10 Reasons to Salute 24's Third Series

1. Jack's terrible crack addiction which lasted from 1.00-6.00pm
2. Michelle gong all Dark Angel, judo-chopping henchmen and shouting at petulent, disease-ridden guests.
3. Cult comedy character Chloe - when not almost being suspended during the pointless baby plot, Chloe proved herself an unlikely computer genius. And her totally selfish attitude, and condescending attitude to Kim, made her Character of the Series. Highlight? When the kidnapped Michelle broke free and phoned CTU in the penultimate episode, only for Chloe to tell her the line was bad and she didn't have time to talk.
4. Sherry Palmer proving as evil as ever. Her killing the judge from Ally McBeal byt talking at him was great, and the way she thought she'd escaped being shot (just before she was shot) were ace.
5. Adam's forest-like eyebrows.
6. The way Kim and Sherry managed to cram in three or four different hairstyles throughout the day. Do they have all-night barbers in LA?
7. Continuing the 24 tradition of completely changing bad guys five times a series. First it's the Salazars, then its Nina, then its the first English guy, then its Saunder (the second English guy), then its some random bloke on the subway. Can't the producers contract a villain for all 24 episodes next time?
8. Kim only got kidnapped twice - and once by one of her team members.
9. The entire first eight episodes being declared pointless when it turns out Gael was a good guy, and Jack and Tony were helping the a Salazars along for very vague reasons.
10. Jack cracking up. Tony going down. Chase getting amputated. Palmer standing down. Saunders getting randomly shot by Gael's widow (who let her near a gun). The penultimate episode's explosive, bomber plane take down. Kim having a dark-haired, equally dumb lookalike. Jim Robinson coming back for just five minutes. Pointless torture scenes. We could (and no doubt will) go on....
