I too was saying that this was the only way that the season could end. They had built this storyline to an insurmountable peak (president palmer killed, president logan found dealing with terrorists, nuclear threat, world war threat, etc.). The only way to maintain some type of sanity next season is to start over. I read in the recent TV Guide that one of the show's executive producers had said that there are some huge changes for next season. Looks like your hypothesis is correct.ronjour lockehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18331759911041673074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32439216.post-18742050354048167692007-05-26T19:07:00.000-05:002007-05-26T19:07:00.000-05:00I have watched from Day 1 literally and this year was by far the worst. I hope 7 is better for the sake of you all. As for me.

Granted, that was the best episode of the season (quite cathartic), but it completely killed the momentum of the show. <I>24</I> has been known to effectively resolve one storyline while introducing another (equally interesting) one, but this was not a good example. After Fayed’s capture, the plot limped along until the very end, with only a few brief high points.<BR/><BR/>I’ll admit, I have yet to watch seasons 3-5, so I could be missing the “big picture.” But from a pure storytelling standpoint, I think the early resolution sucked most of the tension/excitement out of the plot. Overall, I found the season finale to be a disappointment.Cap Stewarthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17672605971033296263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32439216.post-87913634077610512192007-05-24T14:08:00.000-05:002007-05-24T14:08:00.000-05:00Bullseye.

Looking at things like the China mess in 4-6 and Nina in 1-3, I definitely see what you mean. The future is wide open for Day Seven. And yes, the silent clock was perfect as Jack pondered what comes next.
