24 - Update #1

This isnt much but its better than nothing.

Fox Releases Season 4 Details

From Dark Horizons:

Fox has released details of the first episode of the fourth season of "24" over at Mediasharx and finally some details about this 'slimmed down' new season have been revealed. Coming off a solid but somewhat disappointing third year, Fox has revived the show a bit by leaving only Kiefer Sutherland as the main regular returning this time around whilst much of the cast has been restaffed.

Much like several shows this upcoming season such as "Alias", "24" will air all 24 episodes in a row, with no breaks and no repeats between new episodes. The first two premiere with back-to-back episodes on January 3rd at 8pm.

Season Four begins 18 months after the third season and at 7am. CTU is now headed by Erin Driscoll (Alberta Watson), a steely government agent who made firing Jack one of her first priorities upon taking over.

After the explosion of a commuter train, Jack, who is now working for Secretary of Defense James Heller (William Devane) and also is romantically involved with his married daughter, Audrey (Kim Raver), suddenly finds himself heading back to CTU for a meeting with Driscoll on Heller's behalf.

Also starring are Nestor Serrano (The Day After Tomorrow) as Middle Eastern businessman Navi Araz, Oscar-nominated actress Shohreh Aghdashloo ("House of Sand & Fog") as his wife, Dina, and Jonathan Ahdout ("House of Sand & Fog")) as their son, Behrooz.


I really like how they will air all 24 episodes with out interuption. That will help with the shows ratings alot.

Yeah, I like how 24 and Alias are starting January too. Alias got especially annoying last season, nobody ever knew when it was actually on.

Coming off a solid but somewhat disappointing third year, Fox has revived the show a bit by leaving only Kiefer Sutherland as the main regular returning this time around whilst much of the cast has been restaffed.

First time I've heard that. [img]graemlins/ohwell.gif[/img] Thanks for the news.

I am glad they cut the cast down a lot. Now it can have fresh look and people who never saw the other 3 want have to watch them to understnad what is going on. I believe Jack will either retire or get killed on this season.

I would hate for that to happen but the hsow must go on!
