"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

OK, I'll call it then: I am Jack's velvety whisper.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am Jack's well-worn baseball cap.

Other Jack.

Other Jack.

The other Jack, the other other Jack, or the other other other Jack.

Heh, next spoiler thread should be, "You don't know Jack, or at least not which one."

Art Crawl!!!

I don't read this thread so you guys have probably already been discussing this:

Billie Piper is leaving Doctor Who in the middle of the next series.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

24 Finale spoilers from AICN:

  • Naked Mandy phones Michelle and tells her to do everything she says or Michelle’s beloved Soul-Patch Tony dies.
  • We get Naked Tony this week too as Mandy forces him to strip.
  • That shot of Michelle screaming in the promo? She’s screaming at the image of Tony dying in a massive fireball.
  • After four seasons and – what – eight years? Jack finally takes Naked Mandy into CTU custody and gets to “question” her.
  • In San Diego, Chinese agents kidnap and interrogate Howard Bern, the CTU agent spotted on the Chinese embassy’s videotape. The Chinese agents threaten to sneak Bern out of the U.S. to rot inside a Chinese labor camp. As the 23rd hour ends, Bern confesses the man who led the embassy raid was Jack Bauer.
  • In return for a presidential pardon, Mandy reveals Marwan’s location.
  • Marwan puts a bullet into Curtis. Jack puts one into Marwan. That shot of somebody hanging on the outside of a parking garage, high above the street? That's Marwan, who is given the opportunity to prove he’d rather die than reveal the nuclear warhead’s destination.
  • The Chinese contact the White House and demand Jack Bauer be turned over to them immediately, to be tried on Chinese soil under Chinese law. Over Palmer’s protests, President Logan agrees.

Okay, so, season 5...that is, day 5. Does it pick up with Jack in China (how long is a flight from China to L.A., anyhow)? Does it pick up after Jack's been subjected to Chinese water torture for three years? Does it take place in China? Does Jack die in the off season? Is season 5 about getting back Jack?

What do you think? If ya got 'em, smoke 'em.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

If you really want to know about tonight's episode, go here [link] I don't know where this person gets his information, but the spoilers for last two weeks were correct.

The TV Heaven spoilers refute AICN's spoilers. I tend to believe the TV Heaven material, because as Ginger mentioned, they've been dead on.

Was the TV Heaven screen too wide for anyone else? I'm only a little spoiled (for the very ending) because I am too lazy to scroll sideways for every single line.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Yes, the TV Heaven screen in annoyingly wide. I was reading 24 spoilers for the same reason that I check out what characters are alive at the end of a book: if someone I like is going to die, I want to be prepared.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Was there a discussion of "Charmed" somewhere? I just saw the season finale and I am a little underwhelmed.
