In between writing sessions, I've been watching the limited 24 series 'Live Another Day'. I wouldn't call myself the biggest fan of the series itself, but I love the character of Jack Bauer. The show has never been an artistic triumph, but that isn't a debit against it. It just aims to entertain. It requires a solid suspension of disbelief from the audience (wow! I know a series of books that's like that too!), but it always delivers the goods.
I am finding the show a trifle predictable this time around. But I do like the fact that there are few filler episodes as well. The now 12 episode series length allows the show to stay lean and mean, without the dreadful episodes in the past dealing with Jack's idiot daughter getting chased by cougars. Yeesh!
