We’ve been sucked in by the commercials we’ve seen as of late for the 8th season of 24. Yup, the marketing got to us.
We watched season 1 and season 2 way back when. At the time, we were pregnant with Evan and then home with a newborn baby. Watching 24 on our deluxe 13″ tv was something we did as I sat on the couch nursing and Mark paced around with a fussy new baby. After season 2, we bailed on it not because it wasn’t good but because we didn’t want to be scheduling our life around a tv show (remember, those were pre-DVR days).
So, I am publicly announcing that I just bought used copies of season 3, season 4, and season 5. After we’ve gotten through all 18 discs or so (what in the world am I committing to?), we’ll get the next seasons and get all caught up.
I’m justifying it by thinking it will be great to take to China with us when we (eventually) travel to pick up our daughter.
Here’s to hoping 24 isn’t in season 24 by the time we catch up.
