Amazon.co.uk Review
The adventures of Counter Terrorism Unit agent Jack Bauer have rarely been dull. Yet after four series of battling the bad guys in real time, some could rightfully wonder whether 24 had lots its edge, and its ability to surprise. The fifth season should put any such doubts to shame.

Set eighteen months after the dramatic finale to Season Four, things get off to a shocking and pulsating beginning. You won’t find plot spoilers in this review, yet it’s as if the writers realised they had some serious carpet-pulling to do to keep the show’s audience intrigued once again. Set, as usual, over the course of one single day, there’s then a slight lull in the first third, before things spring ferociously into life. Make no mistake: if you can overcome the usual need to suspend elements of your disbelief, this is the best series of 24 since the first, and as it winds near to its equally dramatic conclusions, it’s simply hard to take your eyes off it.

Joining the usual cast too is a procession of familiar names. Peter Weller (Roboocop), Sean Astin (The Lord Of The Rings) and C Thomas Howell (The Hitcher) are among those doing their curriculum vitae no harm, but the acting honours are taken by the wonderful combination of President Logan and his first lady, played by Gregory Itzin and Jean Smart.

With a denouement that sets up a sparkling sixth season, this fifth series of 24 is a genuinely significant achievement. It’s packed full of surprises, isn’t afraid to take a few risks, and as all good thrillers should, it keeps you on the edge of your seat for far longer than is comfortable. A superb show, very much on top form.--Simon Brew

Synopsis
Created by Joel Surnow (LA FEMME NIKITA, MIAMI VICE) and Robert Cochran (LA FEMME NIKITA, THE COMMISH), 24 assumes its familiar format of real-time action, unfolding over the course of a 24-hour period. This season, Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland) has gone underground, working on an oil rig near L.A. under an assumed name, But a series of murders targeting the few people who know Jack is still alive brings Jack back to town, just as the president is preparing to sign an arms treaty in L.A. Suddenly, Jack finds himself the prime suspect in his confidantes' murders.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning series, 23 Aug 2006
By P. Tobin (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Before this series of 24, I didn't believe that the programme makers could bring us another series on a par with Series 1, or even anywhere close to it. This series blew that theory out of the water.

Quite simply, it is unbelievable. The explosive opener is mentioned as one of the strong points of the series, but it is really eclipsed in my eyes by the fantastic level maintained throughout all 24 episodes.

The characters and character development is an essential aspect of the show's success this year. There are now characters you genuinely care about, truly despise or even feel sorrow at their respective demises. And Christopher Henderson is the greatest character creation in the show since Nina Myers.

And then there's that 3 or 4 episode run round about middle of the series that is by far my favourite storyline in 24 history - so dramatic and emotional at the same time. One of those particular episode is among the greatest achievements of TV drama that I have ever seen: my jaw was open for the entire hour and I actually must have cried at least twice (which is remarkable for me).

Don't have any hesitations about whether or not to buy this series. Make sure that you have seen the previous 4, then order your copy and enjoy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 27 May 2006
By C. J. Gehler "CG" (Wales) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Absolutely fantastic, in my opinion the best series yet. It has the the right mix of emotion and action, not a dull moment in the series. Brilliantly directed and you just wont believe how the season ends. Superb stuff, bring on season 6!

5.0 out of 5 stars Completely Absorbing - The best series to date, 14 Aug 2007
By Scully Bloke (Wiltshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
This is the 71st review of series 5 on amazon, so maybe a good summary is required.

Its the best of the series's to date. More exciting, twists, turns, action, a whopping roller coaster ride.

Its absolutely superb television best watched on dvd so that you can go at your own pace rather than await 1 episode a week.

You get more from the series if you watch the previous series's in sequence. That way you can understand the characters and their history.

Its so fast paced that some loose ends remain, and some of the action and plot seem unrealistic and a bit far fetched.

But do not be put off. This is the best TV you can watch. Simple as that. Completely absorbing, you can watch hours at a time, most people do.

This series starts of with a simple problem, that when investigated gets more complex and uncovers plot after plot.

Fantastic.
