I skip 24 and I skip your summaries, so whatever…nothing against 24 per se, you see.

I feel kinda bad. oh dear. I hardly ever work. had an appointment yesterday - and probly 3 months worth of income is right there for me… but I’m changing my ways. i’m going to keep working… and not sit back and read and study and not work further for 3 months. I’m feeling quite guilty that I can work so little… like 5 hours… and live for 3 months, possibly. I PROMISE.. I’ll work more and start contributing!! Love your blogs.

Hey… ??… Rick, do you work 10-12 hours a day on jobs other than writing?? Other than journalism??

I’m really hoping that you’re being supported by your writing and journalism and news reporting/editorializing.

Merry Christmas.

With the exception of the very early morning (4-7) my whole day until 6 pm is taken up writing and editing for AT and PJM. And you have a nice holiday as well.

I couldn’t answer. I’m just starting to follow your blog after seeing you on AT.

No opinion.

Merry Christmas, Rick, and to all yours as well as your readers a Merry Christmas as well.

I have missed your reviews almost as much as I have missed the show. Please continue if at all possible. Even a briefer blog would be better than none. It provides a nice break and healthy variation on your usual political themes.

I’ve never seen the show and don’t plan on watching it this year, but it doesn’t particularly bother me if you write about it. I just sort of gloss over TV stuff generally.

While I’d love to see you start the recaps again Rick, it won’t be a show stopper if you don’t.

Play it week by week, I had the distinct impression that you loved doing them, if that passion comes forth this new season, go for it! If not, a few quick notes with fill-in material by the readers in the comments will be enjoyable too.

It’s a wash for me, Rick; I don’t watch 24 and never will. On the one hand, scrolling through your reviews distracts from the “red meat” of your blog. On the other hand, you clearly love the show and enjoy writing about it; therefore inspiring you to blog more. As long as reviewing 24 jump starts your creative juices, I say go for it. (Thank God you don’t blog your attempts at cooking like other bloggers!)

That’s because my “cooking” skills are limited to boiling hot dogs and making hamburger patties.

Like poster #3, I discovered your blog as a result of searching for commentary/coverage of “24″ and have disseminated it to a number of other “24″ diehards. I equally enjoy your commentary on all things political as I find it to be quite insightful. I voted #1 and would be quite disappointed without the episode analysis.
