24 Prequel Coming


I'm kind of over Jack Bauer. However, for those who have been waiting nearly a year for his return here is some news. A 2-Hour prequel for 24 will air on FOX this November 23rd. It will involve Jack Bauer solving an international crisis hours before Day 7 (the seventh season) begins.

24's 7th season will begin in January 2009 and the show has been revamped a little. The story will focus on Washington D.C. instead of Los Angeles and there will no longer by a CTU (Counter Terrorism Unit. Also, the show will have a female president. If only television could mirror real life. Then again...they did start the series with a Black president. So we'll see.

24 stars Kiefer Sutherland, Mary Lynn Rajskub, and Janeane Garofalo.
