Review - 24 Season 8 Episode 22

Jack Bauer versus everyone. That's essentially how the writers are playing it and they are sapping every bit of life out of the story literally and figuratively. Having wasted all the plot twists (or having none in the first place), the writers have turned towards a one-dimensional type of storytelling which would be good if we haven't seen it 50 times in the past. Jack takes out the Secret Service, snatches Logan, interrogates Logan, and proceeds to slaughter the Russians. Damn, that's all in one hour.

Taylor continues to bury herself and I'm guessing she'll be exiting with even more disgrace than Logan. This time, she clamps down on the press, so Meredith Reed can't get her information out. Chloe and Arlo track down Jack's buddy and get Cole out of jail to help.

The series finale is next week and I don't really care. Jack will go on revenging and the world goes on.

Score: 8.5/10
