Why '24' Has Jumped the Shark

As the last season of '24' continues to its end, it's not hard to see that if it has not already done so in the last season or two, the show has clearly "jumped the shark" this season.

While I'm still a fan of some of the action drama, the show has simply become a ridiculous parody of itself. Forget about all of those "that's totally unrealistic" moments though. The most absurd fact is that President Taylor (who I believe became president in anticipation of a potential Hillary presidency) is willing to risk a nuclear attack in New York City that could kill potentially tens of thousands of Americans in order to save a "peace deal" signed at the United Nations. She acts as though a "peace deal" is the holy grail the world has waited for since the beginning of the time and she will do anything for the "greater good" and unimaginable "sacrifices."

Come to think of it, after looking at the leadership of the U.S. today, perhaps President Taylor is all too real - and that's why Americans are finally getting completely tired of it.
