Have you ever watched 24?

It’s an experience I can tell you that.

Season one was something else. Within our circle of friends it was remarkable. We got together and watched the episodes in small groups of three or four. I can’t remember if we split the cost of the boxed set or if one of us had already purchased it. Without the regular advertisements episodes are about 43 to 45 minutes long and they are awesome. Pure awesomeness.

24 is now done with seven seasons. That’s about 125 hours of my life gone forever. Do I mind? No.

Well, perhaps a little. Season four wasn’t any good. While writing this post I’m watching episode nine of season seven. You know what. I think we’re done here.
