>Jack joined the United States Army, completing the Special Forces Operations Training Course and graduating from the John F. Kennedy School of Special Warfare. He served as an instructor for the Special Forces Robin Sage Exercises and the "Q" Course Phase III Training programs, and met Richard Walsh, who would become something of a mentor to him. Through a third-party invitation by Walsh, Jack joined the elite 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta, commonly known as Delta Force, and rose to the rank of captain. While in Delta, he took part in classified missions all over the world, many of them in the Balkan countries in eastern Europe. These included Operation Closed Coffin in Hac, Operation Lost Paradise in Chechnya, Operation Downtown in Pristina, and Operation Collegiate in Belgrade. Bauer's decorations included the Purple Heart and Silver Star. Eventually, Jack ended his term of active duty, but remained a reserve officer in Delta Force and was periodically reactivated to lead critical missions.

>While in the Green Berets, Bauer saw action in the Persian Gulf region

>After his term of duty, Jack attended the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department Special Weapons and Tactics school and joined the Los Angeles Police Department as a SWAT specialist

>Some years before Day 1, Richard Walsh and his colleague Christopher Henderson invited Jack to join the Counter Terrorist Unit, a specialized CIA program Walsh had helped spearhead that investigated and neutralized domestic terrorist threats.

Is there a fictional TV or movie character that can defeat Jack in a 1 v 1? Regular humans only. Before you drop some retard's name, read the above biography and consider what Jack has done in 24.

So he killed some iraqis, big whoop. I survived covid-19. Twice.

Capt is too a regular human. And then the MCU happened and power creep sunk in because he's popular. Before that, he was just a human at their peak and that's it

If we're looking at similar shows/genres, then Peter Quinn in Homeland maybe? Problem is 24 is much more silly so Jack gets to be a lot more superhuman.
>>
>>215371084
Which only makes you a PEAK performing human. Nothing more, nothing less. You're a moron

I'm halfway through season 1. First time watcher. Jack is super kino and I am jealous that boomer had such great media role models.
>>
>>215371445
Wish I could watch it all for the first time again. Enjoy anon, my favorite season was 4.
>>
>>215371359
we have actual retarded people in the thread wow
>>
>>215371445
>>215371463
I just finished my rewatch literally an hour ago, although I am skipping season 9. I saw that once and have no interest in seeing it again.

Enjoy, anon, I think it's fairly consistent throughout. Don't forget there is a film set inbetween the 6th and 7th seasons.

Season 4 might be my favourite as well, it has that great episode where air force one explodes and those random campers get the nuclear codes, that's probably the most memorable episode for me. Really fun concept.
>>
>>215371115
Absolutely BASED Peter Quinn poster. He did not get enough credit while the show was airing. Easily my favoruite character.

>>215371445
You are in for some all time top tier TV. Jack only gets better. Also, pay attention to Tony Almeida when he shows up, he is amazing. I love it all, but for me it's S7.
>>
>>215371575
I re-watch it all every 2 years. It has infinite re-watch value. My absolute favourite is the attack on the White House, the best portrayal in all of movies and tv
>>
>>215371463
Thanks man. I could tell after a few episodes that this is one of those shows that fans would love nothing more than to watch it for the first time again.
>>
>>215371480
Do you not know what an Olympian is, you feckless faggot
>>
>>215371595
>>215371614
Quinn is great, one of my favourite characters in all of television. As for 24, that's a really good choice for best episode.
>>215371667
Since I've already mentioned it in this thread, I'd also recommend Homeland. 24 is a very fun show, Homeland is more grounded and serious, both are very much worth watching though.
>>
>>215371673
Jesus Christ you waste of air, even the best athletes specialize in one area - Bolt is the fastest runner, but he can't lift heavy things, a wrestler can't high jump, etc. Cap is ALL of those COMBINED at PEAK human level. He is superhuman. You fucking retard.
>>
>>215371739
Lmao, you're so mad. For years, he was only as good as a normal human could get, nothing more. It wasn't until the MCU that he got more powerful than a regular vanilla human. Your asshole is leaking
>>
>>215371786
Yes I am, because you are illiterate, read the OP you monkey faggot

>TV or movie character

Do you see comics in there you tripple nigger?
>>
Can somebody like Jack actually exist or be as proficient in real life?
>>
>>215368340
That’s not even that impressive. IRL SF guys have way more impressive accomplishments.

