Here's a couple of items you might want to 'ping' out to the 24 list while we're waiting...

Producers of Fox TV's "24" have begun plotting a film franchise for main character Jack Bauer reports Entertainment Weekly. Actor Kiefer Sutherland is keen - "It can be an amazing series of movies. One of the things I've experienced making this show is that an audience can handle a lot more than we thought when we started -- the tension, the anxiety.... If we could [compress] all the energy we spread over 24 hours of programming and put that into 2, I think we'd knock your socks off". Meanwhile TV Guide reports that Elisha Cuthbert has agreed to reprise her role as Kim Bauer in a multi-episode arc in the 7th-10th episodes of the upcoming fifth season of "24". Cuthbert didn't appear last season, her character off living with her husband Chase (James Badge Dale). The character of Chase will not be returning.

...and...

Day five of "24" has not started well for Jack Bauer, but that's good news for FOX.
The season premiere of "24" grabbed some of the best ratings in the show's history Sunday (Jan. 16), taking advantage of a huge lead-in from an NFL playoff game to hit all-time highs among viewers and adults 18-49.

The two-hour premiere, which started at 8:13 p.m. ET (following the end of the Carolina Panthers-Chicago Bears playoff game), averaged 16.2 million viewers, a bump of more than a million viewers over last year's premiere on the same weekend. (Numbers are based on fast national ratings from Nielsen; final numbers will be out later in the week.)

The first hour of the premiere, which opened with the presumed-dead Jack (Kiefer Sutherland) being forced out of hiding by an assassination, drew 17 million sets of eyes and a 7.3 rating among adults 18-49, the network's target demographic. Both are the best in the show's history. Hour two slipped a little, to 15.5 million viewers and a 6.7 adults 18-49 rating, but still held on to better than 90 percent of its lead-in audience. The show also cut into the lead usually enjoyed by "Desperate Housewives." The ABC show still won the hour with 22.5 million viewers and a 9.5 18-49 rating, but those figures are below its season averages. The second half of "24's" four-hour premiere airs Monday night, and the show settles into its regular 9 p.m. Monday spot next week.

Hi, hope to watch but dont know. I did see a repaet of an earlier episode today on A&E. I do not understand why its called 24 when the timer on the show is only an hour; and whats with the shows being 1, 2, 3 or 4's? Like in this:

"Day 5: 9:00AM-10:00AM/Day 5: 10:00AM-11:00AM" Episode #503/504.
Still on the run, Jack tries to follow up on the leads he has developed; the president's arms treaty becomes jeopardized when innocent lives are endangered and CTU operatives deploy.
