night Lights S04E13 - Thanksgiving "Promo Season Finale"




No todo es Lost señores, hay muchas más series que pretenden entretener y emocionar y una de esas es Friday Night Lights. Después de un fabuloso 4x12, se viene la finale, en un momento crítico para la familia Taylor y demás personajes de Dillon.

Para la gente que le ha emocionado la escena final del capítulo 12, la canción que se escucha se llama Dan Auerbach - When the Night Comes.

On the 8th Day Tony Rested… - Initial Thoughts on 24 Season 8 (and Introducing the Patented 24 Day 8 Death Counter)

24 is back and on these fair shores we are now 4 episodes in, my opinions of this season are forever going to be tarred by the lack of Tony Almeida but I’m trying to keep an open mind for Jack Bauer’s 8th “longest day of his life”.

I’ll watch 24 until the day it goes off the air for good, I’m strangely loyal like that, I stuck with Prison Break until it was mercifully put to rest and I’m still watching Heroes in spite of the utter gash they have been putting out recently, so Almeida or no Almeida I’m still a 24 fan.

Because let’s face it, even the debacle of day 6 (which was undoubtedly a debacle even if it did feature the return of Milo Pressman) which was 24 at its worst was better than 90% of the other rubbish on TV these days.

Yes there is some great stuff on TV at the moment, Sons of Anarchy, Breaking Bad, Californication, Mad Men, to name but a few; but nothing with the exception of maybe Lost (more on that later) has seemed to have captured the imagination of people over the world like 24 and for eight years now, Kiefer and co. have delivered us an edge of your seat thrill ride week after week, year after year.

I’m trying to work past my bitterness at Carlos Bernard’s omission from this year’s effort, which now may or may not be the final season for the show, and give an unbiased critique of what I have seen in the first four hours of day 8.

First the good:

Freddie Prinze Jnr. has been shockingly good as Cole Ortiz, he may be a bit Captain America but I had serious doubts that I’d buy the Scooby Doo star as a CTU agent, but credit where it’s due; within a few minutes of the first episode, all memories of him in a blonde wig as Fred opposite a giant CGI dog were gone.

I’m also quite enjoying the endless parade of familiar faces appearing in various roles this year, I don’t remember a previous season where I’ve recognised as many faces as I have in the first four hours of this year, maybe that’s been a conscious effort by the producers or maybe I’m just watching a hell of a lot more TV these days!

So far we’ve already had Doug ‘Horace Goodspeed from Lost’ Hutchison playing the first four hours’ main bad guy Davros, and once I’d got past the surprise of seeing the bespectacled, straggly haired Dharma man as a bad ass eastern European mercenary I quite enjoyed his performance… until Jack shot him that is.
Then there’s David ‘Adam Monroe from Heroes’ Anders who has just popped up as the next tier of bad guy, Bazhaev’s son, we also had Domenick ‘ Herc from The Wire’ Lombardozzi’ as a cop in episode 3 and we will soon be seeing the brilliant Callum Keith Rennie as Russian mobster Vladimir.

That is possibly the booking I’m most excited about, I’m a big Callum Keith Rennie fan, I really think he’s a great actor and hopefully he’ll get something decent to sink his teeth into before he is inevitably killed by Jack.

The bad though at the moment is far outweighing the good though, and remember I am at least trying to be non-partisan here.

Anil Kapoor’s accent is just about the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard, I’m pretty sure that is his actual accent and so he obviously can’t help how he speaks but it is so distracting from everything he says, even when he’s trying to be serious, I’m cracking up laughing.

The whole Dana Walsh sub-plot is just awful; we have no reason whatsoever to care about this woman so why are we getting good TV time devoted to this tedious, and to be honest, lame storyline!?

Are we really supposed to believe that this woman was able to reinvent herself and land a job at CTU, I’m pretty sure that given the propensity for CTU hiring double agents and the like that they would run some pretty stringent background checks.

This whole subplot kind of reminds me of Kim’s battle with Gary Matheson in season 2, another storyline I didn’t give one about, the domestic strife of characters that we really don’t care about. That particular storyline was necessary to give Elisha Cuthbert something to do in season 2 and was at least made somewhat interesting only by Billy Burke’s psychotic and damn creepy performance, here though there is no excuse for making us sit through this garbage, and although both actors are doing their best with the utter crap material it still has me wholly disinterested.

