    I agree.

    From the words of the Uk'ans:

    'Cause he's American.

    =====

    Last couple times I saw it he helped save America, not the world.

    He saves the world in season 4, silly.
    Yup that's what I meant to type but i was tired

    He doesn't save the world in season 4 tho, unless something happens after the 12th episode that invovlves the whole world (dont tell me).

    That's just marketing bro, not Republican "overtones".

    You can bet Fox pays for that.

    I've only seen series one so far - series 2 in the post from Dave. S01 rawked.

    Jack cried like a sissy girl about three times in one episode, maybe the 22hr ep - plus he didn't kick nearly enough arse. I hope this important issue gets addressed in the later series
    I plan on beating him to death with his kids. I'll use them as a bludgeon on his face. -

    --Good for them if they survive.

    Well I ain't Republican and don't see Republican values in the show.

    As far America fighting terrorism or whateverthehell well....it's an American show based in America...involving counterterrorism ffs. From what I see, some folks think any show (or movie) that's popular and has America kicking any ass or playing hero gives rise to certain "feelings".

    Pure entertainment for me. To each his own.

    Exactly. Some people like to/can only watch a show or film on just one level (as pure entertainment) without thinking about what messages the writers are trying to convey, how successful they are at this, what hidden agendas there maybe, how they manipulate the viewers (both for the shows purpose and for any political message they may want to bring across).

    I say watch the show just for entertainment unless you intend for example to be a scriptwriter or something and need to examine and learn elements of the craft.

    Personally I can't help but tear any show I watch down to its component pieces, examing its "message", plot and character development, use of imagery and symbolism, etc. That's just the English student in me though...
