Ok folks here's the new thread for the new season.

.................................................................................Set in Washington, DC, "Day 7" opens four years after Season Six with CTU dismantled and JACK BAUER on trial. Bauer's day takes an unexpected turn when former colleague TONY ALMEIDA returns. Meanwhile, newly elected President ALLISON TAYLOR leads the country alongside White House Chief of Staff ETHAN KANIN and First Gentleman HENRY TAYLOR.

A national security crisis prompts an investigation by a team of FBI agents including JANIS GOLD, RENEE WALKER, LARRY MOSS and SEAN HILLINGER. Although CTU is no longer, CHLOE O'BRIAN and BILL BUCHANAN are back for another momentous day of shocking events.

Freckles is channeling her inner Bauer. Freckles is looking kinda "not guilty"..

Cutting off the oxygen tank? Haven't seen something like that since Mark Greene discharged the paddles in midair while a serial killer died on the gurney in the 2001 season finale of "ER"...

Re #1453:

Nice...eyes!!!

[Christian4Bush]

Ha Ha, just happen to have a 5 iron up against the wall.

I think he shanked it a little bit...

[Christian4Bush]

Talking about 24’s presidents — have we actually seen one in the White House before? They always seem to have been on the left coast — or a retreat or somewhere other than the WH.

The only one I remember being IN the White House is Wayne Palmer...he never left the WH grounds, even though after the nuke went off, they moved him down to the bunker...that worked out well...

As for the other "days", never saw the first season president, Season 2, D.Palmer was in Colorado and Los Angeles, Season 3, Palmer in California, Season 4, J. Keeler on AF1 and Logan perhaps at WH...Season 5, Logan at ranch in California. So, yeah, the only one at the WH - convincingly at the WH - was Wayne Palmer...and he effectively died at the White House.

[Christian4Bush]

I always thought they’d have better lighting in the White House... can we not afford the electric bill in the White House any more?

It's those damn "power saver" bulbs, probably...remember they were talking about making this season "carbon neutral"?

At work today, a tube bulb broke, and pretty loudly, at that...I told the lady over whose desk it broke, be thankful it wasn't one of those "power saver" bulbs, or else we'd have to evac and call in HazMat...

[Christian4Bush]

when he died originally he had a silent clock..that meant he probably wasnt dead.

Actually, Tony didn't have a silent clock...Edgar did have one, in the episode prior to Tony's "death". I don't think they have had a silent clock in two consecutive episodes.

[Christian4Bush]

Is perimeter a drink word?

You betcha!!!

But anyone other than Jack saying "DAMMIT!!!" should probably only be half a shot...

[Christian4Bush]

watch it Tony... Jack has a bic in his pocket

AND he's happy to see him!

[Timeout]

I’m pretty sure there was a silent clock at the end of the pre-season movie in November...for Jack’s missionary buddy.

I’m confused about this side story about FH and his son’s suicide. Doesn’t seem like that big a deal, but it’s the one link to this story that was included at the end of last season. I vaguely remember something about a shaky recovering druggie stockbroker and the president’s son (getting dressed for the inauguration)...oh wait!...wasn’t John Voight the bad guy?!

Can someone remind me? Did stockbroker guy get killed? And wasn’t the prez’s son dirty?

[mware]

I think you are right about the first plane in the que being the one to be sacrificed.

I wondered why they kept going to the woman and child on the plane during Sunday nights episodes.

Ironic that he may have sealed the fate with his actions.

The video footage is already up too, so you can go there and watch the 2 hours you missed. :)

[DollyCali]

yes fingernails in tact

Margaritas gone!!!

[PennsylvaniaMom]

Agent Sean is too twitchy and scary (look how he freaked out Janis in the server room). You are right about the woman and child too...why keep showing them? (I know, I know...even in a plane crash, women and childrent hit worse). I think Mrs. Agent Sean won’t be having an easy landing...

Yup, Voight's the bad guy. He had the druggie stock broker killed.
First son wasn't dirty, he was just a friend of the druggie.

They are setting up Garofolo to be Chloe’s foil. Hopefully she will be shown to be an idiot soon.

She already has “Schmuck” stenciled on her forehead.

Of course in Garofalo's case this is called typecasting.

May I please be on the ping list for this thread? Thanks!

[MetsJetsandNets]

This question is for everyone watching...what is the connection between the corrupt African regime and the president’s administration? I’ll admit I was watching last night with only one eye on the screen, but I’m failing to understand what’s in it for anyone in the administration being in cahoots with the African country. Can anyone help me out?

[eastforker]

Here is a hint, it’s called a ladies best friend.
