I love 24, and I'm looking for some more action shows to watch.

I'm really liking Human Target. You can watch the first four episodes to get caught up here. http://www.fox.com/humantarget/

The Unit was on for four seasons, and it was a good action show. Black Ops type unit. Stars Robert Patrick (Terminator 2), Dennis Haysbert (24).

Flashpoint airs on CBS and is on hiatus or between seasons right now. It's a tactical response unit type show. Swat team stuff.

Now and Again (aired for 1 season) starring Dennis Haysbert (24, The Unit), Eric Close (Without a Trace) and John Goodman. Very cool show that balanced comedy/drama/action fairly well.

Then you're too young to have ever seen Mission:Impossible without Tom Cruise in it.

that's mighty presumptious of you. a tad bit arrogant as well.

The Shield has some pretty good action in it. Very short seasons though, max of 14 episodes I think, then it goes down to 10 in later seasons.

Burn Notice is a great action packed show.

Walker, Texas Ranger.

I will second that recommendation. If you have never seen it, prepare for one great series, full of action and dramatic tension.

Human Target has pretty good action....
Sons Of Anarchy...good story with action mixed in..

I can't believe I forgot Burn Notice.

I would also recommend The Shield and Burn Notice.

If you like 24, you should give La Femme Nikita a try. It is a remake of the French movie that aired on USA. It was done by most of the people that moved on to 24 after Nikita was cancelled (it ran for 5 years). It had a lower budget on USA, especially in years 3-5, and so it relies on close combat and stronger storylines rather than FX.

Southland has some action in it. So does Leverage.
