You all remember 24, don’t you? The show I used to blog about? As I prepared to relay the latest news regarding my favorite show, it dawned on me that the wait for season seven has become a drama in it of itself.
Back in October, Fox released an internet preview for the new season with an announcement from Keifer Sutherland promising “the biggest season yet.” That season was scraped due to the writers strike. Now Fox is announcing that the next season will premier in January and will be accompanied with a two hour movie in November.
“Producers also dished on the two-hour, stand-alone '24' prequel movie which aims to bridge the gap between the end of season six and the start of season seven. Shot partly on location in South Africa, the movie will take place on Inauguration Day for the next U.S. president as Jack Bauer finds himself in the middle of an international crisis.”
The rest of the article mentions that the writers used the extra time to fine tune the story line and for the first time, mapped out the entire story before shooting took place. Unfortunately they decided to go ahead with the storyline of Jack Bauer being court marshaled for crimes he allegedly committed while fighting terrorists. And Keifer Sutherland is once again promising “the best season of 24.”
After the tortuous wait fans have endured, I hope for Sutherland’s sake that he delivers and this is the best season ever. Otherwise, there would be justified reasons to have him court marshaled.
