Four immensely enjoyable hours. Alas, I can't speak to what happens during the remaining 20.
The first four hours are good. Very good. Certainly, 24 fans will enjoy them.

While the "final" season started off really slow, it got way better after episode 4 and the show ended brilliantly. This season is also underrated too.

SEASON 8
For some, it has become a mostly predictable, tired pattern that causes eyes to roll. But for those who can still check their critical capacities at the door--even after seven seasons--24 continues to make for pulse-pounding, nail-biting comfort food.
Stick around past the disappointing opening night, and on Monday, you’ll get a terrific third-hour cliffhanger and, in hour four, the arrival of a seriously damaged Renee Walker (Annie Wersching), who contributes to a shocking climax that, in fabled 24 tradition, leaves you wanting more.
24" works best when the show doesn't take itself too seriously -- incorporating just enough sobering geopolitics to establish a credible foundation before indulging in wild flights of counterespionage fancy. Moreover, having one villain drive the plot for a handful of episodes before being supplanted by another has added greater satisfaction and closure to the program's high-wire storytelling.
This “24? seems more realistic than usual, and it offers many exciting moments. Yet there are many familiar distractions that underscore how “24? has aged. All in all, the new season is a mixed bag.
By the third episode, though, we've gone off the rails with another low-level blackmailer somehow getting over on an employee at the supposedly powerful and secretive CTU, and with Jack getting caught up in a plot-delaying detour that's even dumber than the survivalist who held Kim hostage for a few episodes in season two.
I actually liked this season the best, even with the uninteresting characters. I thought it had a darker context and something other than nukes and bioweapons. The bigger picture was a lot better placed, and Jack is driven by vengeance instead of political crap. It's still a russians and arabs hate america thing but, stereotypically, they do.

SEASON 8
Though I was glad to see Chloe and Renee back, I have to admit - the rest of the cast did little to entertain me. I feel like 24 season eight must have had new writers. The final season paled in comparison to the previous 7. Maybe it was time to call it finished.

SEASON 8
Great season, easily on the top half of the show's best seasons. It began with a slow start with Jack Bauer making his return to CTU in New York, but as it progressed Bauer and company found themselves in the middle of another grave national threat. The cast and writers were fantastic as always.

SEASON 8
Not the best season. I like that they changed the setting to new york and had some new characters. A few people died in this season which was sad. This season was similar to season 4 about nuclear weapons. I found that this show used alot of same formula like invoking the 25th amendment, granting immunity and torturing people so they give information, and there is always a mole.
