God Damn Renee!

So yeah, I wasn't sure what angle they were going with this at first. Renee's messed up, won't return Jack's calls, maybe hates him or something, is screwing her own life up, and then BAM! Saw a guy's thumb off! I liked Renee last season, but she's quickly becoming my second favorite character this season. Oh by the way, the bomb is back, looks like I was a bit premature in my last post. Good episode, although the subplot with "Jenny" and her abusive ex is getting really boring, really fast, but I hope to see more Renee soon!

More Mega Man stuff coming up sooner or later, I just want to talk about 24 right now.

24 Season 8 Premier

Yesterday, I had a pretty shitty day. Today, I also had a pretty shitty day. Day to day I live wishing for a time a couple of years ago where I was on top of the world with someone I loved and cared about.

But at least I know, no matter how bad my day was, it was probably a hell of a better day than Jack Bauer's. 24 started off a little quieter this season than seasons past. No immediate threat of a nuclear bomb, no main characters getting offed in the first five minutes, just Jack trying to get his life back together. But it was a well paced episode, with a relatively new cast that is feeling itself out, but nobody outright annoying yet.

When it came down to it though, Jack kicked ass like normal though, and that's what 24 is all about. Click here for the kill of the night, from the Something Awful forums.
