Season 1:
>Jack's kill count stays at 7 people for over half the season, and there's only 3 more on top of his total kill count when he completely loses it in the final hour
>Jack can only speak English, he screams at the slavs who communicate and taunt him in Serbian
>He fights like a bitch; without his gun he's useless
>The whole plot is stopping an assassination attempt on a US Senator while trying to get his family back from kidnappers related to the plot
>Using computers to triangulate a phone's location takes over half an hour in real time
>The sunrise in the show takes over three episodes to fully complete, as does the sunset
Season 6:
>Jack kills more people in the small space of 27 minutes from 2:51 AM - 3:18 AM than he does in the entire 24 hours of the first season. He ends up killing over 5x the amount of people he did in S1 and hardly bats a sweat the whole time, certainly doesn't lose it like he did the first time round
>Jack is suddenly fluent in Arabic, Russian, German, and probably Chinese too
>He also knows Kung-Fu and can kick a whole trained army's ass
>A fucking ATOMIC BOMB is detonated in Los Angeles, killing over 10,000 people and Jack has to deal with an endless river of Slimes, Ruskies and Chinks
>CTU can triangulate a phone call within a few words that are spoken
>The "sunrise" in the final episode is impossible, as it's over half an hour before the "sunrise" in the first episode
Why the fuck do action shows feel the need to flanderize over time and forget what made them good in the first place? If they kept going the way they did for the first three seasons it would've been a lot better and probably not cancelled after it jumped the shark.
