Jack is Back? 24 returning to Fox?! - Page 9 - OOTV -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Really making me want to watch the whole show again.

FWIW I think a moment that deserves to be up there with any list of the best 24 moments is Jack killing Ryan Chappelle. I think at that point I realised that literally nothing except the permanent death of Jack Bauer was impossible on the show, and then for a weird moment in the later seasons when Doyle was around I read a bunch of speculation which made me question even that. There's really a lot of modern TV storytelling that is owed to 24.

If Chloe turned out to be a mole, that would be more devastating than Jack dying!

Yvonne Strahovski of Chuck/Dexter fame will be working with CIA on 24 as per TV Guide.

That doesn't bode particularly well, since my brain now automatically associates her with some of the absolute worst television ever produced.

Never watched an episode of this show (well, maybe one or 2 by accident) but if Sarah is involved, I'm in. DAMMIT!!

Having not seen Chuck, I have no real knowledge of Strahovski beyond her appearances in Dexter. Based on that show, she has roughly zero acting ability and is basically just another hot chick. However, I know a lot of people seem to like her based on Chuck, so I'm certainly intrigued to see her on a show that is guaranteed to be better-written than anything Dexter managed in its later years.

Got to take a week off work and didn't have anything planned, now I'm gonna have to smoke myself stupid and watch all 8 series.

Mandy, one minute she's having sex with her bf/partner in crime, then hears CTU choppers coming for them. Tells him one of them has to stay to let the other escape, "and it's gonna be you". Shoots him. It would be worth it too.

Does Kieffer not age btw? And Chloe is pretty milfy these days having seen her in a couple recent things. Gonna be so good. And by that I mean it MUST be a vast improvement on the last series so either way will be a huge win.

i got chills watching that and i lol'd at the ridiculousness of it. that's what's so great about 24.

and season 8 was great! the body armor scene was goat. the ending was goat. just skip over all the parts with the president and starbuck and it's a great season

**** yeah!

can't wait

and as said above, the last season, while inconsistent, had some of Jack's best moments.

lol...that's like the best trailer I've ever seen. It's like a video game ad.

I thought this. SUCH a good trailer, even without much real info about the series contained in it.

It gives us a cool new scenario (London being destroyed for like the 10th time in a movie or TV show in the last 2 years...tax breaks FTW), it gives us Jack randomly shooting and shouting at things, it gives us yet another new look for Chloe (she looks about 10 years younger!)...but it doesn't give us too much.

I was so ****ing excited when I saw that trailer. More than I have been about any trailer in a long time.
