Eighth season confirmed

December 1st, 2009

That’s at least what Kiefer Sutherland says, when asked about the future of the hit action series. Fox has no official announcement yet, but you can expect some official news soon, now that the lead actor has broken the ice.

Kiefer has been successful in his portrayal of the grim and dedicated agent Jack Bauer and was awarded with the Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series award in 2006 at the Emmys.

In tandem with the news that 24 producer and director John Cassar will be leaving the show after he and FOX executives did not agree on the terms of a new contract for the upcoming season, we do not know how to take the news. We can only hope that 24 will continue to deliver fast paced intelligent drama and action in the coming 8th season.

Time for 24 Trivia !

October 29th, 2009

Yep, we just can’t wait for the next Season and so we don’t go nuts, how’s about some trivia from the show. In Season 4 Episode 5, Debbie’s cellphone rang and came up with a valid number which was actually deliberate and set-up as a prop phone but was turned into a fan phone when they got 80,000 calls in the first week of the phone being shown. Of all the cast, only Agent Aaron Pierce is the only character to have appeared on all 6 seasons of the show from all the cast that have taken part in the series. All of the actors are also not told as to what will happen in the next episode till it begins its shoot so as people do not get what’s going to happen next.
These people are truly professional and have unwavering support for the show, much so that each and every cast member is required(per their contracts) to get a haircut every 5 days. The series is also shot as much as possible at eye level to present true realism of having the viewer in the scene(why not do it in 3D……hmm).

24 is officially taking time off. Fox confirmed what everyone was thinking. And won’t be back for almost one year. Time is of the essence and Jack bauer knows that more anybody does. The seventh season of the show was slotted to begin last January of this year and continually run without a break, unfortunately in November 2007, the writers strike complicated things and forced Fox to further postpone the season’s premiere at an unspecified time. Ultimately, Fox decided not to continue the season and instead re schedule it for January 2009. The crew has shot around 8 episodes for the season. But it was a move by Fox to ensure the famous series runs uninterrupted hopefully by next year.

Season 7 was aired this year January 13, 2008, but it was postponed until next year January. That is why some of the loyal fans are really looking forward for the coming year. Of course, we will all be looking forward for Cherry Bones / Powers Boothe showdown in this season, right? Anyways, Jon Voight and Robert Carlyle will also be there, and obviously Kiefer Sutherland, the one who is playing as Jack Bauer. During the last season, the script and the story are not really satisfying, that is why the hardworking producers and imaginative script writers polished this seasonâ?™s scripts to become more appealing. That is why Season 7 was postponed. Unfortunately, so is Season 8, because season 7 will use the whole year after this onwards. Season 8 will probably be aired on 2010 hopefully. As an additional information to you guys, Fox.com gives the profiles of the characters a few weeks before a season begins. You might want to check it out.
