This season has been getting better each episode, but they still seem to be recycling many things (which is expected, I suppose). I don't mind recycled "main picture" plots...that's probably why I didn't totally hate season 6...unless they do things EXACTLY like they've done in previous seasons.

For instance, the show could make Jack rescue someone he cares about each season. I wouldn't mind this, as long as he does it differently. He can't just explode the door down and shoot everyone before escaping in a chopper every single time. If they mix it up, even just a little, I'm okay.

Also, what is with people like President Taylor and Renee skipping several episodes. I remember Palmer appeared in every single episode of the first 3 seasons!
