I like the "anthology" idea, like Fargo. New characters and settings each season. No more of the same ol' CTU/political junk. And it would attract bigger name stars than Puffy Jimmy.

Puffy Jimmy was quite disappointing.

As long as they bring back Tony each season, I’m good with it. He is the undead ghost of CTU Past, plus kinda cute. They can change the rest of the cast. Also, maybe skip seasons for the ubiquitous gay romance.

What they really should do is mimic the old NBC Mystery Movie concept, where they rotated between McCloud, Columbo, and McMillan and Wife and something else. This gave each show a month to produce an episode, which allowed for greater quality.

They could rotate between different CTU locations, each with its own cast. Each weekly story would center on a different CTU (and cast), and each would face some terrorist crisis which would play out over the course of a week (within the 2-hour nightly movie time limit).

Prominent guest stars would be featured each week, either as the target or the baddie. Each CTU might have a different story focus. For example, the Washington DC CTU could focus on threats to the President, Congress, and SCOTUS. A New York City CTU could focus on financial cybercrimes, and Boston-NYC-Chicago threats. An LA CTU would focus on AsiaPac terror. A heartland CTU could focus on homeland and/or international intrigue stories. Or maybe make one a British CTU to focus on European stories.
