I haven't really talked about my opinions on TV, except once.  But it wasn't all that detailed. In short, I don't really enjoy TV anymore. But there's one genre that keeps me from quitting television. Crime shows. I love the aspect of crime shows. Here's a list of crime shows I watch.

NCIS
NCIS: New Orleans
MacGyver (the reboot)
Magnum P.I (the reboot)
Hawaii Five-0 (the reboot, my personal favorite TV show.)

But there's one recently that I can't stop watching. 24. I've been watching it on Roku Channel for a couple months now.

So, what's it about? It's about Jack Bauer, an agent of CTU (Counter Terrorism Unit) in Los Angeles stopping terrorist attacks before they happen. Nukes, biological weapons, presidential assassinations, you name it.

The show has a really interesting way it sets up its seasons. Bare with me here, it gets kinda confusing.

Each season takes place in 24 hours, hence the name of the show. Each episode is 1 hour long, meaning there are 24 episodes in a season. If the show starts at 12 AM, it will end at 12 AM the next day.

This is one of those shows where you HAVE to start at the beginning of the first season, because each season builds upon the last. There are 8 seasons in all, including 1 movie that takes place between seasons 6 and 7.

Jack Bauer is just.. insane. Take Bryan Mills from Taken and amp his particular set of skills by 100x and you got Jack Bauer. The way he yells and tortures suspects is some of the best moments of the show.

I won't spoil the seasons because you need to watch the show for yourself. The show has a ton of plot twists, which again, I won't tell you.

Keep in mind, the show does have cursing and tons of violence, so if you aren't a fan of those things, don't watch it. You can watch the show on Roku Channel and Hulu.

So, that is my review of 24. Maybe I might do more TV shows reviews in the future? Who knows, we'll see.
