Fox to Revive 24 as Limited Series?!?!

[playahaitian]

Fox may restart the clock on 24.

The network is looking to bring back the Emmy-winning real-time thriller as a limited series event, Deadline reports.

No deals are in place in front of or behind the screen, but Kiefer Sutherland is said to be in early talks to reprise his role as Jack Bauer. Former 24 boss Howard Gordon, meanwhile, would likely oversee the revival, per Deadline.

News of a possible 24 rebirth comes just hours after Fox pulled the plug on Sutherland’s Touch.

The movie has been dead for over a year. They never could decide on the size of the budget (Fox wanted it to be a lot cheaper than the producers) and even if they did it couldn't be done in the window of time that Kiefer was free.

[O.J PIMPSON]

Jack Bauer and his side Satchel O' Goodies was un-fucking_stoppable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Amajorfucup]

Glad that movie didnt go forward. It would have ruined the very thing that made this show great. Real time storyline fully developed over a TV season.

The Scandal effect

 

[Nemesis Prime]

you could tell Kiefer was trying hard to not be Jack Bauer in that "Touch" show on Fox even though he wanted to. I say bring it back, why not?

 

[FUCKYOU]

i mean, im sayin, whats fuckin with 24 right now or ever.. I watched all the top series from breaking bad, walking dead, game of thrones, spartacus, banshee, wire, etc etc etc.. And none of these series will have u on the edge of ur seat in suspense like 24.. 24 is simply amazing.. No other shit like this has been done.. And jack bauer is one cold heartless heroic muthafucker.. And the twists in this show.. The fucking twists will have u like "awww hell naaaaaaaaawwwww"....

It started getting predictable toward the end...the wire was better in my opinion

Fox's Top Exec Confirms 24 Reboot Set for May 2014

Fox has officially restarted the clock on 24.

Fox entertainment chairman Kevin Reilly confirmed Monday during a conference call with reporters that the seminal Kiefer Sutherland thriller will be revived in May 2014 as a limited series event titled 24: Live Another Day.

“[It's] 24 compressed over 12 weeks,” explained Reilly. “It will go chronologically over the day, but it will skip hours. It will be dictated by the plot.”

The idea for the TV continuation came after the long-gestating 24 movie was deemed unworkable. “[The producers realized that] 24 compressed into two hours is not 24,” said Reilly. The limited series conceit “is the perfect form[at]” because it’s essentially the original 24 minus 12 hours of filler. “The spine of the original 24 episodes was about 12 hours,” Reilly pointed out. “Those were when the big events occurred, and then there were little events and connective tissue in between. So [we're] taking the best 12 [of the 24].”

IGN News - "24" Is Coming Back To FOX

 

[ThaBurgerPimp]

miss having House as it lead-in..always knew when it was time after seeing the
company logos

 

[gamersfuel]

dam...if there is a tv show fuckin with 24 i would like to see that shit..

 

[Simply Sickenin']

Wait. 24 is coming back .... with a 12 episode season
How does that work?

And to the OP's original question. I see this as bad thing, but I'm that way with almost everything. People always want to see their favorite ball player come back and play one more game, see their favorite boxer have one more match, or see their favorite show have one more run. I say fuck that, go out on top and leave the people wanting more. ​
