re: amnesia. oh yeah, i totally forgot about that (pun). i agree that the wife was annoying as hell and whinned 2much. i cheered when the wife died, as i noted before. on the other hand, i don't think it was as bad as kim bauer's babysitting adventures w/abusive family, or how about the fright about the cougar. let's not even talk about s3's plot-stopping agent kim bauer doing nothing. s2 through s3 saw the worst possible character moments everytime kim bauer was on. i mean, those were the worst moments of 24, not the amnesia of s1. that's why i think s1 was still very strong. none of the latter seasons have matched the point-to-point strength of s1. hopefully, s6 comes back strong.

i haven't read all the comments but i always felt his potrayal of logan was very nixon-ian. in another words, "i am not a krook."

re: s4&5 was good in bursts. senator heller is just kick ass. first he's an awesome actor, second, i laughed so hard when he started touting guns. talk about a senator in action, lol! that's just so funny. i didn't think 24 was going to last this long either. when i watched the pilot when it first aired (somn i don't do anymore), i thought it was gimmicky and it wouldn't last (there weren't a lot of character moments in pilot to hook me in).

I agree -- I was really rooting for him and Jean Smart. I'm happy for Kiefer and the show. (I have to admit I'm a fan of 4 of the 5 actors who were nominated, and was rooting for Denis Leary. I was mistaken in thinking Kiefer had won before, but it must have been a Golden Globe.)

Did anybody get the bonus disk at Best Buy? None of the sets at my BB had any external indicator that there was an exclusive disk inside, so I am quite skeptical, having encountered this problem in the past.

Please describe any sticker if you got the extra disk inside.

It has a sticker on the bottom left hand corner with the BB logo and saying that there was a bonus disc inside. So yeah, if it's in there, it should say so.

Thanks very much. I guess I'll have to ask them to check in the back room or return the set I bought.