Robert Howard
Mike Vining
Roy Benevedes
Jake McNeace

I could go on but if your highest award was the silver star that’s not that great. If you aren’t rocking at least a distinguished service cross you weren’t anything special.

He was an officer in the 90s era of US Special Warfare? He'd be fucking useless in a fight and stand there in his leather jacket saying "if i tell ya id have to kill ya..." Then he'd go back to doing jackshit

Probably not but that's because Jack is functionally immortal. He's pretty much like Batman in his universe

Jack went 1v1 against all kinds of operatives, US traitors from different SF, UK SAS, etc.

Dread has no hand to hand skills except tossing people around and fires smart weapons. He would have no chance with normal weaponry.

Good thing he doesn't carry normal weaponry, then.

Does that only mean guns, then? These rules are incredibly unclear, anon, and always seem to benefit Jack Bauer.

Try telling that to Guan Yu
>>
>>215368340
The writers, when they write nother season
His character had the perfect ending in the original run and then that weird cashgrab half-season thing pops up and he's back being tortured by commies forever
>>
>>215375084
Total coincidence
>>
>>215375123
I'm still waiting for Tony to save him in a miniseries.
>>
>>215375155
If the writing in season 9 (and TV in general) is anything to go by, I'd rather they just left the characters alone. That said, bring back Nina as a half cyborg
>>
For a time, Kiefer Sutherland was the highest paid actor ever for his role as Jack Bauer in 24
>>
>>215375182
Lmfao that can probably work. The actress is in her 50s now though.
>>
>>215375245
very based
>>
>>215375182
Nina needed to live longer
>>
>>215375255
Recast her, she had some work done to keep her alive.
Actually, the new season is set in the future, Jack Bauer got frozen, and thawed out to work at CTU in the year 2055. Terrorists are threatening technology using big emps that take out all tech in a 10 mile radius, so Jack has to use good old fashioned human intuition in a world where people rely too much on technology to function properly now, hence why they unfroze him.
There's a new mole in CTU and it's some woman-cyborg, who turns out to be Nina.
>>
>>215375336
I would watch it kek

Fuck they don’t make em like 24 anymore
>>
>>215375371
>rips off demolition man shamelessly
You activated my trap card, anon, because this was my plan all along. Sylvester Stallone was the star in Demolition Man, and who else did he play? Rocky. No not Rocky, Judge Dredd. This is how we get Bauer vs Dredd. This made a lot more sense in my head 10 minutes ago, I think I need to go to bed.
>>
That episode where there’s a mole inside ctu so Jack goes to the nearest 7-11 and beats the Indian behind the counter until he gives him a goddamn name

Anyone who isn't a giant fucking faggot who needs recognition while wasting more than 20 years on this website can chime in?
>>
>>215375388
I'll be honest, most of the seasons sort of blend into one for me, not that I mean that in a bad way.
>>215375440
I think it's a really fun show. It's this weird blend of kind of silly but also completely sincere and genuine. I watched it for the first time maybe 4 years ago so this opinion doesn't come from nostalgia or anything like that.
>>
>>215375519
kek'd, it's more like 18 years, how dare you

I was such a Bauer fan. I even had the Satchel of Doom he carried around to dispense death and destruction. I carried the school stuff everywhere with that bag and it ended up epilating the hairs on my right leg hip region from all the friction. University projects were all rush till the last minute affairs. " I don't have time for this!" was a regular utterance. When important shit was done the triumphant brassy 24 theme would start playing in my head.
I was so retarded and it was all so good.
