Think Wink.

Last week I finished watching the second season of 24 on DVD. I really loved the season and the development of the characters between season 1 and 2 were very well done. Personally, I didn’t like the Kim story line in season 2 because it had no real impact on the main plot lines. However, my favorite storyline was that of President Palmer. He was portrayed very well and his story was vital to the main line and was more emotionally engaging for me than even the Jack Bauer story line.

I have a concern with season 6. Having just watched season 2, I am noticing too many parallels. Islamic extremist terrorists attempting to detonate a nuclear bomb on American soil; the president’s staff is secretly plotting to remove him from power. I really don’t like this. I am hoping that the show gets away from de ja vu and gets more original. I am becoming more and more disappointed with season 6 the more and more I feel like I’m watching season 2. Fox, please help me stop seeing this de ja vu.
