Obviously Jack will win this poll. The greatest man who never really lived!!!! 

I've now seen every single episode of this show ever broadcast on any TV network in any country.  No spoilers in this thread please, but I've got to say though that when I watched the couple of seasons after I'd finished the first, I was shocked, surprised and ultimately pleased that Nina Myers was still on the show.  Easily the most intriguing character on the show.  Easily.  No questions or arguments from me on this one. 

I read her Wikipedia biography (I suggest you don't if you have not seen this show) to find out a bit more about the character from the writers point of view but it still does not explain her history, identity her reasons or motives for me.  A complete enigma of a character and easily the best the show has seen to date.

Stephen Saunders was my favourite villain as well.  Deserved a better send off that what he eventually got because he was one mean motherfucker.

Honourable mention to Tony Almeida as well.  Didn't really like him in Season 1, thought he was a bit of a jealous snide and not to be trusted.  Turns out he is a good guy and a hero after all.  Always was a good guy, never a villain, he just had to get used to Jack's methods that's all.

Most of the character arcs in this show are like that though.  You never know who to trust.  You'll trust the good guys for so long and they turn out villains.  Or do they?  And the villains were good guys after all and turn out heroes.  Or do they?  So many twists and easily the best show on TV.  So many characters playing each other and double crossings going on, not a minute of each episode is wasted. 

I started watching Sleeper Cell recently but it's not as fast paced and addictive as 24 even though both shows are on the same ball-park shown from different angles.  I gave up after three epiisodes.  Jack Bauer and 24 does not let you do that.  It keeps you hooked.

Kiefer Sutherland has just signed a deal worth squillians to play Jack Bauer for at least another three series.  Fantastic news for 24 geeks if you ask me.

Even though he's getting paid handsomely, it's not really good news for Kiefer Sutherland.  Jack Bauer gets played by no man, and I would imagine Kiefer will end up with a bullet in his brain one of these days.........

Like most will do i've voted for Jack Bauer. He must have titanium bollox or something to do the things he does on the show.
I've always thought that David Palmer was an excellent character on the show as well. His character may not have been the most action packed one but i just like the way that he cuts through all the shite and builds up a distant rapport with Jack and is possibly one of the few characters on the show that truely understands JAck and allows him to go about his job.

JACK BAUER, THE HARDEST MOTHERFUCKER TO WALK THE PLANET!!!!

Jack Bauer wins it for me, not just on this show, but any show . He is simply The Man.

A special mention for Curtis Manning too, another tough nut who stood by Jack all the way.

And Audrey Raines too!! Yes brother!  One I admire for much different reasons, how could you not like this girl after the day she had , with her poppa and brother,then husband and boyfriends antics then her self ...well you know what I mean.

Got to agree with you Judge, there's something about her. It must be the thought of shagging a bird with brains.

True. But you would take the risk Jmac, I know you would.

Mandy the assassin would scare me more it would definately affect yer performance ..hence leading to a certain death.