Then we have Renee’s return: I wasn’t exactly her biggest fan last year and this whole dark Renee although seemingly promising is kind of hard to accept really, I’ll give it a chance though because let’s face it, anything is better than the irritating Renee we had last year; I personally don’t see why they brought her back.

Speaking of which, I know Chloe is pretty much as 24 as Jack now but the ways they keep finding to keep her involved are getting tenuous now, as much as I enjoy Mary Lynn Rajskub’s work as Chloe I’d be quite happy to see the back of the character.

The fact that the show has been haemorrhaging viewers in the States shows that people aren’t getting hooked in this year for one reason or another and you can’t really blame them.

This season just feels like a retread so far: evil brother, nuclear material on US soil, bad men from Russia, bad men from the Middle East – if this was originally set to be the final season then you would have thought that 24 would want to go out in a blaze of glory not in what is essentially an amalgam of seasons past.

I’m hoping Callum Keith Rennie can bring his usual brand of awesomeness to next week’s proceedings and spark my interest in what, with the exception of a few great moments, has been a pretty lacklustre return thus far.

If I seem overly critical it’s because I care, the character that made me love the show may not be around anymore but I’m still a huge 24 fan and it pains me to say that judging what I’ve seen so far it kind of feels like Jack should have maybe stayed in retirement…

…So to try and maintain a healthy interest in the show this year, even if it turns out to be a major disappointment, I’ve decided to keep track of all the deaths that happen in the twenty four hours of Day 8.

I’ve always wondered just how many people breathe their last and how many of those Jack is responsible for during a season of 24, so for the remainder of the season I’m going to be operating my patented, in no way morbid, 24 Day 8 Death Counter…

* x2 of Victor Aruz’s ‘associates’ - Manuel Escobar & Mauricio Teyes were killed by a bullet to the forehead, presumably by Davros’ men, before the ‘day’ began so cannot be counted, but for their contribution to 24 canon they deserved a brief mention.

Hour 1 –

x2 NYPD cops (assumed, as it was never confirmed they were dead) shot by Davros’ men who were pursuing Jack and Victor Aruz.

x2 of Davros’ men – the first ‘Jack Bauer Kills’ (JBK) of the season. One takes an axe to the chest and one gets thrown down a stairwell. Less than an hour earlier Jack was playing with his granddaughter and her fluffy Polar Bear…

Victor Aruz – dies after rocket launcher attack on CTU chopper by Davros, also may have succumbed to earlier gun shot wound suffered at the hands of aforementioned bad guys killed by Jack

x2 CTU Agents (Johnson & Torres, I think were their names) killed in the CTU chopper explosion which was caused by Davros’ rocket launcher attack.

Episode Death Total = 7

Cumulative Season Death Total = 7

Jack Bauer Kills (JBK) Total = 2

Hour 2 –

No deaths, but an innocent housewife was shot in the leg by Davros.

Episode Death Total = 0

Cumulative Season Death Total = 7

JBK Total = 2

Hour 3 –

Jim Koernig – executed via a bullet to the head by Davros

Maggie Koernig – executed via a bullet to the head by Davros

Episode Death Total = 2

Cumulative Season Death Total = 9

JBK Total = 2

Hour 4 –

Davros – (JBK) shot twice by Jack Bauer as he was about to execute Cole Ortiz.

CTU Agent – stabbed in the neck with a pen by Farhad Hassan

Episode Death Total = 2

Cumulative Season Death Total = 11

JBK Total = 3

Be sure to check back in with the 24 Day 8 Death Counter each week as the show progresses.

Other Musings:

- Quick Football thought – Robbie Keane this week signed for Celtic on loan until the end of the season; a move which was greeted by comments that it was the team he supported as a boy. Yet when he moved to Liverpool the other year, correct me if I’m wrong but his excuse for leaving Spurs was that he couldn’t turn down the opportunity to play for the team he supported as a boy.

How many teams did this guy support as a boy!? I bet it cost his parents a fortune for replica kits.

- Dollhouse appears to have finally hit its stride and is now building to an appetising crescendo, it’s just a shame it took them so damn long to get there!

- Lost is back on Friday night (Worst. Scheduling. Ever. Sky1) and I’m actually the most excited I’ve been for a returning show in a long time.

I really am intrigued as to what they have in store for us this year and I’ll be posting my thoughts here next week.

Lost S06E01-02 - LA X "Comentario"




Lost ha vuelto, pero como ha vuelto, con muchas más preguntas que al parecer pensábamos que empezarían a contestar, pero así es Lost y que bien que lo hace.



