I think we need to light some candles for Curtis. He lasted 6 years, fought off terrorists in his own right, and survived various badass hand-to-hand combats... I guess it's fitting that Jack was the one, the only one, who could have done it, but it's just so sad. Curtis has had Jack's back from Day 1. Moment of Silence....!
Candles definately need to be lit. I miss him already, just like I very much so still miss Tony. Michelle, Tony, Edgar, the only person I really don't miss is David Palmer of the core types they've killed off. Mostly because I think it was getting a little contrived trying to bring him back and work him into the plot. But Curtis is in that first category, I shall remain sad for some time, I was so thrilled to have him back for the season. And now he's gone. :'(
Jack shooting Curtis was a much bigger surprise than setting off the nuke. Sure, the nuke was a big shocker but I never thought Jack would shoot without trying to get somehow out of it before.
I can't put my finger on it but I don't like Wayne much at the moment - it's not that he's unexperienced or makes crappy decisions but he almost seems to be not giving a damn about it. Yes, he says how much concerned he is etc but the empathy doesn't come across the screen.
Jack shooting Curtis was a much bigger shock. The nuke thing they've been kinda leading up to, tottering on the edge of doing for years now. It was just a matter of when they would get there. The Curtis thing, OMG, it's STILL hard to imagine that it really happened! I was sitting there watching, gasping, and my brain was just not comprehending what had really happened.
I'm not feeling comfortable with Wayne either. But, like you, I'm not sure why. Because I've always liked Wayne. But maybe I liked him in a supporting role, not as the go to guy. He definately doesn't have the presence of his brother, nor the gravitas.
