Science fiction
From "24," season 4:
[A certain terrorist, on video tape]: People of America, you wake up today to a different world. One of your own nuclear weapons has been used against you. It’ll be days and weeks before you can measure the damage we’ve caused, but as you count your dead, remember why this has happened to you.
Buchanan [head of Counter Terrorist Unit, L.A. Division Office]: “Wake up today to a different world.”
Michelle [director of CTU Los Angeles]: Do we take that literally?
***
Okay, season 4 was the worst season yet. Not only was it ridiculously contrived, but the plot holes were so numerous and vast that I kept falling through them. Luckily, the formulaic and repetitive dialogue broke my fall every time. I think they use robots to write the dialogue. Maybe the robots are from outer space; that would help explain the literal "new world" thing.
Season 4 had some quality television moments, but very few, and nothing compared to those in the first season and a half of the series.
Vice President Logan looks like the love child of Richard Nixon and Kevin Spacey.
