The headline makes fun of this individual, but I'm very excited that someone took the time to list every bad guy Jack Bauer killed during eight seasons and a TV movie of "24". The man even gave us short descriptions of how Jack killed the person. My personal favorites being, "Stabbed in chest by a screwdriver thrown by Jack", "Jack killed this terrorist by biting down on his neck and ripping out his jugular" and "Jack killed this soldier with his final stick of dynamite." That last one is great, because you know he must have killed a few people with his other sticks of dynamite (he did).
When all is said and done, the researcher concluded that Jack had a hand in killing 266 people during the eight years "24" was on the air. Including the movie, that's almost 30 people per day, as each season of "24" took place in a single day.

What the show never depicts is all the paperwork Jack, or someone, had to file after all these kills. I know the F.B.I. makes their people file a report for every shot they fire. C.T.U. must have some similar procedure in place considering they are a government-run agency. They must have a whole level of their office dedicated to reports Jack had to file for shooting lots of bullets and killing lots of people.

That is so absurd. The thought of someone killing 50 people in a day (season six) is pretty ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the most ridiculous part is all of those kills are pretty much close range or even hand-to-hand combat. It's not like he placed a bomb in a crowded place and then blew it up. He usually went in with a handgun and a badass attitude.
ReplyDeleteLike the song choice, very appropriate. I was surprised that season 3 (one of the better ones in my opinion) had the second fewest kills but perhaps the most shocking one, Ryan Chapelle.
ReplyDeleteI think Jack capping Curtis in Season 6 was the most shocking. He couldn't have clipped him or anything? He had to shoot him in the neck? What a douche.
