“24″

I Know That “Judo” Gene Lebell Could Have Choked Him Out

Did anybody else watch “24″ last night?

I must have already told you guys that “24″ is probably the only TV show I actually watch on a regular basis.

Last night was no exception and I must say this season has been pretty exciting and full of twists and turns.

And out of nowhere legendary Gene Lebell , “The Godfather of Grappling” shows up briefly on the show and I’m driving my wife nuts:

“Hey, that’s Gene Lebell! Did you see him? That was him, right?! That’s awesome. OMG”

Even though I couldn’t admire him for very long last night, because the writers of the show had other plans. If you know what I mean……

I don’t want to give anything away, because some of you might not have seen yesterday’s episode yet.

Anyway, this is the last season of “24″ and Jack Bauer will be missed around here.

8 seasons in today’s competitive TV environment and I guess you can say they had a good run.

But I digress.

Let’s get back to “Judo” Gene Lebell who was featured here months ago. Just do a search in the archives.

And also check out this short interview. You gotta love the him:

“When in doubt, choke ‘em out!”

Jack Bauer/Kiefer Sutherland Of “24″ And The Art Of Fighting

Alright then, I have officially watched the first 4 episodes of this season’s “24″ with federal agent Jack Bauer, convincingly played by Kiefer Sutherland.

And yes, I am hooked again.

I actually don’t watch much TV anymore. Honestly, it can’t be more than 4 hours a ….. week.

Now that would be a good book title, “The 4 Hour Watch Week”. And ever since I reduced it to the current consumption level, I am getting a lot more done.

But there is definitely one TV show I really do enjoy and that is “24″ which is known to be one of the shows for adrenaline junkies (and I am not normally to be considered as such!).

Besides all the twists and turns in a “24″ script including very special effects, I of course enjoy the fight scenes with Kiefer Sutherland. I mean Jack Bauer.

I have been trying to find out what fighting style he uses to get the job done and so far I haven’t found out what it is.

To me it looks like elements of Wing Chun, JKD, Kali, Krav Maga.

Is there anybody out there reading this post who can tell me what fighting style Jack Bauer uses to make the world a safer place?
