was george mason really needed in season 2 ?

what do you think on many other forums people kinda doubt whether he was really needed in the story. but i think he was as he was the director of ctu and would have still been if he hadnt been exposed to radio-active materials. Laughing

I think Mason was pretty central to the whole sesason 2 plot, he was deff. needed.

Mason added so much to the story: after Jack, he's my favourite character in Day 2. Not so much in Day 1, to be honest... he was annoying then. But in Day 2, he shows growth, we learn more about him, and I think he's a tragic figure like Ryan Chapelle: everyone hates him, but in the end, his exit makes you sympathise... and cry.

I say that he was definitely needed, because without Mason, Jack would have died in the middle of season 2!

umm ... i suppose

Mason was awesome in the way that you hated him until he got sick, then you just felt so bad for him, and besides, if it wasn't for him, Jack would have died! Then there would be no arguing on what the best season is! lol!

Mason is one of my favourite characters. He played it so well. He was definitely needed. The season wouldn't have been the same without him.

Yeah, Mason was just an awesome character. It was so sad when he had to say goodbye to his son.

It was sadder when he was in the plane. When he started to cry and shake a little.

That who plane thing was just the saddest scene ever in 24 history. I have the music from that scene and it makes me want to cry!

George Mason made Season 2 so awesome!

I'm sorry, but I'm not sure how you came to this whole starting of this thread, but without George, S2 wouldn't have been very good at all. And besides, then Jack would be dead cause he would have gone down with the Cessna!

Yes, I've got no idea how George could be seen as unimportant either XD.

He's not responding... I think we drove him away. Lol

Damn.

Well it was a PRETTY silly question to ask.

Posted: Apr 27, 2008 8:33 am

Yeah, really! That's like saying David Palmer wasn't needed.

Posted: Apr 27, 2008 8:44 am

He's easily high on the list of the good things about 24.

Posted: Apr 27, 2008 8:48 am

He had some pretty funny parts in the novels too. he was always so sarcastic.

Posted: Apr 28, 2008 10:56 am

Like saying David Palmer wasn't needed in the first one, when the whole thing was based around his assassination? XD

Posted: Apr 28, 2008 7:28 pm

That's the point. Saying Mason wasn't needed is about as true as saying David wasn't either.
