Trademark sayings: "Drop your weapon," "Hundreds of thousands of people will die," "I promise you, "I give you my word," "D*** it," "We’re running out of time," "I’ll get back to you. "
Special Object(s): His gun; he never goes anywhere without it.
What we think of him: Well, he’s Jack Bauer, so obviously he’s awesome! Jack is a very brave man who is not afraid to follow his own instincts even when others disagree with him. He is willing to do anything for the ones he loves, and values his friends and most of his colleagues. Toward terrorists and on the outside, he may seem like a barbaric rock with no feelings. But, if you think this, you’re completely wrong, because on the inside, he’s a sweet, loving man who values the lives of the innocent.

Name: David Palmer
Played by: Dennis Haysbert
Status: Deceased
Season Count: 1-5

Occupation: Senator from Maryland (season 1) and President of the United States in seasons 2&3.
Family Relations: Ex-wife Sherry Palmer (now deceased), daughter Nicole and son Keith, brother Wayne, and sister Sandra.
Trademark Sayings: “Come”
Special Object(s): Nothing really
What we think of him: David is our favorite character of all time! His bravery, kindness, gentleness, assertiveness, and friendship to Jack make him the best male character on the show (except Jack of course). His death made us both very sad and we still miss him!!!!!

Name: Chloe O’Brian
Played by: Mary Lynn Rajskub
Status: Alive
Season Count: 3-

Occupation: C.T.U. analyst
Family Relations: ex-husband Morris O’Brian, ex-boyfriend Spenser Wolfe
Trademark Sayings: “Fine!”
Special Object(s): Um, computers, duh!
What we think of her: Chloe is one of our favorite characters as well. Her sarcastic remarks and quirkiness help keep the show from being too serious and her relationships with people are always fun to watch. Chloe has also evolved so much from season 3 that it’s fun to think of how she’ll be next.

Name: Tony Almeida
Played by: Carlos Bernard
Status: Deceased
Season Count: 1-5

Occupation: C.T.U. analyst, then C.T.U. director, and C.T.U. agent
Family Relations: Michelle Dessler (married, divorced, reconciled), ex-girlfriend Nina Myers, ex-girlfriend Jen
Trademark Sayings: “Yeah,”
Special Object(s): Cubs mug; it appears in every season with him and it seems to be what helped him through his depression period when Michelle left him.
What we think of him: Tony is definitely NOT at the top of our favorites list. Even though he is Jack’s best friend, he has done some very questionable things including holding Jack to gunpoint in Season 2. But when Tony is with Michelle, he is much better because she is a good influence on him so we try not to be too hard on Tony (most of the time.)

What Ame thinks of her: Michelle is a great character who does so much for Jack and C.T.U. throughout the course of the show that she could never be replaced.  She is the only person that keeps Tony together and I highly respect her bravery and intelligence.  However, the way she treats Tony when she comes back in season 4 is a little too harsh at first and she was a Drama Queen a few times in season 2.  But overall, a great and original character and it was sad to see her go.  But, she’s not one of my top 5, so I got over her death much more quickly than Sarah.

Name: Kimberly Bauer
Played by: Elisha Cuthbert
Status: Alive
Season Count: 1-3, 5

Occupation: Daughter of Jack Bauer and C.T.U. analyst in season 3
Family Relations: Father Jack Bauer, mother Teri Bauer (now deceased), uncle Graem (now deceased), Aunt Marilyn, cousin Josh, Aunt Carol, and grandfather Phillip.
Trademark Sayings: None
Special Objects: None besides the cougar and bad boyfriends
What we think of her: Although Kimberly is constituted as a main character, we view her merely as a time filler. Her lack of common sense, constant trouble making, stupid storylines, horrible boyfriends/husband (yes, we are NOT Chase fans either), and bipolar relationship to Jack all make her an annoying bother to watch. Despite these personality disorders, she is an emotional support to Jack (most of the time) and he probably wouldn’t be able to live if she died.
