Fox is looking to restart the clock on 24.
The network is looking to bring back the Emmy-winning real-time thriller as a limited series event, Deadline reports.
No deals are in place in front of or behind the screen, but Kiefer Sutherland is said to be in early talks to reprise his role as Jack Bauer. Former 24 boss Howard Gordon, meanwhile, would likely oversee the revival, per Deadline.
News of a possible 24 rebirth comes just hours after Fox pulled the plug on Sutherland’s Touch. Thoughts? Does this sound like the best or worst idea ever?
Its new title: “10”.
Costarring: Bo Derek.
Unless he has to do battle with extraterrestrials it can only go downhill from where it was.
Do it!!
Are they going to bring the Garafalo freak back? She single-handedly brought the series down the first time why not do it again?
And the season after that, Jack Bauer has to take on Lucifer himself, after the Arc-angel Michael shows himself to be a double-agent for the dark side.
Spoiler alert! (roll over to see): =Bauer wins by strangling Lucifer with his own tail.
Woo Hoo!!! Just when I was thinking about re-watching them all from the beginning on Netflix!
24, the series, is done.
(And I really liked the series).
Oh, he'll pull the trigger!
And the season after that, Jack Bauer has to take on Lucifer himself, after the Arc-angel Michael shows himself to be a double-agent for the dark side.Hopefully, he'll rescue Renee and bring her back to life.
Ticked me off when the killed her. 
Bah. Now you’ll get the series with Obama in a star role, saving Al Quaida from the Americans.
screw kiefer, screw fox.
Limited series?
12?
I stopped watching it when they killed Renee. The Lifetime channel writers already had made season 8 the worst season by far. 24 was well known for killing characters left and right, but there was always a real reason for doing it. Killing Renee was just a tool used to get Jack mad. I never watched another episode after that.
We loved that seriers. Jack is the anti-obama. I bet Jack could get all the facts on Benghazi out of everyone in the administration in 60 minutes.
That would have been a series to watch.
Who had the 24 live thread? I miss the thread almost as much as the show
24 back on track ping
Killing Renee was just a tool used to get Jack mad.In comics, that's referred to as "Women in Refrigerators Syndrome".
Women in Refrigerators Syndrome
Women in Refrigerators Syndrome describes the use of the death or injury of a female comic book character as a plot device in a story starring a male comic book character. It is also used to note the depowerment or elimination of a female comic book character within a comic book universe.Cases of 'Women in Refrigerators Syndrome' deal with a gruesome injury or murder of a female character at the hands of a supervillain, usually as a motivating personal tragedy for a male superhero to whom the victim is connected. The death or injury of the female character then helps cement the hatred between the hero and the villain responsible.
