[QUOTE="Willie Oleson, post: 263079, member: 8"] I've watched the first episode but it failed to intrigue me. It looks very dated but the real problem is that it [I]is[/I] very dated, because of all the remarkable and crazy stuff that has happened in the real world after this first 24 story. I suspect that part of 24's appeal was the slick, fresh and semi-topical political tone that mostly works in present time, and not 10 or 20 years later. I'd constantly need to feign a level of ignorance in order to enjoy the modern excitement in the 24 story. Then there's the concept itself. Even if I binged a complete season in one sitting I'd struggle to view it as a one-day-event. It's probably better to limit myself to the 24 song. [MEDIA=youtube]3Fv1aZWPKbg[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
