re: #65 Charles Johnson

Never really liked 24. Far-fetched, illogical, even stupid at times. The show that totally screwed the shark for me was the one where a nuclear bomb goes off in Los Angeles and for the rest of the show there’s no mention of it at all, and no particular problems for anyone as a result. It was so ridiculous I just said “fuck this” and never watched it again.

My main problem with it was the whitewashing of torture. That wasn’t just unforgivably amoral, they knew it was antithetical to reality when they wrote it.
