Warning: Spoilers
8th season of 24 is going good. I openly criticized 6th and 7th seasons because they were horrible and after a point, you couldn't keep up with them. But 8th season is a comeback for this show.

Particularly this episode was one of the classics, till the end of it, I felt all intensity and anxiousness of Bauer, because writers did their job properly. And also, writers do not force us to show who is good or bad. They give you a choice, you can take side of General who tries to capture President Hassan and save Manhattan or you can take side of President Taylor who tries to keep peace negotiations continuing. This is something rare we see in this show.

But actually, I cannot understand that some people keep going harsh on 8th season, okay I admit it, I am bored of nuclear or radiological bombs too. But there is a consistency in this season, no need to mention of individual performances. There is no African terrorists who infiltrate White House. There is no any sign of discrimination towards Muslims or any other group. This season is good and we cannot criticize writers because of the previous seasons.
