With ’24′ About To End, Is Jack Bauer About To Die?

[who knows what evil?]

A number of sites are stating that the ‘time jump’ will occur tonight...

[ilgipper]

I say no....there needs to be more! 24 is a show that could go on forever. Minus those couple seasons when they ‘wrangled’ with the ethics of torture.

[BitWielder1]

Calling in dead is probably the only way he can get a day off. :-)

[TomGuy]

IIRC, this is the first season in which daughter Kim wasn’t kidnapped.

Of course, she could be kidnapped and the kidnappers didn’t know how to contact Jack in London.

I smell a pre-quel.

[MplsSteve]

I’m a week behind everyone right now.

Tonight, I’m going to watch last week’s episode.

When I left off last week, the US submarine had just torpedoed the Chinese aircraft carrier.

‘time jump’

???

[Red Badger]

Will they kill off a popular franchise money maker?...........................................Uh, no.......................

[wagglebee]

There's no way they kill him, 24 has made Fox way to much money and they aren't about to rule-out a future season.

[Red Badger]

No, no, no..........
He’ll wake up in his own bedroom and find out it was all a dream..........................

[sheana]

I was rooting for the Chinese to finally kill off Audrey. ;)

[who knows what evil?]

I’d bet a few people get whacked tonight...hope springs eternal. :-)

[wagglebee]

I smell a pre-quel.

Nearly impossible. Do you realize how much Kiefer Sutherland has aged?

Season 1

Season 9

[who knows what evil?]

They need to account for thirteen hours in tonight’s episode to keep to the ‘24 hours’ premise. Ergo, time jump.

[tanknetter]

It’s a 12-episode, therefore 12-hour, season of “24”

The “time jump” is speculation that there’ll be a fast forward to take the season through a full day. Question is whether that time jump occurred before the first hour of the season, or is going to happen tonight.

[morphing libertarian]

new cast, in case they kill him off. Don’t think they will, but at some point his knees will give out.

There’s a trend in movies and Tv to do back-story stuff. The entire Star Trek revival is based upon a younger cast going an origin story.

[Hetty_Fauxvert]

I think agent Kate is his daughter. *That* will be the big surprise at the end. Old girlfriend, never told him . . . I mean really, doesn’t Kate act AND look just like Jack?

We need a “like” button here on FR. ;)

I just want Jack Bauer’s magic never-empty magazine. I think that is the typical leftist’s concept of a current high-capacity magazine.
