4 Hours Down 20 to Go

If you haven't watched the first four hours of 24, you may want to skip this post since there will be spoilers. Just in case though I'll "hide" them using invisotext. [If you want to know what's said simply scroll over the areas where the text is hidden.]
24 is back and with a vengeance. The show has always been fast moving, but these first four hours of the new season have flown by! Terrorist attacks have been going on for weeks, we have a new president, the US government has worked out a deal for Jack's release from a Chinese prison where he was badly tortured, the terrorist leader behind the attacks on our country has been identified and misidentified, a family has been held hostage, Jack has been brought back into the service of his country, and more... Each season seems to kick up the stakes a bit... in past years we've had Air Force One knocked out of the sky, a past US President assassinated, poisonous gas released on an unsuspecting public... the list goes on and on. Still it's going to be hard to top the nuclear bomb that was detonated in the final seconds of the last episode. Strange as it may sound, it really ticked me off more that Jack killed Curtis.
