No way, Chloe is the best thing in 24. The only character on the show who is a plausible human being for a start. But she is also a pretty unique character to be portrayed on screen - a woman who is nerdy and geeky, who has few social graces, who is a goodie, who is petulant and childish, who is sympathetic and caring, who is extremely competent, who is vulnerable etc. I can't remember watching a female character on TV remotely like that, ever. She is just a really fun anti-hero. It certainly makes a change from the one-dimensional bimbos and bitches normally portrayed on TV[1].Originally Posted by Destroyer of Hope
I also think she is played by a great actress; apparently a stand-up comedienne in real life, which may be why I find her character hilarious. Her tasering the amorous drunken boor in the hotel lobby was possibly the best moment ever in 24.
[1]Although to its credit, 24 has had some other fantastic female roles - esp. Nina and Sherry Palmer.![]()
