I don't think her character is dead, just knocked out cold. Which is perfect because you know they want whatever info she has and who she knows...but now theres no way to get it from her (at least right away) while she is knocked out.
Yea, I am sensing Tony dying this season too. Its too bad because I think hes been my favorite character through the last 3 seasons. While I would like to see him be heroic and re-instated for his duties, maybe by Michelle who is apparently at Division...24 isn't known for its "happy endings" as you all know. Either way going out heroically saving Jack and the country again would be appropiate I suppose given that he has hit bottom as "The Inquisitor Sebastian" would say.
I liked Edgar's quick thinking in seeing Sarah was innocent. Yea, shes a hottie too. I liked her in Boomtown and am glad I get to see her in something else as well.
One observation about this season...to dove-tail on what I said above. By now I am *convinced* they have changed the format of this show from previous seasons. Granted, there is still a long arc that will span the whole season (for the most part) but it doesnt seem as long or as epic as previous seasons. They have also REALLY made a change in the pace of each episode. They are really trying to make it so you can tune in each week and see something happen and something resolved in the same episode, instead of taking 2-3 episodes to resolve mini arcs. For example...
The resolved the kidnapping very quickly early on.
2 episodes ago the episode started where 120+ nuclear plants were under control.
By the end of that same episode it was down to 6.
At the end of last episode Jack escapes a trap and realizes there is a mole.
Begining of this episode, Sarah framed by mole. End of episode, real mole found.
In past seasons of 24 they would have kept things going just a bit longer. They seem to be quickly bringing up problems, then solving them quickly, sometimes in the same episode. This is definitely a different format, and a sign that Fox execs dont seem to think the audience can keep up, or that they will lose viewer interest if something isn't resolved immediately.
So far it hasnt dramatically changed my opinion of the show, or its feel, but it does seem a bit odd right now. I will be better able to judge at the end of this season to see if I had watched 1 well planned out arc, or a number of smaller ones. I hope its the former, like the prior seasons...but it might be the latter, which would be a letdown IMO.
