Yet another update:

It would appear that with Mary Lynn's (Chloe) pregnancy, she will have to step aside for a few episodes midway through the season when her baby is due, and may or may not be back by season's end. However, the good, or bad news depending on how you liked him, is that Carlo Rota (Morris O Brian) will be coming in to stand in for her while she leaves to attend to some "plot point" that draws her away from her duties.


Further good news though is it sounds like she survives another season cool
Looking forward to Morris' return though.

Hey guys, new 24: Exile trailers (6 of em) are out and about. Keep in mind, they're workprints, and I'm sure that's why the voice over is pretty lame. Check 'em out at 24fans.net.

I'm so excited. cool

Well, that certainly looks different. And Peter McNicol is back, awesome. Maybe the writer's strike wasn't such a bad thing after all.

Just wanted to congratulate Zeljko Ivanek (Alexis Drazen) on his emmy nomination. I believe this is his first big nomination, and it has been a long time coming.

Yeah, from the trailers it feels different from normal 24, but can work for a few hours only. Also lol@ thinking Hilary would be president. Speaking of presidents, where the hell is Wayne? I am assuming he is better at this point.

I guess they wrote him out. Good riddance. D.B Woodside is the worst actor ever on 24(besides the guy who played Teddy Hanlin in Season 1)

Well in fairness, they've done the black president thing twice. As far as Wayne, all the doctors cautioned that waking him up could have very serious consequences. He's either better and the Cabinet wouldn't let him back, braindamaged and still recovering or dead. Or he could have simply chosen not to take that stress back on after an injury like that.


Preview is good. But could John Voight be a bit more obvious as a villian. I think that sneer in every shot needs to be deeper. tongue

Liked the Requiem for a Dream music in preview 4,5 and 6 even if that theme is overused.

My 2 cents,

This looks incredible, as a 2 hour movie it looks amazing. The subject matter of the film is very deep and strikes a chord with events happening in Africa today. Depending on how it is executed, it might be a worthy contestent in the emmy race for best made for tv movie, if it qualifies in that category. As for the details, bringing in Powers Boothe and Peter MacNichol to help bridge the gap (even though they may not be in the regular season) is a brilliant idea. Also, my favorite of the trailers is definitely the last 3 with the requiem for a dream music (although it is overplayed) Can that theme be overplayed really? The last 3 are just more emotional, and strikes a chord with the emotional aspects of the film (the African children etc) and the action scenes at the end are way better.

I believe the new President is a woman. Definitely good-riddance to President Pocket-Pool. It would be a great thing if America elected a black President someday. But an awful thing if they elected someone as incompetent as him, regardless of color.
