I was wondering...

Apple is a company with an extremely devoted fan base (as shown by this site)

Not only am I a big mac fan, but also a big 24 fan. I was wondering if anyone using these boards watches and keeps up to date. If you don't, you really should, it's such an amazing show!

I love "24", and have seasons 1 & 2, but I still have yet to finish up season 2 collection. Yea I know season 3 is already out on dvd and season 4 is whats on TV now. I know I am way behind, but I really do enjoy the show. Every-hour of that movie is so entertaining!!

I would highly recommend it to anyone, especially if your fans of shows such as CSI or Law and Order. It's extremely entertaing and suspenseful! This may sound funny, but I've seen every single episode at least once. Yes, I am a little obsessed.

Be sure to check it out next season! (Don't join in at the end of this season unless you only care about seeing some good action sequences; there are only 3 episodes left, definitly go and buy season one or two dvd's though, they were the two best seasons)

My personal favorite was season 2!

Oh yeah, and Tivo is a get companion for watching 24! It's completely differen't w/ no commercials (I start watching it 15min after air time, that way I can fast forward all commercials, and catch up w. live tv by the end).

What if I'm a big fan of Bo' Selecta and Red Vs. Blue? Would you recommend 24 then?

Man, I LOVE red vs. blue. I'm going to buy one of their DVDs someday. Call me crazy, but I tried '24' the first season, and just didn't like it. Different strokes for different folks.

24 is the best program ever made on TV in my humble opinion. And did you know if you have season 2 on DVD check out the directors commentary, somewhere they talk about PCs vs Macs.

With the amount of money they must be making they might be able to use all Macs in season 5! I wish I could write it! Jack Bauer could rescue a PowerBook with critical data on it that would save the world. It would even (if it was new) have a sudden motion sensor on it so the HD wouldn't get corrupted.

Funny, but I'm sorry to say, that would ruin the show.
