I currently watch all 3 and i am completely addicted, 24 lost it a bit in Season 3 but since then, Season 4 and 5 have been Amazing.

Lost is slow and mysterious but i like it for that and im completely addicted to that too

Prison Break is just plain awesome 040_thumbsup.gif ... discuss...

I've not seen prison break... well, except for ONE episode...

if anyone has recorded the eps so far, I'd definitely be keen to borrow them if possible pretty please :kiss:

I only ever watched the first season of 24, and I got lost in lost after missing about 6 episodes.

I'm just not continuous with my drama series watching i tells ya!

fuckmedrunk! how good was episode 20?!?!?!? best episode so far imo. the character summarisation at the end to the backing of massive attack was just beautifully done.

havent had time to watch prison break but ive heard its awesome.

24 is a awesome show, need to get the box sets and watch the espisodes back to back.

favourite jack bauer quote "get your hands in the air or i will kill you"

but lost definately has me addicted. like spadge said it sucks how you have to wait so long for each damn new episode. why cant they just take a break film the whole season at once like 24 and then air it consistantly god dammit!! stop fucking the fans around.

RE: Prison Break ep 22

oh boy, that season finale was a bit disappointing. I sort of expected it to get boring after they escaped, and this episode looks like a taste of what's to come next season :(

yup this episode was disappointing for a season finale. or maybe we just had high hopes because all the previous episodes were incredible! imo, i wouldve been happier if the last episode was last week's breakout! (amazing episode!)

can't wait for next season. im guessing it'll be the usual 3-6 month wait?

I agree, that seemed more like S02E01 instead of a finale

Next season is going to be all about the manhunt, so i'm guessing that plane is going to come back and pick them up. They will be filming some epsioses on location in Mexico and have considered changing the name of the show.

Ok so to draw this away from Prison Break a bit.

I'd never watched any of 24, downloaded season 1, started off pretty good, around ep 10 or 11 it just got boring as fuck though. Are the rest of the seasons as cheesey with the family bullshit and the bad acting. It reminds me of MacGyver only Jack doesnt have the skills!

Episode 13

Jack - Do you have any loose clothing?
Rick - Yeah in my back pocket.
*pulls out torn off piece of clothing*

Yeah cos I know I always carry a spare piece of clothing just in case I need a tourniquet. GAY.

Which is why your not a counter terrorism agent and he is. They probably carry odd stuff like that all the time.

I can't comment on prison break or lost - never watched them - the previews looked boring IMO.

The latest season of 24, with the storyline about jack's daughters boyfriend having terrorist parents that eventually have to kill their son and attempt to knock off jack's daughter as well was quite thrilling in parts

I liked 24 right from the very beginning, plus on a decent system the sound production is right up there, especially with some of the intense baselines adding to the suspense and drama.

The first season i watched every week but the last 2 ive missed a few - its harder to follow if you miss an eppy or 2 - thats the major disadvantage with it - you can't sort of "pick it up" like you can with some soapies.

hehe, JJ you're a bit behind :tongue:

The latest season just concluded in America, just finished watching it ... any 24 watchers herE?

INSANE :grin: ... why did Prison Break AND 24 have to do this to me, now im waiting till Sept and Jan respectively

I think you're talking about Season 3... never saw that one, buying it on DVD soon to watch ... there have been 2 seasons since then if so (season 5 just finished in the US)

for those are getting the season finale, the XOR release is incorrect. this episode is infact a double episode (23-24) just like season 1's finale. LOL is the only group who has ripped it correctly.

NBS got it right too, their HR vesion is labelled as 23, but it's the whole double ep so that's ok.

Lost is now officially on my Shit List, a good season finale would tie up most of the lose ends and then just leave one cliff hanger... Lost has tied fuckall.
