Have we gotten any newbies to share their stories?

Well, it's almost midnight here and I'm flipping through the channels and landed on TBS...which is showing an episode of 24! No clue what season or anything!

But I did recognize Tony at least.

And a female character just not sure what her name is

ETA - Ok! I looked it up. It's Day 4 - midnight to 1am

Love & Passion · 11-10-2007, 11:56 PM

That's really weird and coincidental and cool at the same time! Did you watch the episode?

bring me home · 11-11-2007, 07:31 AM

I watched what was left of it

And yep...it's a show I'd like. So, I'm going to look for s1 even harder now

Love & Passion · 11-11-2007, 09:23 PM

Yay!!!!!! You should watch s5 too...it's my favourite season.

That tic tic tick

That shocks me, that you can't find other fans but the internet. I mean here every other person watches it

Where do you live? (if you don't mind me asking)

I love your thoughts on season 5 becasue they mirrored mine

You began watching at 11?

At 11, I was still watching full house

When I was in high school some 4 years ago I had LOVED sci-fi fantasy type shows. Anything that wasnt about real life situations. I had an unhealthy obsession with Buffy and Angel and Roswell and Smallville and avoided shows like Dawsons creek. Then I started watching medical dramas like Greys and house. I was never a fan of action shows or even too much of action movies in general so 24 did not really catch my eye.

I had no time to watch shows in college, literally, I was no longer able to stop life to watch TV like I could in highschool

By my other college buddies found time. There would be like 20 of us at dinner and half would leave to watch. For a birthday celebration one night the birthday girl (THE BIRTHDAY GIRL) would look at her watch and said "Its 9!! Gotta jet! 24 is on!" and then 18 people would leave the table screaming "24 at jamies apartment! Wanna come?" leaving me and another friend to our thoughts

She was my CSI buddy, and she tried so hard to convince me to watch 24. but the idea of a show like that confused me. I kept asking "do you watch them sleep? Do you watch them eat and go to the bathroom?" It confused me

Then I came home for winter break my senior year in college and my brother literally forced me to watch it. I finished S1-5 in like 3 weeks and conned some of my friends to watch. And S6 took me so long becasue we had to wait until all our friends had free time off work and school to watch. THAT was brutal.

So that's my story

I enjoyed you guys's stories

I remember my mother watching season 3 or 4, and I was like, 'I want to watch something elseeee!!!!!!!!!!' and then I actually started watching it instead of whining (

) and I found that it was actually pretty good. Then I got addicted.

My brother is 11 and he's been watching for about a year now. I've converted him into a fan of almost every show I watch.
