Anyone else watch it? It is the best show, ever.

I watched a marathon of 24 last year, for about 3 hours.  They were quite addictive to begin with, but after seeing about 6 in sequence, I realized that they are pretty formulaic and repetitive.  Still probably fun to watch on a weekly basis though. :P

I have mixed feelings. 

I've seen the first 3 episodes of this season (well, 2.5 right now, watching the third one).

They're definitely entertaining, and I enjoy watching the show. 

However, I think they create too much FUD, with all the terrorist stuff.  People are already too afraid of terrorists coming to get them that they're willing to sacrifice just about everything for an anti-terrorist placebo.  I think that 24 creates more fear that probably isn't a good thing.  But that's just an opinion. 

Also, we have a "Media" forum for a reason :P

I have watched all episodes of this season so far, and I am getting hooked.

Could someone move this to the Media board?

I don't really like it, it's way too over-the-top drama, and it looks like it was produced by a kid with ADD.

Also, all the bad cliff hangers and soap-opera type dramatic twists are too much for me.

My parents are really enjoy this show.  I, however, don't care much for it.  I think it's good and all, but I don't want to take the time to try and watch every episode.  It's one of those series where if you miss a day or two you're lost.
The once grove of splendor,
Aforetime crowned by lilac and lily,
Lay now forevermore slender;
And all winds that liven
Silhouette a lone existence;
A leafless oak grasping at eternity.
