Not a surprise. The show just doesn't work without Jack Bauer.

Well they did write Black Jack into the storyline, if that helps.

[House Atreides]

It not only “didn’t work”, it sucked big time!

[cmj328]

How about a version which looks at real-world existential threats to America like the consequences of social, immigration, fiscal and trade policy. It could be called “24 Years”.

[BurrOh]

I liked the show. The entire crew should be happy with what they created. My opinion of course. ;) I tuned in each week to see what was happening.

[Personal Responsibility]

24 was a great show for a few seasons but it became repetitive and less believable every year. It needed to end and did so but it needs to stay gone. Its not the lack of Jack Bauer that’s the problem.

[clamper1797]

Changing a well established and liked white character into a black character just for the sake of PC is a sure way to fail.

[KarlInOhio]

At least they didn’t seem to have nearly as much petty backbiting as some of the later seasons of 24. I felt like screaming at the TV - “Someone just nuked Los Angeles and you’re worried about who stole your (@#(*#@ Lean Cuisine from the CTU break room freezer!” Well, not quite that bad, but there was way too much office pettiness during a national emergency.

Not a surprise. The show just doesn't work without Jack Bauer.

It could have, but they went insane. The very first episode pulled the race card, bashed cops as racists, and portrayed "Black Jack's" White Army Ranger buddy as willing to sell out tens of thousands of American lives to terrorists for money.

It is despicable before they even got to the absurd gay "couple" at CTU. I stopped at episode 3.

[montag813]

Not only was 24:Legacy liberal tripe, but many former "24" vets are now ultra-left propagandists. First, there's Kiefer in the absurd Islam preach-fest of "Designated Survivor," but look who was starring in the just-cancelled Trump-bashing play "Building the Wall":

YEP...that's "Alberta Green" and "Chase Edmonds" from Season 3 dead center to portray Trump as Hitler:

The political thriller, according to the Times, follows a history professor named Gloria (Tamara Tunie) who interviews a former security officer named Rick (James Badge Dale). It’s 2019, and President Donald Trump has been removed from office after a terrorist attack in Times Square forces him to declare martial law and place Muslims and Mexicans in containment camps — which eventually turn into killing chambers. Gloria visits Rick in prison, where he explains his hand in the deadly terror.

The play received a series of negative reviews, which Richards said contributed to its early shutdown.

When 24 killed off its best charcter, Bill Buchanan played by actor James Morrison, it started to wane but I still enjoyed it up until they replaced Keifer Sutherland. I’d like to see James Morrison’s character in a spin off.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

No spoilers! We’re retired now and are just into Season 3 of the original series. We binge 3-4 episodes on evenings when we’re both home.

It’s quite entertaining! We place bets on what kind of trouble Kim will get into each episode...through no fault of her own, of course, LOL!

I know we have a long way to go - and that makes me happy!

Bauer is no MacGyver, but he does have his moments.

I’m very sad that beautiful Claudia had to die and that Nina is still roaming free!

[Doogle]

..writing was terrible,plots sucked,acting so so...no surprise.

[Kozy]

Designated Survivor with Jack Bauer isn’t working either.

[Boomer]

It was all about “diversity” and getting more minorities, especially blacks, into TV shows. I’m not against incorporating a diverse bunch of characters of different racial backgrounds and in fact prefer it to all that Gay crap one sees too much of these days.

I though Legacy was okay. Not great but okay. 24 was a hard act to follow. Ironically I’m extremely disappointed in Sutherland’s far left character on his new series Designated Survivor. Very disappointed.

[originalbuckeye]

I hope Designated Survivor follows it into the dustbin of TV history.

[Sybeck1]

Well I guess Heath can show back on Walking Dead now

[FlingWingFlyer]

They’ll probably go with the “gay” guy next time. These clowns are not Jack Bauer.

[Navy Patriot]

Fox screwed the pooch with “24 Legacy” it was PC terrible.

[bray]

You mean 24 BLM wasn’t popular?

[ssaftler]

As bad as “24 BLM” was, Fox did have a good “reboot” series this year. “Prison Break” was actually quite good, once you got past the “resurrection” of Michael Scofield. Seeing Mark Feuerstein as a two-faced rogue agent was intriguing, and I had to admit he did a good job.

And, unlike “24 BLM”, the ending of “Prison Break” was quite satisfying, IMHO.
