Love the first season. It's the season that got me hooked on the show. Plus, finding out Nina was a traitor all along blew my mind! We thought it was Jamey, then towards the end of the season that it might've been Mason, but then you're at the end at BAM Nina is the traitor and ends up killing Jacks wife and Jamey as well.

I haven’t watched the whole series yet, but it seems like each season is progressively better than the last.
Season four and five are truely great.I really likes the first half of season seven. How many chance do you have to see chloe jack Tony and bill teamed up in the field!And I love the second half of season eight. Jack the ripper is really cool! And of course there is jack the iron man!
I always say that Season 7 is probably the tightest and most cohesive in terms of narrative through the 24 episodes. I know I'm alone thinking that, but to me, it feels more seamless than other seasons and you kinda feel that the year hiatus they took because of the writer's strike helped them polish the edges a bit.
Season 4 is one that I wasn't that hot on when I first saw it, probably because of all the massive cast changes, but it worked sooooo much better on a rewatch. I really like it a lot.
And I agree about Season 8. The first half was pretty bad, but the writers really pulled up the weight on that second half.
I agree Season 7 is the most seamless season, it would be much better without president Taylor(I hate that woman). By the way, I have just finished rewatching season7 yesterday, and there's something puzzling: is Jack going to be converted to Islam before dying?
Slight spoiler maybe? but that doesn't get mentioned again in Season 8 or LAD. Anyway, I don't think the point was to say that he converted or not, but rather that he had a chance to reflect on his decisions and his actions, and at that moment with the Imam he might have felt peace. Sure, at the time this came out, it might've been put there to make a point about prejudices and preconceived notions about Islam, but I see it more as a statement of Jack's inner reflection than a statement on any particular religion. I like it a lot.
