end of the season "24"

Okay.

Admit it. That was a great season of 24.

It brought together pre-existing threads very nicely and beautifully set up future plotlines with ease. Pissed off a German spy and his government? Check. Left the death of Henderson slightly ambiguous? Check. Shadowy secret uber-agency controlling things? Check.

*SPOILER ALERT*

The Chinese Government kidnapping Jack and throwing him on a slow torture boat to China was a brilliant final twist and promises an intense 6th season, far from American shores.

But I think my favorite little bit of this season was the last minute addition of Morris, Chloe's ex-husband. That guy was like a concentrated bit of Warren Ellis goodness. He had less than 5 minutes of screen time, but he stole the show. Looking forward to more of that guy next season.

Nice job, writers of 24! Well done.
