"You're hurting me now"- Graham "Trust me, I'm not"-Jack

So I went on some message boards to see how everyone was feeling about this new plot twist between Jack and his brother. The first thing I learned was that people on message boards have too much time on their hands, but then I saw that the feedback was mostly favorable.

It seems that initially a lot of people thought that it was very unbelievable that Super Terrorist Guy from season 5 would be Jack's brother, but then came around to the idea. I agree with the people who think that this will add depth to Jack's character by being able to learn more about his family life. I personally don't think it's unreasonable that Graham (or Graem) would be Jack's brother because in his mind, the treasonous acts he committed in day 5 were for the good of the country. He seems himself as a patriot, which Jack does too, only I guess Graham became disillusioned at some point. Probably because his brother is the most bada** superhero guy on earth, and who would want to live in the shadow of Jack Bauer?

Of course not everyone agrees with this and some people felt that this plot twist made no sense and had no justification. They felt the writers were not really thinking it through when adding it into the show, and are very skeptical as to whether this will work out. Others are wary but willing to be patient to see if it's a good twist that will lead to entertaining tv, or if it will just become ridiculous.

Most people think that Josh, Graham's son, looks suspiciously like Jack and Kim (Jack's daughter) but agree that that plot twist wouldn't make much sense and would be very soap opera. Jack would still have been married to his wife Terri at the time of his conception, and no one thinks that Jack would have cheated on his wife.

There was also a lot of discussion to the question of if Kim is dead. Many message boarders, somehow, remembered that it was mentioned that Kim lived in Valencia during season 4 with a boyfriend, which is where the bomb went off. Since then, she's gotten a new boyfriend and is probably no longer living there, and if she was Jack would probably be flipping out, not scaling buildings much like Spiderman. I was just amazed that people remembered this tiny detail and made that connection, even though most don't think that she's dead as of right now.
