Mantains The Level And Delivers Mostly Wonderful Entertaining

Second Episode introduces the changes to the old formula (although there is little difference, and no jump forwards yet) and succeeds. It continues to be intense and rushed. If there's weakness in the plot is very well covered. The new characters are introduced deeper and the plot moves forward with class and in spectacular fashion.

Jack is now doing what he does best. He is on a race to stop attacks against President Heller... and then some? The twists won't be so shocking as in the golden days of the show but it's spectacular, it's true to its plot and doesn't have intention to boast an awful subplot or any ludicrous thing. The best thing of this new series (after its transition to the present days and introducing technology and drones as an unthinkable menace) is that are just 12 episodes. So the main plot is always present and always in movement and urgency. There is no transitions. Although there's dialogs and characters development. But in this second episode (very much like the first) is a great amount of action. The suspense never stops.

The actions and the limits that Jack Bauer is crossing to its goal are being very exciting and fairly fresh to the character.

Live Another Day has hooked me. And it will hook everyone who want to enjoy the bumpy ride. I hope that the level will be the same to the rest of episodes and I hope that this will reach an unforgettable and worthy climax to the series. The plot is promising and the execution delivers!
