First Season of 24: on sale: should I buy it at half price?

[gategrrl]

Target is having a sale on the first season of 24. It's on sale for ~$20.00, or half its usual price.  I've been hearing a lot about 24 lately...should I, or shouldn't I?  It would be nice to watch a show I've never seen before, without commercials, without waiting from week to week and through network delays and repeats...

Any advice anyone? I could go back there first thing tomorrow and get it!

The OTHER thing is, I'm pretty much unspoiled for this show: meaning, I only have the foggiest idea of who the characters are, and the specific situations they get into.

I have heard about some gross things Jack, the main character, does in later seasons, though.

Gross? Hmm. Maybe I missed that season? Or maybe I'm used to it. He's not a nice guy, Jack. He just does his job very well. He's a hero but also an anti-hero in many ways. It's a show I never thought I'd like. I mean, if money is very tight and you're not sure, it's best to be on the safe side. But it's a suspense-drama show. And if you aren't spoiled, that's even better. I'm dying to see s1,but I'm spoiled because I already know what happens to the characters. But whenever you do chose to watch it, it would likely suit you better having no idea what happens.
