The Poolie Goes To

And with no guest spot, you are stuck with me on this one...

24 has always been a hotbed for hated characters. Whether it was Teri Bauer, Ryan Chappelle, Sherry Palmer, Audrey Raines or the one and only Behroooooz, I have found myself screaming at the tv throughout the show's seven season run. After a yearlong break, due to the writers' strike, 24 has come back with a vengence and given us three, and maybe more, very hateable characters. Larry Moss found himself in fifth for the award, but the mother/daughter combo of President Allison Taylor and Olivia took gold and silver of this awful character olympics.

After the first gentleman has been severly wounded by a terrorist, the President reaches out to her estranged daughter and brings Olivia to the White House. She immediately becomes a nuisance, quarreling with her mother about the past and just being in the way when terrorist Juma comes to take over the White House. After most of the people being held hostage in the White House (RIP Bill Buchanan) end up alright, Olivia goes behind her mother's back to get Chief of Staff/Shawshank Warden Ethan to resign. Interestingly enough President Taylor appoints Olivia to fill in for Ethan while this tragic day continues. She makes dumb move after dumb move concluding with putting a hit on Jon Voight 'the actor's character Jonas Hodges. While not as terrible as past 24 hall of famers, Olivia definitely delivered moments of rage during this year's 24.

  20. Today, while I was at work, my sister stole my iPad and tested to see if it can survive a 40 foot drop, just
    so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now destroyed and she has 83 views.
    I know this is completely off topic but I had to share it with someone!
