The advertisements were an instant attraction and made the series a must watch. The concept is quite good and the research gone into it is commendable. The story lines in the first series were just OK in some and good in other episodes, but it almost always culminates in an emotional or heart wrenching manner. The concept of interlinking various happening from around the world is great and well executed. The direction is pretty good as should be for a complex plot like this. The casting is pretty good. Jack Bauer without a gun is refreshing, though his perplexed look continues to fascinate. The other main characters especially the kid do a great job. The series 1 culminated quite well with lots of open ends. My skepticism lies in how they will manage to continue make it more interesting if more series are to come, the classic example being Heroes which was such an excellent concept but just got too complex to handle. Can only hope this goes in a better direction and we'll have something interesting to watch in the years to come.
