IPv4-addresses are made up of four numbers ranging from 0 to 255. They are nowhere close to 292.x.y.z. Really. After 5 series, somebody ought to have mentioned this to those writing the 24 scripts. How hard can it be to have a IT-knowledgable person review the stuff they are putting in there?
I think that a good show gets the details correct. It somehow lessens the tension when I have to get a good laugh at things like that. I’m quite sure other things are wrong too, though perhaps it’s easier to get a weapons specialist helping out than finding somebody with a decent degree in computerscience.
That said, I thought season 5 started out quite well. A small drawback is that fact that people again seem to think Jack would kill Palmer. Duh.
