damion75 0 #1 April 18, 2004 Ok, how bored am I? I have finally joined the '24' generation, and it is clear to me that Jack Bauer is so much tougher than anyone else on the screen (the Terminator doesnt count since he was a machine!) But I may be wrong... I also couldn't think of any more women (Barb Wire just didnt cut the mustard!) but I would love to be proved wrong... I have tried to keep this to characters who have been in more than one thing (apart from Nikita) or the field of choice would be too wide.*************** Not one shred of evidence supports the theory that life is serious - look at the platypus.

peacefuljeffrey 0 #15 April 20, 2004 You forgot Spenser -- not the Robert Urich Spenser but the other guy, what'sisname? Joe Mantegna. They did a t.v. movie adaptation of one of the Robert B. Parker novels a few years ago, called Small Vices SPENSER is a BADASS! (The Spenser character in the novels is really really cool, and way harder than that 24 pussy. I watched the first episode of 24 and decided I thought the writing/acting/dialogue were all shit, so I've never watched it since. Hokum cliche, the whole show.)
