In the vein of the Movie-A-Minute and Book-A-Minute reviews, found on rinkworks.com, I have made my own Series-A-Minute review of the show 24. For those of you unfamiliar with this idea, it is for those who find watching movies, books, or tv shows, too time-consuming for them but wish to know what happens anyway. I have boiled down each season of the show, 24, into a mini-story, which can be read and enjoyed in a minute or less. In doing so, I hope to have conveyed the true essense of the show and thus bring to all you busy non-viewers out there the enjoyment of each season without the expense of taking up all your time. Check our rinkworks.com for further book-a-minute and movie-a-minute reviews.

That was great! Thanks Jake, for filling me in on the last few seasons, since I only saw the first 5. Now I'm ready to see Jack in Season 9 -- I think he is the awesome-est. Mom
who's jack bauer?...giggles.
Disclaimer: Season 8 has only just begun, thus many of the events in it are made up by me in an attempt to convey what I think the true essence of the story is so far.
I will continue to disregard 24 until such a time as they decide to introduce a.) time machines or b.) terrorist attacks in space.
