Follow us on TwitterAlright folks, this one's for all the marbles. What better way for us to celebrate than for me to be absent for the final Live Blog of the season. I'm on an island off the coast of Puerto Rico, and if you're reading this, I wasn't able to find a TV playing the last 2 episodes. Comments are open and I hope you think of this as YOUR live blog. I'll put up a show review with my thoughts on the 24 finale when I get a chance to see the episodes.
I'll need you guys to keep count of the JBKCs (or Jack Bauer Knockdowns) and the number of times someone says "damnit". I'd ask you to count the stupid things that happen, but no one can count that high. In any case, have fun.
We do talk a lot about '24' here, here are some links.

This 24 Tag will take you to ALL of the '24' related content on Unlikelywords.
6:00 AM
-The Deputy Attorney General is doing a deposition at 6:00 AM? That seems forced.
-And here's the President, she ought to have at leas taken a nap.
6:05
-This guy Bob is a character.
-Former CTU Agent Kim Bauer. Clueless.
6:06
-This is ridiculous. Jack Bauer is just going to do that.
-What was Tony going to do?
-She's like, "What are you bringing Bauer for", because she knows how dangerous it is.
-Jack Bauer is a bio-weapon, but this is ridiculous.
6:11
6:16
-Good thing, they haven't changed the thumb prints.
-What would Ethan's excuse be for being there?
-Files? That's it. Weak.
6:19
-Can the Chief of Staff detain someone?
-"He stole my property, Aaron." Really? Property? Is she in 5th Grade?
6:22
-Why hasn't anyone sent anyone to the airport yet?
-Renee Walker was pretty blase about Agent Franks dying, huh?
-"Electric tooth brush"? Or vibrator?
6:25
-It's pretty awesome. Kim Bauer is as terrible an actress as Elisha Cuthbert.
-I can't go through security with my nail clipper and these peeps had a gun and a knife? Unbelievable.
-Haha. The low battery forces Kim into action. Kim is the only traveler, ever, to not charge her cell phone when stuck at the gate. I don't know about this show.
6:28
6:32
-Olivia is playing with a really, REALLY weak hand.
-What is she threatening him with? Like, if he does have the recording, what was his crime?
-The Chief of Staff can't order a criminal investigation. I don't think he can be searched without a warrant.
-I bet that was a duplicate card.
-I hate Olivia.
6:35
-Yeah, duplicate card.
-"A companion device to the recorder in my car." That's totally reasonable.
6:37
-Why are those guys wearing masks?
-Is this '24' or 'X-Files'?
6:40
6:44
-Why is that guy Martin just walking around at 6:44? Didn't he go back to bed?
-The FBI couldn't tap into the airport cameras? Of course they could, it would just make things too easy.
-Are those airport cops bad, too?
6:47
-That guy was good enough to shoot both cops while driving after being shot in the leg? And charming.
-"With a D11 inverse router..." Oh, now she's smart again.
6:49
6:54
-Pretty cool that the dude's car has a USB input. I'd like that.
6:55
-Spinal tap Jack Bauer getting another 3 JBKCs!
-3+38=41 JBKCs.
-Haha, try to harvest his organs into bio-weapon with your neck broken, Doctor.
6:59
7:00
-Did they not do previously on...? They did that for the last couple double episodes.
-Taxi lot, completely abandoned.
-Tony hotwired a forklift.
-Jack Bauer was going to self-immolate.
-Seriously, do they really make Aaron Pierce work this long?
-So, can Ethan unresign?
-"This isn't about getting my job back, it's about the truth."
7:07
-"This is the man who murdered my wife, Jack."
-Crazy, double double double Agent Tony Almeda?
-"You're not honoring Michele's life. You are reveling in her death and she would despise you for this."
-So... Tony just had a suicide vest there? That was lucky.
-Wilson is going to look at Jack Bauer's medical record? Why?
7:11
7:15
-The redhead evil doer is very homely.
7:16
-They searched Tony, but not Jack Bauer?
-"First I want to see Bauer's pathology report?" Uhhhh. Why?
-"Fire at will"! Because all of the bad guys were just waiting for orders to shoot at the FBI?
-I'm going to give Jack Bauer 2 more JBKC's for those hip checks.
-2+41=43 JBKCs.
-It really is helpful that all handcuffs have a universal key.
7:21
-Haha. The look of the homely redhead when Tony killed her was awesome.
-"You killed my son! My son!" Tony clearly is more upset about the death of his unborn son than the death of his wife. Emmy time for Tony.
-Tony's now been shot for the 3rd time today.
-Which I suppose is better than dying for the 3rd time.
-I'm thinking Tony's only play is to testify. Why wouldn't he?
7:23
7:27
-Wouldn't Alan Wilson be a known player?
7:29
-Now the FBI's only play is to get Tony to testify.
-Oh, now they're moralizing and rationalizing torture.
-"Because maybe I thought, if I saved them, I could save myself."
-"These laws were written by much smarter men than me, and in the end I know that these laws have to be more important than the 15 people on the bus. I know that's right. In the end, I know that's right. I just don't think my heart could ever have lived with that. I guess the only advice I can give you is try to make choices that you can live with."
7:32
7:37
-I hate Olivia.
-Again, where did Olivia get $250K?
