48 marathon

Back on, Baby.

Better late then never is what I say. The weekend of November 23rd is our new launch date for the marathon, a little late but who cares, eh?

So, how did the first episode strike you? Read on for things I picked up on....

Since Jack is always so fucking bad ass I figured I might talk about the only other reason to watch the show: Kim.

First off: I hate Kim's new haircut, she looks like a god damn sheepdog.

Second, are we supposed to believe that in three short years she's transofmed herself into some super genius that understands encryption schemes and is capable of supporting the backbone of CTU? I guess the writers thought so.

And WTF is this about her banging Jack's new partner, I mean, come on I'm much better looking than that guy, and a better actor (ask Wombat about my award).

Another point of contention that has nothing to do with Kim: why wouldn't Jack go to de-tox if he became a junkie while undercover with drug dealers? Why wouldn't CTU brass force him to? Come on, if "everyone knows" what they did to him in there - why wouldn't someone step up and say something. And I'm sure they weren't holding a fucking gun to his head when he did his first hit of heroin, or Bart Simpson as the homies like to call it. Plus, haven't they seen trainspotting? Even a man with the willpower and strength of Jack can't be expected to quit H cold fucking turkey...

Blah, I still liked the first episode, and I expect this season to be as good if not better than the first two. See you during the marathon!
