Twelve episodes sooner than normal, we reach the end of the latest season of 24. Live Another Day has been an experiment from the off – a twist on the formula designed to breathe new life into the show and hopefully extend the longevity of the franchise for future seasons – and as we reach … >
Rather neatly actually airing between 9pm and 10pm on Sky1 tonight, we’ve reached the penultimate episode of 24: Live Another Day and, while it’s been an entertaining ride pretty much throughout its abridged run, it’s only in the past few weeks that the bar has really been raised. It’s been the introduction of Cheng Zhi … >
24: Live Another Day is moving at a frantic pace now. With only two episodes to go, this hour provides more plot points, action and reveals than perhaps all the previous combined. Having stolen the override device, it’s not long before Navarro finds himself fleeing for his life, as he and Jack engage in an … >
Well, as many speculated after last week’s episode – which didn’t end with the silent clock treatment – President Heller is still alive. This is both excellent news, and somewhat problematic. Last week’s episode dealt primarily with Heller making the decision to sacrifice himself, and the way that those around him dealt with that decision, … >

Since 24 rose phoenix-like from the ashes, it’s been on something of a roll. The streamlined episode order means that the plot has moved along at a snappy pace, and many of the pitfalls and traps that usually derail a season that has twenty four episodes to fill have been excised. Unfortunately Hour Six sees … >

The ratings behemoth that is The Walking Dead has proved that horror in the long-form format of television can be hugely successful, while other shows like American Horror Story, … >
The first Captain America film set itself apart from the rest of the Marvel franchise by being essentially a period piece, with most of the action taking place in the 1940s. The second instalment finds itself firmly rooted in the modern day and the real world, perhaps more so than any other Marvel film to … >
It’s been over 15 years since arguably the most iconic monster in cinema history made an appearance on the big screen. But the less said about Roland Emmerich’s big budget attempt to drag the mutated giant lizard into the present day, the better – it was a near total failure, and doesn’t hold up well … >
