On Sunday,Nov. 23,2008,Jack is back with a 2 hour event that will air on the FOX Network.
Perhaps the extended break for the series will give it a "breath of fresh air",so to say.

The seventh season for the series is still on tap for Jan. 2009.
Actual date and time for the series premiere is yet TBD.
More info and a trailer for the upcoming event at the following link.

Count me in! This is my favorite show and I really missed not seeing it last season. It was getting long in the tooth but hopefully the writers have come up with something good.

Heck no Michael, this is tops in our house too. My wife and I absolutely love 24. It is the ONLY and I mean ONLY show that we watch live. Everything else is watched after being recorded. Been that way since hour one of season one.

While Jack is one bad dude, how many really bad days can this guy handle?

Also, if I were Jack, I'd want some immunity & do whatever I want card (like the guys in Armaggedon got) before I did a darn thing.

If I'm asked to save the good ole USA !pride and the world for the umpteeth time, I want to be able to do whatever I want when I want.

If I want to park in a fire lane, fine.
If I feel like shooting the fool that has 50 items in the 10 items or less express line AND is writing a check at the store, fine.
If I want to tear the tag off all the matresses in a store, fine.
etc.

Jack gets no respect. I guess you have to be 007 before you get those perks.

The first 11 episodes (maybe even 12 or 13) where shot last year before the writers strike.... SO the story line was set in motion in July 2007 and starte shooting episodes in August of 2007... should be interesting to see if we notice anything between the shows shot this year and last... also, i wonder if nov eps are the first two of the new season, or just a 2 hour story arc to connect the last aired season with the upcoming one...

Redemption is a 2 hour story arc to catch us up to season 7.

I was thinking that they scrapped the shows that were produced and decided to go in a different direction with the storyline. Maybe I am just dreaming that!

Ah, no chance of that... Would you waste 50% of a seasons episodes? I wouldn't.... They where talking before last season that they had done some creative revamping to freshin up the show....

AdAge, TVWeek: "24" Movie Ads Commanding Top Dollar

'24' Prequel Spots Scoring High Prices

Fox's "24" has scored this season's highest price for a 30-second spot for a two-hour special, Advertising Age reports. The drama's November "prequel" to its regular season start in January is fetching paydays of about $500,000 to $600,000 per 30-second spot. This is considered quite the gamble, AdAge says, because the show hasn't been on the air since the spring of 2007 and that season was not considered among its best by critics and fans.

can't wait! i wish it would air sooner, though!

there is no where to go but up for this upcoming season; last season was at ROCK BOTTOM; especially after the BEST SEASON EVER, Season 5

They have had plenty of time to get it right. I do love this show! I really like Jack as a character and the format of the show. I'm not a big Kiefer Sutherland fan though. That might sound strange but his character just works with this show. I don't think that anyone else would have been right for this part. I know people that aren't a Keifer fan and thus won't watch the show.

I love the show, and am cautiously optimistic about Redemption. Cautious, because I was let down by the most recent season. The writing seemed very sloppy, and the storyline just didn't do it for me like previous seasons have.

I, too, am looking forward to 24. I only wish D* would add my market to it's "locals in HD" list.....must be nice to see that show in HD.

I got my HDTV last December and was really wanting to watch 24 on it. I think that just about everyone thinks that the last years shows were sub par and maybe since the strike it will be better. I missed season one so I can just compare the most recent season to the others and it was not as good.
