Plausibility is something I've never demanded from tv shows--except within whatever terms they've already set up for themselves. But they have to be good!
24 was both predictable and repetitive, at least to the extent that it was drip torture watching it most of the time. The daughter is still kidnapped. Phone call. Shooting someone's kneecap to make them talk. Phone call. Being shot at. Two calls. Oh no who's the mole. Phone call. Kneecap. The daughter is still kidnapped. Etc. Absurd's fine, but even absurd has to stay new and avoid dumb!
