Forum:24 Sucks?

Seriously not trying to troll or vandalize or anything, I'm actually a wiki administrator on other wiki's, but I would like to debate with some of you admins and fans of the show.

Let me explain my position. I used to be a hardcore 24 fan, watched every season and was hooked on it for years. I even made edits back in 2012 on another account on this wiki and updated pages frequently. However, now I am older and have recently watched some of the episodes again, I am finding the whole show pretty awful.

Season 8 is just abysmal, there are so many plot holes I am beginning to lose count and trying to even struggle to finish it. I've found myself shouting at the screen on multiple occasions just over how terrible some of these episodes really are. I would like some of you admins to defend the show and debate with me. Main points I have are these.

Tarin Faroush - in the limo with Omar Hassan, yet when the assassination attempt goes wrong, he does absolutely nothing to kill Hassan?

Dana Walsh - This story is ludicrous. She was working with terrorists the whole time and for the first half of the season acts completely paranoid about everything. Then when she finally shows her true colors, the whole character changes from nervous to calm and cold. As if she would waste time dealing with Kevin in the first place, why didn't she just call Samir and get one of his men to take them out? It's absurd.

The Nina Myers twist is also pretty dumb considering Gaines orders Jack to kill her earlier on in Season 1. It's like the writers are just making this stuff up as they go along. There are other ridiculous subplots I won't go into, mainly the fact when Hassan switches vehicles in Season 8 and the fact that the car just drives freely out of the parking lot without anyone from CTU stopping them.

Honestly I'm not trying to troll or anything but I used to be a hardcore fan and now I'm older and watching it again I'm finding it truly awful when you think about how ridiculous some of these twists are, they make absolutely no sense. I would like to debate with some of you fans about this and let me know what you think. Just want a peaceful debate nothing more, curious to know if some of you also feel this. Seriously try watching Season 8 again knowing what happens and see how you feel.-- (talk) 14:05, April 22, 2016 (UTC)
