24


In this drama, each season takes place within 24 hour period. Jack Bauer is the CIA special agent who uncovers an assassination plot targeting Presidential nominee David Palmer. He is characterized as a highly proficient agent but regardless of the perceived morality of some of his actions.

A typical plot has Jack Bauer racing against the clock as he attempts to prevent multiple terrorist plots, including Presidential assassination attempts, nuclear, biological and chemical threats, cyber attacks as well as conspiracies dealing with government and corporate corruptions such a compelling way that the viewer is hooked at every jump and turn.

What I like the most is the show was presented in the semblance of real time with each 24-episode season covering 24 hours in the life of Bauer which left viewer wondering what will the next 24 hours hold? This show can best be described as the most innovative because it has used split screen cameras, and a real time format to create the element of a quality show which intensifies the climax. It helps to make the show seem realistic. 24 is constantly surprising viewers in unexpected moments and you never know what to expect on the show. Anything can happen.

There are very rarely any mistakes with the time aspect of the show which is one of the strength of this show. You will also see most of the camera focused on Jacks point of view and from a human’s point of view and it helps to bring the viewer more involved in the show. The story may change; new characters maybe includes and leave but one thing always stays the same; the underlying story of the show is about one mans fight to do what is right.
