24 Things I Learned From Watching 24

The world of Jack Bauer is a harsh one, but it’s also an incredible learning experience. Here are twenty-four things I learned from watching the last five seasons of 24. You can watch season six starting January 14 and learn stuff yourself.

1. From the moment Jack Bauer “punches in” on the 24 timeclock, you just know this is going to be the worst day of his life.

2. Jack Bauer is another in the line of great spies with the initials J. B. (ala James Bond and Jason Bourne). Coincidence? Not.

3. Terrorists really have it in for Los Angeles for some reason. Is it Paris Hilton's fault?

4. The Counter Terrorism Unit (CTU) has severe workplace problems — bombings, nerve gas attacks, etc. — and is more than likely in deep trouble with OSHA.

On the bladder control issue, the crew knows about the issue, and last season filmed a joke about it. It had Jack chasing some bad guy, but instead of him running after him down this hallway, he runs into the bathroom. Need-less to say, they did not put it on the episode, but I seen it on some gag reel.

When CTU has a lead, it's always their "only lead" (phrase used as often as "Copy that"). The "only lead" will die when Jack gets in the picture, but will manage to spell his last words, which will be a riddle for CTU to solve rather than an actual answer.
