Season 8 Premiers on SUNDAY NIGHT, January 17 with a TWO hour opening episode at 9 Eastern.
On Monday night we are treated to ANOTHER two hour episode again starting at 9 Eastern.
Hard to tell which way this episode will swing...back to the tough as nails UN-PC style or will we get more handwringing and Islamo-Gaia Love like last year?
Here's a little feature from the 24 website
http://www.fox.com/fod/play.php?sh=twentyfour&ep=1256696811731
This season starts off in NYC with Jack trying to establish a 'normal' life with his daughter. But...some stuff goes down at the UN and "that's when the day starts to go wrong" as Jack puts it...
For those who might need comic relief on a Saturday morning...or before the next episode...here are some JB jokes I found this morning...some of them I’ve not seen...
If you wake up in the morning, it’s because Jack Bauer spared your life.
Upon hearing that he was played by Kiefer Sutherland, Jack Bauer killed Sutherland. Jack Bauer gets played by no man.
If Jack Bauer was in a room with Hitler, Stalin, and Nina Meyers, and he had a gun with 2 bullets, he’d shoot Nina twice.
Jack Bauer killed 93 people in just 4 days time. Wait, that is a real fact.
Jack Bauer was never addicted to heroin. Heroin was addicted to Jack Bauer.
Jack Bauer’s favorite color is severe terror alert red. His second favorite color is violet, but just because it sounds like violent.
1.6 billion Chinese are angry with Jack Bauer. Sounds like a fair fight.
If Jack says “I just want to talk to him/her” and that him/her is you… well amigo, you’re ****ed.
Jack Bauer once forgot where he put his keys. He then spent the next half-hour torturing himself until he gave up the location of the keys.
Jack Bauer doesn’t miss. If he didn’t hit you it’s because he was shooting at another terrorist twelve miles away.
When you open a can of whoop-ass, Jack Bauer jumps out.
Jack Bauer does not sleep. The only rest he needs is what he gets when he’s knocked out or temporarily killed.
If you are still conscious, it is because Jack Bauer doesn’t want to carry you.
Jack Bauer has no problem following orders, unless you tell him to do something he doesn’t want to.
As a child, Jack Bauer’s first words were “There’s no time!”
While being ‘put under’ in the hospital, Jack Bauer can count backwards from 100 every time. This annoys the doctors.
Jack Bauer can watch all 7 seasons of 24 in 24 hours.
Jack Bauer literally died for his country, and lived to tell about it.
Jack Bauer’s family threw him a surprise birthday party when he was a child. Once.
Killing Jack Bauer doesn’t make him dead. It just makes him angry.
Everytime Jack Bauer yells “NOW!” at the end of a sentence, a terrorist dies.
If Jack’s starring at someone and his eye twitches, assume that person has less than 15 minutes to live.
When life gave Jack Bauer lemons, he used them to kill terrorists. Jack Bauer hates lemonade.
Guns dont kill people, Jack Bauer kills people.
David Spade always says ‘yes’ to Jack Bauer when he wants to redeem his credit card miles.
Don’t ask what Jack Bauer would he would do for a Klondike bar...

Just rewatched Episode 1, where Jack axed the terrorist, then picked up his weapon...and for some strange reason, this old movie line came to mind:
“Now...I have...a machine gun....ho...ho...ho...”
/Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman), “Die Hard” (1987)
Easy. They just told CTU they had a bomb in the car.
(I'm just getting caught up from a couple of trips).
Sorry, just getting caught up from some trips.
Jack don't need no stinkin' bullets. He can kill you with a toothpick or a Hostess Ho-Ho.
Ax to the Chest(jack) and chopped off hand (freckles) match made in Heaven...bump
I didn’t realize that was Alan rickman in that part! Now I’m going to have to watch it again! :)
Here’s YOUR 24 PING!!!

Hmmm...Freddie seems to really like it, too!
Thanks GRRRRR!
I love Alan Rickman!!!!
All of his characters are deliciously evil. Snape is my hero.
I had to watch 24 on Hulu. It’s not the same without the FReepers.
Avada Kedavara!!!!!!!
I’m on Mountain Time now so I have to IGNORE all the posts, then scroll thru as the clock runs and make witty comments that then wind up being posted at the end of the thread with NO link to the REAL time thread...Arrrggghhhhh!!
I am so sorry. You’re amazing for running the thread!
