The following takes place between 9:00 PM and 10:00 PM on the day of the State Of The Union address…

After seeing last night’s 24
on Fox, I must say that I’m truly unimpressed with the guy they got to
replace Dennis Haysbert. This guy barely seems smarter than Kim Bauer,
and yet he’s the President of the US? You have to be kidding.
On the other hand, you did get the feeling that he was truly
overwhelmed by the demands of the office and the possible terrorist
actions. He dissembled, he evaded, he juggled by talking instead about
countries that had nothing to do with the terror threats we’re
currently facing. It’s a bold storytelling choice, putting someone in
charge who truly doesn’t seem to belong there. But jeez, couldn’t they
at least have gotten someone who didn’t look like he was reading
everything off of cue cards, somebody with some personal warmth? The
guy they had couldn’t possibly have won a Presidential election.
Here’s hoping they focus more on Jack Bauer next week.
