A series of suicide bombings across the United States has CTU pushed to their limits and the only way to stop the attacks will be to sacrifice their star agent. But are they being misled and can Jack uncover the real mastermind before the bombings begin? Of course it s going to take more than weapons to stop Bauer from uncovering the truth but what he finds it just the beginning of a much larger conspiracy involving nation states the U.S. government and a host of other factors that make this season of 24 the most exciting to date.System Requirements:Running Time: 1012 mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: NR UPC: 024543462927 Manufacturer No: 2246292 Reader Reviews After watching the entire 6th season I could see why it got so many bad reviews and is considered the worst season of the show. It starts out great with Bauer returning from doing hard time in Chinese prison and trying to prevent terrorists from using nukes. Some shocking details are revealed (Remember that bald guy who was advising Pres. Logan in season 5? You soon find out the deal with him and it's a mindF.) The show goes into a nose dive after the whole nuke situation is resolved. A second plot involving a Russian Defense microchip comes up and it's a snoozefest. The show bascially turns into Grey's Anatomy with guns. Character and family relationships are explored in too much detail and are just plain not interesting. The new characters are for the most part lame compared to the old cast which was pretty much entirely killed off in Season 5. Miles O'Brien, Chloe's ex-husband, is the only reltively interesting character and he has a good storyline but the writers pretty much quit trying to develop his character in the last third of the season. Ricky Schroeder's new character, the dangerous head of field ops, is a lame evil version of Jack Bauer much in the same way Chase Edmonds was a lame younger version of Bauer. I recommend buying the dvd if you're a hardcore 24 fan like me and have not yet seen it. Otherwise, pass. I know this sounds like a mostly negative review but overall I still think 24 is a great show and the last remaining show, along with the Shield, from TV's golden age (Sopranos, Wire, Sex & The City etc.).
