Dear 24: I love you. And I even love 2 hour versions of you. But when your 2-hour version intrudes into the 8pm timeslot which is already TOO FULL, it's uncool.
This second crisis looks very daring though. I need to double check my Tivo actually. And Jandy, Fox only has 2 hours of TV at night. LOL. they have no choice.

Really? They don't have three like everyone else? Now that I think about it...huh. And Matthew, yep. I already lost House because I won't give up How I Met Your Mother and I can't watch it on hulu. I guess Chuck is on hulu this week for me.
- Jandy
You know, if they'd cut down that news or make it later, they could free up another timeslot and maybe not have to cancel most of my favorite shows to make room for newer shows...for them to cancel...
- Jandy
Matthew - I agree. I'd rather they work the single crisis for the season. Tonight is a two-hour episode?
- Hutch Carpenter
Hutch - yes, two hours. I believe this second crisis is just really an extension of the first. They push the boundaries a lot so I will give them some rope with this one. Plus this season has been spectacular so far. Jandy - If I set up a meeting with FOX, will you pitch your plan??
- Amani
Sure. :) But it will probably devolve into a "FireflyArrestedDevelopmentWonderfallsTheInsideWHY?!" wail of crushed dreams.
- Jandy
Ooh, forgot Harsh Realm and The Lone Gunmen. Did they also have Millennium? And I would've watched Dark Angel for longer, too. Most of those I don't remember, though. I'm really bummed right now thinking that Sarah Connor Chronicles and Dollhouse are unlikely to make it past this year, and with BSG ending, where's my sci-fi?
- Jandy
Despite all this, we will be watching very soon (15 mins for some and 3 hrs and 15 mins for others!!)
- Amani
Matthew, yeah, I'm gonna have to start watching more cable shows. If I can only learn to find out about them before they're two seasons in...
- Jandy
Monday nights for me are crazy. I try to follow Gossip Girl (which isn't on till 3/16, so that's good), Heroes, 24, and House. Kind of hard since they're all on at 8 and 9pm.

We do realize that they totally messed up this underwater white house thing. There is no water remotely near the White House so that part of their story isn't plausible. I wonder why they did that. I would love to hear an answer on that. Because I am loyal, I will gladly overlook this slip up.
- Amani
OK Matthew. I could buy that. They should definitely make that clearer in the future because I am like, how did they get there???
- Amani
Heh, Amani, my mind just went right over that. I was like, water, whut? Oh, White House. Okay. Whatever.
