Indeed he has!

"like Portia de Rossi, she's non-American (grew up in Australia)"

When was he a heavy? Probably his highest-profile serious role was as the hero of Forbidden Planet, and in The Poseidon Adventure he's fairly heroic until he gets killed off.

MANMEET

That wasn't one of the hackers. That was Jack's Serbian pal who helped him rescue Chloe.

Common sense dictates that the only way to block that final scene with Kate and the marines and have it be believable is for her to a) put her body between Jack and the bullets and b) immediately start shouting authoritatively that Jack is in her custody, and back it up with body language. And lo and behold, that's

It's 6 and 7.

You really think that, based purely on looks, Strong ranks significantly higher than Pedrad, Bayer, Wells, or arguably McKinnon (depending on how one feels about the crazy eyes)? I know attractiveness is subjective, but that's a stretch.

"Still, it was easy to buy into the reality of the show in the first two seasons."

And 4th-generation politician, sort of: Her great-grandfather, Tommy Douglas, was the socialist premier of Saskatchewan, and a hero in Canada.

Typical Melchett

He's in Witness Protection running a mosque in Canada.

The one time I remember Bauer deliberately killing innocent people is in S3, when he started the prison riot that almost certainly resulted in the deaths of guards. Other than that, he usually shoots people who are guilty of something (e.g. the child rapist he shot and beheaded at the beginning of S2) or shoots