Primeramente decir que estoy más perdido que antes, mucho más.
La bomba ha hecho su función, resetear la vida de nuestros Losties. Hacer que
el avión pase de largo y no se estrelle, primero porque Desmond está en el
avión y no puede apretar las teclas, unas teclas que no hay, porque la Isla no existe. Bueno sí, pero debajo del mar, what the FRAK!!!

Debido a la explosión, los losties vuelven a la época de donde venían, 2007. ¿Qué cosa/ser hace que vayan de un lado para otro? y justamente les envié donde quiere que estén?.
Juliet nos ha dejado, primera muerte de la 6ª, se veia venir después de una explosión y de ser apisonada por toneladas de metal. Aunque no se ha ido en vano, ya que nos dice que SÍ, que la bomba ha funcionado, ¿cómo lo sabe?.

Jacob entra en escena, muerto, y especificado por él mismo. Él envia a los losties al templo. Al famoso templo, el cual Richard en la 4ª envia a protegerse a los Others. Allí nos encontramos a unos nuevos Others, pero estos con unas pintas más de Simbad el Marino. Gran personaje el nuevo jefe de los Otros, ¿chino-japonés?. También podemos ver a Cindy Chandler, la azafata del Oceanis 815, y los niños Zack y Emma, secuestrados en la 2ª temporada by the Others. Y en todo este nuevo ambiente descubrimos el significado de la guitarra: una cruz?, creo yo que parecida a la que lleva la estatua en las manos, donde en su interior hay una hoja escrita por Jacob donde dice que se salve a Sayid. ¿Cómo sabe Jacob que Sayid será herido? Aunque no lo consiguen, ya que Sayid muere, no sé si por el balazo o por ahogamiento.

En el otro lado de la Isla. John Locke, a no, que ya sabemos quién es. El mismísimo Humo Negro o Anti Jacob, adoptando la forma de John. Él está muy desontento con los Otros, y se lleva a Richard, no antes diciéndole que se alegra de verle sin cadenas. ¿Esclavo del Black Rock?.
Puntualizamos el porqué de la ceniza, es un sistema de defensa contra el Humo Negro y el porque de las razones que motivan a AntiJacob a hacer lo que hace, intentar salir de esa maldita Isla. Lo que no entiendo es porque se monta todo este embrollo para esto, no podría haber utilizado a alguien de Dharma para ello? aunque creo que la mitología-religión, como lo querais llamar, tiene algo que ver.

En cuanto a la realidad altenativa, ni flashbacks, ni flashforwards, esa es la nueva premisa de Lost. Vamos a poder ver que hubiera pasado si el avión no se hubiera estrellado. De momento el avión aterriza en Los Ángeles. Todos los pasajeros viajan en él, en teoría, si repites la misma escena que el piloto, hazlo bien, creo yo, dónde están Shannon, Walt, Michael, etc. Aunque nos ha puesto a Frogurt, el hombre flecha, xD, la vuelta de Claire y la voz de Matt Parkman por la megafonía del 815. ¿Por qué duda tanto Jack en el avión? ¿Porqué Desmond no lo reconoce si se conocieron en el estadio? Remarcar la escena de Locke y Jack, escenas entre estos 2 personajes no tienen desperdicio. Pero no antes mencionar, ¿dónde está el cuerpo del Sr. Shepard?.

Y para acabar cliffhanger made in Lost, la resurrección de Sayid, donde seguro que a todos nos ha venido a la cabeza. ¡Jacob ha vuelto! ¿Tiene nuevo cuerpo? ¿El cuerpo de antes sera su verdadero?, digo esto porque no creo que Sayid vuelva.

Una muy buena vuelta de Lost, donde se asoma el porqué de toda esta historia,
una guerra entre Jacob + Others contra AntiJacob. Esperemos que todo lo acontecido años anteriores tenga sentido en esta guerra que se avecina.

Conclusión: estamos más perdidos que cuando acabó la 5ª. Porque, ¿Qué pintan todos los losties en esta historia?

Heroes S04E19 - Brave New World "Promo Season Finale"




Empezó bien, pero tengo que decir que me he estado aburriendo durante 4 meses de una manera bárbara. No sé si tendremos continuación en septiembre, si es así que nos den solo 13 capítulos, porque esto no se puede aguantar más. Nos quejábamos de Prison Break y su largura, pero esto de Heroes, tela.
