Even when running CTU, he had someone to answer to (District, Division, etc.) The very first episode of the series, Jack tranquilized George Mason. The first episode of the second season, he shoots a witness and decapitates him, when merely asked to question him.
More season 1 thoughts:
* Teri's amnesia was just as bad as I remembered it.
* The Palmer's son subplot got a lot better than it was in the beginning. Especially since it was the start of Sherri's turn from supportive wife to manipulative b***h.
* In fact, Palmer's son storyline carried the show since the rescue. Jack has not really been interesting since then.
