Not the News!

I'm an addict of 24, the gut-wrenching Fox action drama starring Kiefer Sutherland. Tonight they played the first 2 episodes of the season. They started 24 a little late, because one of the NFL playoff games was also on Fox. (Bears lost. Sigh.)

While we were watching on TiVo, we got a call from a friend, a fellow 24 addict, who lives in North Carolina. He had a problem. He had watched the show to the end in North Carolina, but didn't know how it had ended. His local station had chopped off the last ten minutes of the show! Why? So they could start the local news on time.

Who needs the news when you need a good shot of fiction?

He didn't want us to send
A copy of the show,
He just wanted to know -
How did it end?
