Body parts flying!

Day 3 9:00am-1:00pm

So the whole season was pretty fun, except for Disc 3 which was kind of boring.

I never was at all engaged by the President's whole story, and yet I was immensely satisfied with how it ended. I didn't see that (my satisfaction) coming. I certainly don't understand how or why his brother Wayne shows up in later seasons. I also didn't like having to watch Gina Torres play such a weak, needy woman. She's Zoe Washburne, gorramit.

I was really glad that Michelle was able to escape her captors, Jack style, all by herself. I was also really happy that she and Tony were back on good terms by the end. I was also pleased to see that Carlos Bernard is the only actor who actually constantly keeps his eyes on the fake road while fake driving on TV.

Chase getting his hand axed off was exciting and gross. I realize they always advertise seasons of 24 by referring to the fact that Jack Bauer has bad days, but honestly, Tony was shot in the neck, Michelle had to sit in fear that she was going to die of a horrible virus and then got kidnapped, Kim was taken captive and later had to shoot a guy, and Chase was tortured and then had his hand chopped off, plus half of the people related to the President died. Relative to just about everyone he knows, it seems like Jack had a pretty good day despite the whole heroin addiction thing.

So my watching of this was really just an attempt to satisfy my need to see more of Zachary Quinto, but, all in all, seeing him in this wasn't that exciting. I obviously just want him to be Sylar. Except I want him to be the Sylar I want, not the crappy Sylar on the show. But this did kind of make me want to watch more 24. Maybe I'll get around to some other days eventually.
