[edit] Mountain Lion

While we have no cite for it, I must agree. Fans tend to hate that mountain lion. - Xtreme680 05:44, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

I hate to be a b*tch about this, I really REALLY do, because I effin' loathed this storyline about the cougar, but this little blurb is just like the Tony/Silent clock debate that we had an issue with previously. I would really like to find a reference somewhere (a fan poll, a question on TVGuide.com, anything!) that can document the dislike for the subplot. -Kapoli 05:54, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
I wish I knew where I read it, but I remember reading somewhere that Kiefer himself hated the cougar plot. --Proudhug 16:02, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Well maybe we can just do something about the wording?

This episode began the famous "mountain lion" subplot, which is considered one of the least favorite subplots of the fans.

Here are the problems I see... "famous" (how famous? says who?); "one of the least favorite" (I didn't like it, but it's not one of my least favorite... who's least favorite is it?); and "of the fans" (how many fans? which fans?)

If someone can think of a way to reword it without the semi-weasel words, then let's keep it, for sure. But I don't see how we can leave this the way it is when we took out that line from the Season 4 finale - "This is considered one of the best TV endings of all time by many 24 fans." I mean, don't get me wrong, I don't want that sentence on that page either. I'm just trying to make things consistent. -Kapoli 16:23, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Oh I know. I'll look into it. I do despise uncited things. - Xtreme680 23:28, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
