24 Season Four has Jack facing mid-eastern extremists. The plot is solid (as is the acting) and the action is just plain awesome. As common to 24 however, there are a lot of things that happen that are quite frustrating :p. But really this is a great season of 24 and worth watching whether you are a fan or not.

On a side note, I got my slim pack of Season 4 at a sale at an electonics store, I can't believe the ridiculous price Amazon is asking for these slim packs online.

And I thought the last three season were good, season 4 is jam packed with action and a thought out sophisticated plot as usual.

Just like the previous three seasons of "24", Season Four will take you on a 24-hour thrill-ride, with mind-blowing action, drama, and twists and turns in every episode. Though the basic formula of the show is the same (CTU is still fighting terrorism, Jack Bauer is still really intense, etc.), the writers/producers are still able to produce some fantastic dramatic scenes, not exactly an easy feat after three years.

However, what really sets this season apart from the previous three is its focus on the relationship between characters. First, there is the relationship between Bauer and Audrey Raines, who is pulled into the terrorism when her father, the Secretary of Defense, is abducted early in the day. Her relationship with Jack is tested in nearly every episode, and that pairing ultimately provides the most drama of the entire season.

Also, agent Michelle Dessler is back, this time as head of CTU, and her rocky relationship with former CTU agent Tony Almeida is showcased throughout the season. Though I won't give away all of Tony's involvement in this fourth season, I will say that he at least plays a part in the day's activities.

So far, after watching the first four seasons of "24", each season has had a certain plot or character "thread" that really made the show come alive for me. In Season One it was the confliction of President David Palmer. In Season Two it was the all-out intensity of Jack Bauer. In Season Three it was the downright horrors of biological terrorism. Thus, in Season Four, the "thread" I enjoyed the most was the relationships between many of the main characters. The terrorism-stopping plots were still interesting, and the action scenes were still intense, but (at least to me) this season really was all about the relationships.

I am very interested to see what "thread" will hook me in Season Five!

This is the most exciting, addicting, inspiring show of all time. This is definately the best show I've seen. Buy every season of this show, you'll want them in the future

Great!!! LOVE the 24 series. I have all to date, and plan to collect all of them. Not a single bad episode. Can't say enough good about it.

Love this series. My daughter and I watch these 24 Series together. We love the thrill and excitment. Was a big fan of the show when it was on TV and really enjoy seeing them again. You really see the details by watching them again.

Each season of 24 has been amazingly creative and "edge of your seat" entertainment. So, if you like counter-terrorism plots, this is the best.

better than season 7 and 8. the best season of all of 24. no doubt. although this slim pack thing is expensive. just buy it used.

My husband and I loves "24" we have been fans since the beginning for my husband and I came along for the ride in part of season two. We've purchased all the series we won't at this time. The only season I won't purchase is season 5, we didn't like it at all. This season was my most recent purchase from Amazon, it was on sale for under 25.00, I don't know what the deal is about the slim pack, I guess it's to save on packing, so long as it's not missing in parts, it's fine. My purchase price has ranged anywhere from 17.99 to 40.00. I agree with one viewer who wrote on a side note about how ridiculous the price point is from Amazon for the slim pack. You can get these series for less from other electronic stores like I have recently. Just look out for the value. I'm just sorry to see "24" ending, it's been a wild run!

Had to have these. It is the best show on TV and I have ordered all 7 years from Amazon.
