That's the opinion of New York Post columnist Cindy Adams.
Besides the hype and media attention and marketing mistakes made by CBS, Adams thinks that it's Couric's voice is turning off viewers. That regular network news viewers want the stronger, deeper voice of a male anchor like Charles Gibson or Brian Williams.

The rumors are that another cast-member is going to be leaving the show after tonight, and if it's who I'm hearing, this is going to be one doozey of an episode. Join me and all the other
24 fanatics as we chat live along with the show tonight. Don't forget to the get to the room early so you can get your Jack "kill-count" guesses in. As with all of our chats, you must have AIM or a compatible client. Once you have that, make sure you
check back to this very post at 8pm ET, and that's when I'll unveil the location for the super secret chat room. Until then, gravitas!

So that title is a little misleading, because neither Kiefer
Sutherland nor Jack Bauer will be in our weekly
24 chat tonight, but I can guarantee beyond a shadow of a
doubt that if they knew it existed, they'd want you to be there. So do Jack proud and come join me and all the other
24 fanatics as we chat live and keep up with the kill count (Jared won last week, boo) during the show. As
with all of our chats, you must have AIM or a compatible client. Once you have that, make sure you
check back
to this very post at 8pm ET, that's when I'll unveil the location for the super secret chat room. Until then,
gravitas!

We obviously know that Jack Bauer is going to get out of the
current pickle he's in,
especially after today's news
about three more seasons, but the fun is in the journey. So come join me and all the other
24 fanatics
tonight as we chat live during the
trip show. As with all of our chats, you will need AIM or a
compatible client (Trillian, GAIM, etc) to join the room. Once you have that, meet back here
to this very post,
at 8pm ET, and that's when I'll unveil the location for the super secret chat room. Will the President kill
Jack? Will Jack kill the President? Join me tonight and we'll find out together. Gravitas!

Someone asked last week if there was going to be anyone left standing after this season of 24. To be
honest, I have no idea. It's certainly looking like that isn't it? Let's see who's been on for more than one season and
is still alive-- Wayne Palmer, the recently assassinated president's brother, who is currently running for his life
through sewers from mysterious men. Aaron Pierce, the stalwart secret service agent, who's already had a couple of
close calls and was last seen canoodling with the First Lady. Chloe O'Brian, the ever annoyed computer technician who
has stayed by Jack's side when most wouldn't. Will any of these regulars make it through the night, let alone the end
of the season? Sound off and let me know, then join me
back here at 8pm EST to this very post and
that's when I'll unveil the location for the super secret chat room. As with all of our chats, you'll need AIM or a
compatible messenger, so make sure you have one and I'll see you tonight. Gravitas!

I figured since he
took on MacGyver last week, he should take on the MacGyver team this week. Let me know who you think would win, then
come back here to
TV Squad at 8pm EST and that's when
we'll unveil the secret room for our Live
24 Chat. As with all of our chats, you must be using either AOL's
AIM or a compatible chat client (GAIM, Trillian, etc) to enter the room. I'll be in
there under the user ID of TVSRyan and Tom Biro (TVSquadTom) will probably be joining us this week again as well. Word
is that Jack is going to go underground and pretend to be a terrorist (like he hasn't done that before) -- is
tonight the night? Come join us at 8pm EST and we'll find out.

you check back to TV Squad tonight at 8pm EST, and we'll unveil the location of the chat room. As with all of our

Hey guys and gals, our
24 Live Chats have been getting such a great reaction,
that we've decided to extend them beyond just the season premiere! So as long as you guys keep demanding them, and we
keep getting a good turnout, we'll keep doing them. Make sure you check back here tonight at 8pm EST, and we'll unveil
the location of the chat room. As with all of our chats, you must be using either AOL's

anything be able to top the shocks of last week's premiere? It's hard to say, but I'd put money on "yes".
