Discuss 24: Legacy

They should rename it "24: CLICHE" Terrible reused stories like "Who's the mole?" Presidential campaigns plagued by traitors. Beyond silly plot lines, like a police station housing FOUR+ MILLION dollars in cash. And let's not even talk about the nickel and dime dialog, as well as the HORRIBLE acting by Jimmy Smits, who looks like he's mailing it in. And I don't mind diversity. But this feels more like a soap opera. Issac, the drug dealer who is really a 'good guy'. The shoe-horned gay story, which couldn't be more forced if they tried. If I were gay, I'd be offended at how clumsily they forced that into the story. The 'persecuted Muslim' story. The evil corporate guy who's company buys oil form ISIS or ISIL, or whatever you like to call them. The Asian American guy high up in the campaign. The Latino Senator/Presidential Candidate. The woman who is the only one who REALLY knows what's up at CTU. Christ, the only thing missing is an American Indian in a tee-pee.
Throw it all together like a salad, and dress it up with a poor retread story, and you have the least interesting and silly incarnation of "24" ever.

At least it's better than QUANTICO. Season 1 was beyond a stretch. But when Season 2 basically put Alex and Ryan in the CIA training school - and yet ANOTHER 'mole' plot line, I gave up and quit. 24 Legacy isn't nearly as bad as that.

Quantico is trash, I basically gave up on it after 4-5 episodes. 24: Legacy may not be great, but it's still a few classes higher.
