I finally got to watch this tonight--thank you, DVR!
Not quite sure what relevance Connor's character can have next week, but I'll watch just to see his hotness so 24 has guaranteed themselves one more in their audience one more time.
It isn't enough to keep me watching after Connor is gone, though. It looks like it's probably a pretty good show, but it's so hard to get into without knowing everything that went on before, so that sorta made it hard to care about what was happening in the scenes Connor wasn't in.
Perhaps I'm merely a victim of my one-track mind. Oh well, a person can only watch so much tv any way.
