I'm trying to catch up for season 4 of 24 right now, and I'm about halfway through 24 season three. I am SO pissed off by how they made their menus. It's full of fucking spoilers. They show quick scenes in the beginning, like most DVDs, but it shows that

Spoiler

Nina will be in this season

... I know it's obvious, but I wanna be suprised when it suddenly happens.

Now each DVD has 2 pictures for the background from that disk when you choose the episode. Usually it shows some characters face or something. This time it shows that

Spoiler

the virus will start infecting people and get out

Are they stupid or something. Do I have to close my eyes the next time I put a disk in and try to pick the right episode or something? Goddammit.

And some people whine when we say we don't want to hear spoilers, or see the previews. Fox gives too much stuff about 24 away beforehand, whether it's DVD menus, or just their 24 commercials.

That's true, I got spoiled on the Season 4 commercials too, but I should've expected that when I saw it. This is different, this is the DVD... they know people buy these if they missed the season... ahh forget it, I'll just close my eyes when I pop in the next DVD.

That's nothing, wait until you get to disc 6 and they show that the President gets infected.

I think 24 season 3 kinda sputtered out around when that British guy espcapes the building with Tony's help. Up until then it was awesome.

Most people buy the DVD after watching the show on TV first so that is proably a reason to why they filled the DVD with spoilers, It still stupid though.

Also i heard about fox been crap with the previews so i am glad i watch it on skyone, although they can be rather crap with putting some spoilers in previews at times to

Haha...it was all my idea!

You're joking I know I know...

FOX was so stupid with their 24 trailers in the past.
I remember that trailer from season 2 where Lynne was falling to her death. Nice one FOX! :lol

 

[SKluck]

Weirdos. Does it kill all the entertainment finding out little bits ahead of time? Some of you guys are so obsessive about it, it's insane.

 

[hooded pitohui]

heh, I remember the season 2 DVD's zooming in on a map of california after you selected something, and a little target centered on LA with the words "LOCATION COMFIRMED" (sic).

Thanks for saying what I could not, for fear of being labelled a grammar Nazi.

 

[open_mouth_]

I just either turn off the TV or change the input mode so the DVD is not showing, then get the episode to start playing by memorizing the key presses.

I was pissed off by season 2 spoilers too

Took me forever to figure out what you meant by that. The reason I put "an" is because it originally said asshole. Then I wrote the topic, and then went back and changed it to jackass for the whole Jack Bauer Action Hour thing. But whatever.

:lol
I thought you were saying that there was a silent, invisible J in in

Spoiler

Nina

, which would make the show all the more interesting.

Well duh. It's Bob who's silent.
