The political left and the political right are going to meet on Fox's "24" this coming season.

Actress-comedian Janeane Garofalo, an outspoken liberal, is set to co-star on the conservative-leaning real-time drama, whose co-creator/executive producer Joel Surnow jokingly describes himself as a "right-wing nut job."

[Recovering_Democrat]

Ugh. I may really have to stay away from 24 this season. Damn shame.

[gridlock]

I was getting tired of them, anyway...

[Zuben Elgenubi]

I believe 24 will also have a real-life lesbian acting the role of president. What’s a pod of sharks called? Because 24 must be jumping a series of sharks like old Big Foot jumped busses.

There goes the neighborhood.

24 jumped the shark when Jack bit through the neck of the terrorist. I stopped watching a few episodes later.

It may not only be jumping the shark in a thousand ways, but by hiring Jeanne they just gave the finger to much of their viewer-ship. My husband and I had intended to watch, but now, no way. We’re out. Very poor move and decision making regarding the show.

[GOP Poet]

Jeanne = Janeane Garofalo.

[FlashBack]

BINGO!!!!

[\/\/ayne]

Just think of all the things Jack has had to do to America’s enemies, his own bosses, other government workers and even his co-workers and friends in order to save America.

And never, EVER had his cell phone drop a signal or run out of juice!

[ishabibble]

Right behind you!

Another example of TV trying to pave the way for Hillary Clinton?

And they could enter any secure space, with their cell phone...and it was even allowed to be on!!

This is the TV version of Jonestown and Garofalo is the Kool Aid.

"Very poor move and decision making regarding the show."

So am I. That woman nauseates me.

"Another example of TV trying to pave the way for Hillary Clinton?

LOL! It would also require the actress to play a marxist cow as well.

[NonValueAdded]

Hmmm do they figure the conservative audience is maxed out and there is only one way to increase viewership? Talk about abandoning your base. Unless Jack Bauer kicks the snot out of his partner once in a while; that could be entertaining.

[MizSterious]

I’d heard it was going to take a more liberal turn. Oh well, one less show to have to watch.

[Rummyfan]

The only positive I can take from this is that Jack’s partners never last too long......
