I missed the season premiere, just like I did last year, and figured I was done for for the season. I have no way to tape shows, and don't have cable, let alone Tivo. I was going to explore if I could find it online, but I'm not usually that savvy about finding free things I shouldn't on the Internet. So, I was going to give up on the season, leaving it as another one I'd just DVD in the future.
But I turned it on, the only alternative being a silly awards show, and - damn - it got me by the throat and throttled me. And the ending. Wow. I'd forgotten how riveting that show could be. Hell, I forgot how riveting television could be. My jaw was on the ground.
This will be my first appointment television since, well, the first couple of seasons of (pre-second job) 24. (Note: I think The Wire is great, but have never been able to watch it live.)

go to Youtube.com and see if you can't find the season premiere there
I love 24. The entire season premiere is supposed to be out on DVD today. But, I'm sure you could read up on the hours you missed and be all caught up!
Download it off of iTunes! $1.99 for each hour.
If you don't mind downloading ripped DVDs--Fox released the 1st four episodes on DVD to entice more viewers--you can download them via BitTorrent.
No need to pay for the resource pain that is iTunes, and if you need some help, let me know and I will help set you up.
Besides, it is in keeping with my attempt to continue to get more people addicted.
here is the entire series in streaming video, including the first four episodes of of season 6.
The quality isn't always perfect, but the price damn sure is.
This is off your topic, but California Teacher Guy at http://californiateacherguy.blogspot.com/ has a post about a place in Baltimore called The Book Thing, where there are free books for teachers.
Just thought you or some of your colleagues mioght be interested if you didn't know about it already.
