Coming soon to a law school near you...

The Law of "24"! (Hat tip: Joe Mama.)

I think this brilliantly conceived Georgetown Law class could start a trend at universities nationwide. Study of "24" could become a major, or at least a minor, all unto itself. Imagine the possibilities: The Theology of "24." (Is Jack Bauer a god, or merely a demigod?) The Philosophy of "24." (Who are we? Why are we here? How did Jack Bauer get to be such a freakin' badass?) The Biology of "24." (How does Jack Bauer's body sustain itself despite being constantly tortured and mutilated?) The Physics of "24." (Why don't the laws of physics apply to Jack Bauer?) Etc., etc.

There's already a "Philosophy of [fill in the TV show]" series published by Open Press. And I'm sure someone will come up with "The Physics of '24'" soon enough.

Prof. Dutile used to reference 'Cops' often in class, usually for examples of things that were unconstitutional (but done anyway).
