Make the lead black and lesbian as well as female, and you’ve got the current formula for a winner. /S

If this one doesn’t succeed, perhaps they will come back with Jack Bauer as a transgender.

Make the lead a black tranny, and you’ll be “hip.”

i tried to watch the black dude in 24, couldn’t stand him. Im sure the Fox idiots will make the lead a dyke just like Gotham.

Disabled in a super charged armed wheelchair for the win.

Hillary Clinton solving international plots at subversion of US elections with her tidy bowl clean server.

She isn’t above the law. She is the whole of the law.

New on FOX

I just hope Rush doesn't try to kiss him.

Maybe it’s meant to be a sacrificial lamb. Elaborate, expensive Virtue Signaling. If it works, fine, but they don’t expect it to work. Producing such a series will be a PC feather in FOX’s cap. They can then say ‘We tried, we really tried, but the public wouldn’t support our progressive ideas!”

I am triggering! I want to see Moana Bauer, the Pacific Islander Female who saves the country from terror! Why didn’t they even CONSIDER the Island Americans??? I promise Guam will not tip over even after they blow up a ton of Semtox!

Plus this will give Tony a wonderful selection of potential girlfriends.

Hollywood is just full of new ideas /S

The new 24 with the black dude was barely watchable...

NCIS seems to have figuired out how to expand that format by building their shows on different characters with interesting story lines...

They’ve already done black. Now they want female. Gay is next in line. I guess it’ll come in useful redecorating CTU after it’s blown up every season.

Needless to say, I think “24” without Jack Bauer is utterly pointless.

I watched 24 because Jack Bauer was a good, interesting character and Keifer Sutherland did a great job playing the role.

It wasn’t because he was white or male, it was because he was a complex character, well-acted by a good actor.

It also wasn’t because of the gimmicky “ticking clock” format either.

Make a good show about interesting characters with a good plot and people will watch it.

Make an SJW commercial that checks every box for diversity, and no amount of gimmicks or spin will get people to tune in.

Another strong independent woman who can do a spin kick and knock out guys taller, stronger and who have 100 pounds on her. Yeah I’ve seen that already. My give a care meter is hovering at zero.

24 was great. The remake, the one with BlackJack, stunk. I mean, it was dreadful. Gripping lines such as “don’t make me go Jihad on yo’ azz...”

The proposed one sounds even worse.
