I only have three words about tonight's episode of 24:

Hoe.

Lee.

Crap.

I may have tuned in to see how they were going to pull off the real-time schtick that failed so miserably in Nick of Time (about the only things that movie did right were casting Christopher Walken and not naming Johnny Depp's character 'Nick'), but it's the characters and the incredible plot twists that keep me coming back. I was watching it at work, and for a few minutes I was explaining what was going on and who the various characters were to two guys standing behind me. They left to go home for the night--and ten minutes later, everything I told them had been turned on its ear. Tonight's revelation....phew! I wouldn't have believed it if you had told me! Wow.

If you're at all interested (and you should be), you should read up to date on the website (but don't read the synopsis of this week's "5:00-6:00 AM" episode that is bound to be posted tomorrow) and catch the rerun of the episode Friday night. I love The West Wing, but I can miss it if circumstances warrant. 24....I think I'll be upset with myself if I miss another episode.
