24: Jack, Back, Hack
After 18 months off the air, 24 returned with a two-hour movie, "24 Redemption" that took Jack Bauer out of LA and plopped him down somewhere in Africa. The Africa sequences were very well done, but the political chicanery in Washington foretold a tedious season of 24 with the usual sneaking around in the White House with cell phones, crooked corporations, trouble members of the extended First Family -- hasn't 24 covered that territory over and over and OVER again?
Watching 24 again feels more like an obligation than a pleasure. It's a good thing Fox sticks in plenty of commercials for more important matters.

I'm glad I didn't watch Season Six after the first few hours because I no longer feel that obligation. It was decent but not amazing tonight; it's like a better-than-normal made for TV movie, but it's just too much of that shark-jumping political stuff every time.