-And how did the hitman get the bomb onto to the car outside of the FBI building?
-"Alison, spare me your sanctimony." The First Husband is more of a douche bag that I figured."
7:42
-Tim the FBI guy isn't going to be there until the end of the episode. What's up with that?
-And Janice, lame until the end. That's good.
7:44
-Haha. It's the Muslim dude. And Jack Bauer invited him, that's excellent.
-"We live in complex times, Mr Bauer. Nothing is black and white." "Simply a man."
-Spiritual.
7:46
7:51
-She's going to have her arrested.
-I knew it!
-"I will do everything I can to help you through this." Like, for instance issuing a pardon.
7:56
-I really don't have any comments about the Renee/Janice torture conversation.
-Was there anyone watching who didn't know how this stem cell transplant was going to end up happening? I mean, anyone?
-Anyone?
So that's it, then. Another crappy season in the books. Looks like the show wanted to equivocate on the question of torture and leave it up in the air. Jack Bauer seems to think that torture is wrong, unless... Renee seems to be making a case for the 'ticking time bomb' theory, except nothing is ticking, there's just some vague threats of future conspiracies. And then, in favor of the rule of law is the President, sending her own daughter to jail... I don't know. Next year is going to be just as dumb.
Was that Kim’s first KBKC!!?? And also, was that her first “Damnit!”!?? Hahaha I loved that!
Stupid thing thats happened so far: Kim is going to attempt to follow the hitman…
I knew Ethan had a “dummy” card…I should have called that one out…
Where is everyone, btw!! Anyone out there??
one has to be prepared when your dealing with Olivia. Oh yea former agent Kim on the trail !
Using JAck to reconstitute the bio weapon = is not going to make Jack very happy.
Pelham123 looks AWESOME!! I love Denzel movies
ever had a spinal tap ? “been there done that” BUT it wasn’t in the name of national security or pathogen reconstitution . I still hurled !
OH and I thought it was gonna run 8 – 10 CT so if anyone else did they may be an hour late and pissed ! Luckily my cat stepped on the remote & changed the channel @ 7:09. He gets extra treats!
ugh…i could only imagine. my ex had that done while in labor….forgot what it was called…epideral maybe ?
Did Kim just say “fuck”!?
Of course he would have enough strength to grab her arm, as he is sitting upside down in a burning car that just crashed and flipped. This show is so lame. lol
its a family affair !
I know who the husband is he’s Carl from BEN 10 !
I told ya Jack wasn’t gonna have this !!! JBKC – 3?
one hour down now everyone will show up and be REALLY PISSED!
And we’re back. Sorry Team 24. I’m just catching up. So far I’ve seen a few things. One Kim is a terrible actress and two the pres daughter is not the nicest grape in the bunch
The cab is peeing!
Is Jack trying to be a Tibetan monk?
Wow…Tony found a forklift, hotwired it, and used it to raise the gate of the garage in about 4 seconds…impressive!!!
Youre FUCKED olivia!
Damnit Tony look at me.
Damnit count .. 2 – 1 from Jack, one from Kim
It was just a play….what?? Wait…WHAT!!!?!??!?!??!?!?!??!/ OMGGGGG
The old double double crossed spy Agent Tony Almeda. It’s sooooo BS
More like an octuplet play…Tony Octomom Almeida
Looks like the Season 8 plot will come together in this episode….then…a feature film! Yes! (still unconfirmed tho, I think)
I just got a TRANSFORMERS commercial and then a local spot for LASER & ROBOTIC SURGERY the future is HERE !
Mr Wilson may not know but Dennis does !
hahahhahaha @ e-man…thats hillarious
I wanna know, why does a bra need to be work SEVEN, count em, SEVEN different ways?
Oooh a lil kiss for the mastermind
I can’t decide if I want to watch when I get back, or just read the comments. I feel sort of sad that I couldn’t find it in Spanish, though. That would have made it better.
Kara’s had Tony’s large roll in part of her!
The FBI must have magic silent helicopters
How come NOONE ever hears choppers when theyre coming…in real life, choppers are VERY loud
Tony calls FBI, then shoots at them. Ha
I know this trigger mechanism. Oh god. Gimme a break. Please. Please. And by knowing you mean using a swiss army knife to unsrcrew a screw.
usually those kinda guys have a glass jaw !
Did we know Tonys wife was carrying his baby? I missed a season or two…
Why would Jack shoot him again….that wasnt necessary.
WOW, season 7 in Blu-Ray TOMORROW! Thats pretty impressive. I should be able to download it on tehparadox tonight then! :) Oh wait, I already have all of the episodes..except tonights :)
she wants to know Jack trigger mechanism ! Oh the son thing ! that can really screw with a fella. Hell the Sweds are lettingem’ abort if ya don’t like the sex of your baby Now!
God there’s some horrible acting going on here. Agent Walker wins the award
Yeah, that little short grab and eye-stare was pretty lame. Is Jack going to torture Wilson before Kim saves his life?
shirt*
The “rest of these people” and therein lies the premise of the final season
Dick Cheney could tell ya what to DO!
We STILL have 30 minutes left…lol. Any guesses on whats going to happen to end the season ?
HAHA…Commercial for ‘The Proposal’ …. Girl: “What IS that!?” — Guy: “It’s the morning.” lol
