24: The Final Hours

The last two hours of the series delivered by the writers of 24 consumed intense emotions, and I was not disappointed. 

I'm at peace now with Madam President Taylor, redeeming herself and being a true friend of Jack Bauer.  Chloe too, a true-trusted friend and co-worker of Jack Bauer, risked her life and her career to find him, even though she thought he went "postal" just a few hours ago. We watched Jack Bauer's final moments on television "disappear" once again from the face of society; and I am glad that his character wouldn't be killed-off" forever, as some had presumed.

It was a wonderfully scripted drama with intelligent writings so believable and the timing couldn't have been better from the beginning to its finale ending.  We could easily relate to the story-lines of the terror and nuclear threats to our world.  It was nice to have such a hero who would go to any extremes for the sake of his country, his president, and justice.  We were vicariously hooked week after week to watch the suspense unfold, while it had us all on the edge-of-our-seats, glorified our nerves to the maximum adrenaline rush and we waited for Jack to watch him acquire by any means, the information from his enemies, unbeknownst to the rest of the citizens of the United States, was unfolding right in the streets of America. Jack would always seek the truth, the moles of the world, and would stop at nothing until he acquires it.

He was a true, American Hero, who's real heart and conscience was to always protect the lives of innocent people, no matter what it takes. He was true to us.
