Well....we are off to an interesting start on 24. Not as much dying as in the case in season premieres of the past (airplanes blowing up and train wrecks and what have you) but some major, MAJOR deaths instead. President David Palmer and ex-CTU op Michelle Dessler, fan favorites, both went down in the first 10 minutes. They promised it and it happened. When they put "Special Guest Appearance by Dennis Haysbert" in the credits you know that character is short-lived. Not surprised but saddened. Two really great characters are gone.
Well, let's organize the chart. Before the show started I came up a bunch of categories, means of death parameters. By the time the two hour premiere ended I had to add two more to the list...lol....ok, now the tabulating:
EPISODES 7 A.M. TO 8.A.M. AND 8.A.M. TO 9 A.M.
DEATH BY SHOOTING: 5 SEASON TOTAL: 5
BY JACK: 2 SEASON TOTAL: 2
DEATH BY STABBING: 1 SEASON TOTAL: 1
BY JACK: 1 SEASON TOTAL: 1
DEATH BY EXLOSION:1 SEASON TOTAL: 1
BY JACK: 0 SEASON TOTAL: 1
SUICIDES: 1 (cyanide) SEASON TOTAL: 1
And on a sidenote, Jack punched 4 dudes...
Oh, the other categories I have are car crashes/hit by cars, falling, bludgeoning, stranglings, being crushed, and the ever-popular great administering of pain, because people DO get tortured.
Well, that's the beginning...let's see what tonights two hours will bring....
A blog to show my caricatures, logos, cartoons and whatever else I might've scribbled down.
