Live "24" from midnight to 1am....and more stuff, too!!!

I'm back!! I'm blogging!!! And it's time for "24"!!

It's the dark of midnight in Los Angeles as we rejoin the dark heart of President Logan.

I'm telling you, neither Logan nor Henderson is the top of the food chain. Wait, just wait.

Jack in a police car....that'll be interesting!

First TV shot tonight is a "CNN" ripoff, showing no partiality on the Fox network.

First cell phone call goes to: President Charles "Napoleon" Logan

First time I see a possible split between Logan and Henderson----12:03am.

Does this idiot actually think he can "use" Chloe???

Buchanan's back!!! Can't trust him now, either. Is Palmer safe with him??

Someone's at the pay phone, she's Audrey! (insert la la music here)

DADDY'S HOME!!! 12:06am

Jack----just tell him, for heaven's sake!!!!! Why does he have to show him something? Okay....listen to something.

Well.....in the end, the Jack/Daddy reunion was, ah, more like a punch to the stomach or something....

So, does this mean (if you remember, Daddy confronted the President in last week's promo) the "confrontation" is a set-up or maybe a way to honestly try to "shuffle Logan off to Buffalo"....where he could be readied for a re-enactment of President McKinley's assassination??
Chloe...hang up. There is no peace in this valley.

Man. Edgar, dead. Audrey, held. Jack, same. Buchanan, on waivers, a free agent. Doughboy, for all his warts, gone. Tony, dead. Michelle, dead.

Oh, Mike's cell phone has Fox News. We're tied at one.

Mike just knows, man, he's got a great gut. He goes to the Veep first to scratch n' sniff. Mike's gut 1, Veep 0.

Bingo. What order, said the General?

Mike now feels out the snake, and how best to cut the head off.

FINALLY----------THE CHINESE ARE FINALLY MENTIONED IN HOUR 19!!!!! And they are a pawn in Logan's "arsenal". They will be heard from again!!!

I think Logan is beginning to understand you can only hold onto sensitive, covert, patriotic, diabolical plans for so long before they start to fall apart.

You know, kinda like the Orioles. By the end of April, the falling apart should be well underway.

----------------------------------------

Off the screen: Today was a good day. My awesome friend returns from vacation tomorrow. And, heard from another great friend today via email!

I'm still head over heels for Jill, aka #12, on Deal or No Deal. She looks so sweet, plus you can tell you could sit down with her for conversation, and it be so enjoyable and educational and intellgent, the next thing you'd know, it would be eight hours later.

----------------------------------------

So, at what point will Miles have to grovel to get Chloe's help? Hey, thanks for the card, Miles! You can't beat Chloe, she's our MVP!!

Alright, slap this brunette Barbie and let her go back to Miles to be sexually harassed some more. Chloe tells her she's sick and needs help.

So do these two. (Logan and wife)....good heavens, would ANY of you ladies out there actually want to kiss President Logan????

Leave a comment at the end of this post if you would.

Our next call is Logan to Henderson. Logan, oh, I'm sorry, Mr. President Benedict, welcome to the program; what's your question for evil bedfellow?

------------------------------------------------

Off the radar: Wonder how many "24" fans are going to bolt out their front door at 10pm Eastern to get to the post office in their town that's open until 1159pm?

Even more frantically---how would like to be STILL DOING YOUR TAXES while trying to watch "24"? A great reason not to procrastinate next year, as tax day will be Monday again (Monday April 16, 2007).

I'm so glad they've upgraded the push-up bra at Victoria's Secret...mine is worn out. And, it's extra sexy. Wouldn't you rather have one that's "extra dog ugly?"

------------------------------------------------

This is not going to be the showdown we thought it would be last week during the promo. I'll keep an open mind.

Oh, no----not the seducer!! Pierce, don't do it!!!! You'll be the latest in a long line of losers that started with Hillary.

Cracking. Cracking. CRACKED!!!!! Good job, Heller---he remembered what I forgot; Logan's a hothead. It didn't take much to open him up. (Sounds like Jim Ross: "oh, he's busted open!!!)

I still don't trust Buchanan; now he's got Palmer and Chloe.

Back to Hillary.....ah, where'd Pierce go? No one to use her charms on. But where is Pierce????

Hasn't been a "Jack-filled" episode; I like those this year. Allow better storytelling with more character development for others.

Jack and Audrey yell "hot water, hot water!!!"---and she's not even having a baby!!

It's 12:48am.

---------------------------------------------------------

Off the show; during the break: A scare last Friday afternoon after receiving a call from Aunt Sherry at work that she and the five kids had been rear-ended on US 1. I run out the door, hit every red light ever built, and finally got there. Rachel was shaken up; Robbie's defense mechanism was to talk continually. One cousin complained of neck pain, but she's doing well. :)

I'M SORRY----RIDE IT LIKE A FORD??? Save a horse, ride a cowboy, now we ride Fords.
Good Lord, how 'bout just riding someone who REALLY, like, LOVES you. For example, how about a husband?

---------------------------------------------------------

Okay, last segment always brings out a bang. Where are we going?

Jack's first command to bad guy: 45 decibels.
Jack's first command to bad guy for the second time: 85 decibels.

Oh, I didn't mean "bang" literally!! Oh, and a "pow" for good measure.

Now...it's been a few hours since it was Bauer vs. Henderson.

Now we know why Jack's so good. His teacher keeps one upping him.

Now, it's Heller vs Logan vs. Veep, inside a steel cage!

Don't worry kids...it's just 1am, plenty of time for Audrey to heal up, Heller to go psycho, Chloe to do her thing, and I'm still waiting for Jack to tell someone as he shoots them, "I'll see you in hell". After all, that was in the original promo prior to January!!

So, am I ticked at tonight's events? Sure! But it's like wrestling; the bad guy has to get his friends and they team up to beat up your favorite wrestler so it's even sweeter when your wrestler gets his revenge (usually on pay-per-view if you're willing to cough up 35 bucks).

PROMO TIME:---More Martha madness; Audrey won't pull the trigger, and it's harder to see all the action when it's 1am in real time.

Whew. Time for snack, meds, and bed, in that order. Good night, everybody!!!
