Kim would have been better off sidelined this season, but instead the writers have to resort to one ridiculous scenario after another to keep Kim in harm’s way. Part of what made the first season so ingenious was Jack was constantly being emotionally distracted worrying about his wife and daughter, Kim (Elisha Cuthbert). Season 2 gets some well-deserved grief from the fan base summed up with one word: bobcat. That payoff still remains one of 24’s greatest twists. America was still in its ‘rah rah Muerica’ phase following 9-11 and it was a little too easy to be in Kate Warner’s (Sarah Wynter) shoes and consider Reza suspicious. One of my favorite aspects of this season was how the writers play on viewers’ blatant or barely there prejudices toward Middle Easterners.
