24: Season Four DVD Collection [DVD]

Great series to watch!

What can one say? The series 24 is simply the most compelling TV in years. The series takes place in one 24hour period. The amount of investigation, hunting, searching and action spread out through the period is absolutely amazing. The writers themselves deserve numerous awards for their ingenuity and commitment in making the program so exciting and compelling.The program deals with attacks of all types on the USA, from virus, to gas, to nuclear bombs, abduction and murder. Jack Baur (Keifer Sutherland) is CTU's top investigator and does what it takes to hunt down and destroy whatever is threatening the integrity of the United States. Jack's life is commited to defending the States no matter what it takes. Over the years he has lost his wife, (murdered by CTU mole), he has lost contact with his daughter because of things she has suffered, directly relating to her fathers work. He has lost the woman he loves and more, he has lost his life. Jack goes on the run to hide from the American Government, the Chinese Government and comes back to CTU when called to help solve the threat.It is a must watch series to feel the full impact that this series put out to the viewer. Once you start you can't stop.Award Winning in many catagories.

Watched this when it first aired but never saw the last two series. Decided to catch up from the very start as Prime were showing it. Unfortunately they took it off the 'free list' mid season despite my howls of protest! So bought the box set instead as I resented paying per episode, seems I could buy it bit by bit but not view it as part of Prime. The 24 Series is sensational, even after all these years it is crisp, clean and full of action. My only gripe is the way the incumbents keep getting fired, tortured, harrassed and then reinstated all within the course of a couple of hours! but then it is escapism. Adore Kiefer Sutherland I could listen to that voice for hours. If I could have his dulcet tones on Sat Nav I wouldn't care where I was going as long as he was giving me directions.

Quick delivery dvd case v good con,discs play 100% ok great series great bargain very happy

I didn't find this season as compelling as others, BUT there were some standout episodes.I felt that the new characters weren't as deep as some of the old ones, and that the old characters - especially Michelle - became shadows of their former selves. That being said, my love for the character of Chloe has gone up a lot!The storyline seemed a bit bland at times, and I think a couple of episodes should actually have had some scenes cut from them or entirely rewritten. Now, the concepts themselves are amazing, but this time around it just seems a little too much and as a result some things are not working as well as they should have done.HOWEVER, a great closing episode, which unlike other seasons (unless you count the very unobvious season 2 finale) gives you a brief hint of what is to come in Season 5, which from what I hear is the viewers favourite season ever, and I for one, cannot wait to get Season 5 underway!

It is a mostly non-stop action pack series. Plenty of seasons to keep you busy.

The series is great - as are all the series of 24 but I was very, very disappointed that it (along with others series of 24) had been removed from Prime when I was halfway through watching this series and I had to purchase it in order to complete viewing. I was looking forward to working through all the box sets again but will wait and see if they return to Prime in the future

I love 24 but if one thinks about it, every series is basically the same, it just has different baddies, Some of the baddies from other series turn up in other series but it basically goes through the same scenarious of boss change at CTU, a mole at CTU, Jack being compromised, jack escaping, everyone thinking the situation is resolved but its not and so on. Non the less as stated I love 24.
