"Official" 24 Season 9 Live Another Day thread
The announcement:
http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment...ork-announces/ I'll keep the OP updated with news. And let the countdown clock to May 4 at 8 p.m. officially begin! Season 8 thread: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=219520 "Official" Season 7 thread http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showt...ght=jack+bauer Redemption thread http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=196937 The 2,300 reply "24" thread http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=133876 Official season 6 thread http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showt...ght=jack+bauer Season 6 prequel thread http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showt...ght=jack+bauer 24 to get female president thread http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showt...ght=jack+bauer PASADENA, Calif. — Jack is back, in London, as 24 returns May 5 with a new season that's half the length of previous ones but still takes place over a single day. Fox's 24: Live Another Day is reassembling Kiefer Sutherland's rogue agent, his trusty sidekick Chloe (Mary Lynn Rajskub), his onetime love Audrey Heller (Kim Raver) and her dad (William Devane), who's now president. The ninth season of the show is set four years after the eighth, with Jack still in exile, and this time, he and Chloe are "pitted against each other," Sutherland says. Jack remains on the run, "not quite Osama bin Laden but a fugitive of high order," says producer Manny Coto. "When he resurfaces, we will learn he has a mission, whether it's good or bad we don't know, but they're hunting him." He reconnects with Chloe, who has "turned against the government; (she's) more a radical Snowden-type character," he says. With another hot-button issue — drone strikes — factored in, events will "launch the series into what will be a large tableaux set in London for some crazy events." Executive producer Howard Gordon says the setting in London, where the show will begin filming later this month, was critical in highlighting the exiled state of its hero. "We found a place emotionally to locate Jack, physically to locate jack, and Chloe — who is not his trusty sidekick — someone who is damaged, has joined the free-information movement." Rajskub says she "never thought 24 would come back and I never thought it would come back in this format. I just gotten away from (people) yelling out 'Chloe!' and I'm ready for it to start back up again." Writing 24-episode seasons was "a marathon, it was really, really punishing," Gordon says. The new 12-episode plan is liberating. But the format remains the same: Though the season will still take place in real time over the course of a single day, but fewer episodes will allow writers to sometimes jump forward a couple of hours between them. Producers say, only half-jokingly, that they sometimes need Wikipedia to remember what they've written. When they thought of reviving Devane's character and making him president, "we all thought he was dead," Coto says. (That would be Gregory Itzin's President Logan.) Whither the long-discussed 24 movie? Though a script has been written, it never received a greenlight. "If this ends up rebooting the show or causing a film to be made, so be it," Sutherland says. But "right now we're focused on these episodes." Yvonne Strahovski (from Dexter) is the CIA agent tracking down Jack http://www.pop-topia.com/wp-content/...7864691796.jpg <iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/fo4_r5RlBII?feature=player_embedded" allowfullscreen="" width="640" frameborder="0" height="360"></iframe> |

Jack is back!
24: Live Another Day, Fox's highly anticipated reboot of the beloved show, has officially kicked off production on the 12-episode miniseries in London. And how great is it to see Kiefer Sutherland back in action as Jack Bauer? And it looks like the series will be as intense as ever as Sutherland was seen covered in dirt and surrounded by flipped over cars and fire. Ah, feels just like old times, right? Except this time, there are Union Jack flags surrounding the fugitive, as well as adorable red telephone boxes. More cast news: http://www.deadline.com/tag/24-live-another-day/ And let the countdown clock to May 4 at 8 p.m. officially begin! http://www.eonline.com/eol_images/En...12214_copy.jpg |

Ok I didn't see a season one thread link, and I just finished it on Netflix. So I'll discuss here.
Nina as the mole seemed retconned all to hell. I get that she didn't work directly for Gaines or even Drazen, but the video evidence of her killing Jamie ... in a room where they put Jamie specifically because there were no recording devices, seems pretty bullshit. |
Does it bug anyone else that Chloe never blinks and never stops looking at the camera in that commercial?

I think the 12 episode show is what they should have gone with a long time ago. Let's them cut out all the BS shows & focus more on what people wanted.... Jack kicking ass & shit blowing up. |

Long write-up: http://grantland.com/features/jack-in-the-box/

I'm amazed that I'm as excited about watching this as I am. The show really trailed off badly the last what - 2/3 seasons?
But I'm really digging the new shorter season. Cut out all the bullshit episodes and all you get is what everyone wants..... Jack kicking ass. |
Im curious how they will handle the new format? Is the season still a 24 period? If so, do they stay consistent and each episode will leap ahead every 2 hours? Or do they remain off kilter and go from 6am, to 8am, to 9am, 12pm, etc......?

Thought it was totally kick ass. Good ole 24. Like you never left!

When the first ep started, how many of you were saying to yourselves "wheres the damn clock?"

24 is up against Dancing with the Stars which is usually the #2-3 rated show all week. And Blacklist which is a top 5 show. Initial overnight ratings are in and they are strong even in the 18-32 category. |
Blacklist is on at 10pm. Jack went from 9-10. Fox doesnt have 10pm shows as thats when they do news.
Solid episodes, Enjoyed it. Love 24. This could be a great summer show for a while. |
I had to wait to come in here because we lost power 10 minutes into the second hour. Finally watched it on my PS3. Thought it was good...just like the 24 of old.
|
the Jack Pack is back.
And another 24 staple. LMAO |
