24: Legacy Season1.

Fresh from her role in Homeland Miranda Otto and Jimmy Smits join handsome Corey Hawkins from The Walking Dead and fresh from playing Dr Dre in Straight Outta Compton.

With a top cast and a lot of shit apparently going down 24: Legacy is going head to head with Otto's last show Homeland weekly on Sundays and Monday nights in the USA. Which terrorist show will come up trumps?

So in Australia an audience of 17.4 million, WTF, AMAZING, the Channel 7 CEO would have sex with someone else inappropriately!

But no 17.4 is the lowest rating post Super Bowl show since 2003, with Alias.

Who gives a shit though about ratings, 24: Legacy like those 24 series before it is fun, pure fun. Unreal and completely unrealistic but pure escapism and that's what we all need in the Trump/Brexit/Bernardi era.

With two episodes down over two nights we have another ten to come, here is a brief (thirty seconds) look at episode three. I'm sold, fun, brain at the door kinda TV, nice.
