End in sight for hit show 24

Posted: Jan 17, 2009 3:06 am

With a movie set to be made after the series ends, presumably set in the same time as season 8 we know Jack wont die. So that's a bit of a bummer.

It is a bummer and not one. I had felling s8 world be the last season. This show will be the only show that I have watch so fall will have a season 8. And 24 will always be around with all kinds of fanfiction. I will miss see Kiefer on the TV but who knows maybe we will see more cartoon vones of the show on the internet.

I meant it's a bummer that we know he wont die because of the movie. Not that the show is ending.

I didn't read that Jack was in the movie or even the eight series, making your comment conjecture and nothing that you infact "know" to be true.

It'll be intresting to see what happens post series 8, that's for sure.

I don't want it to end.But if it has to then i guess i'm ok with it

They had better not kill Jack if they are going to make movies after next season. I, for one, do not want a prequel.

i'll take a prequel because i'll take anything about 24, but he shouldn't die. the world needs heroes. i know some will argue he is somewhat in the anti-hero mold, and that's the trend these days. it isn't Roy Rogers anymore. but that is, in fact, what we need: people, flaws and all, as they are, doing what needs to be done to fight evil (which exists, despite the existentialists). the interesting thing is that the show often deals with just what the price is for dealing with evil. our heroes are so often shown having to make impossible choices in the pursuit of saving as many lives as possible. Jack walks the fine line about as well as one might ask, and he's ready to sacrifice his own life in the process. "No man has greater love than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." may the true-life Jack Bauers live on to fight another day, and may the fictional ones always be around to point the way. . .

I heard in another interview it depends on on how well S7 and S8 go, and if Fox want to commision another Season and Kiefer wants to it will happen!

Though I'd like to see 24 stick around much longer, I won't be too disappointed when the series ends.

They're had a great run with 7 (so far) seasons of consistently well written, quality episodes. I haven't enjoyed a tv series so much since LaFemme Nikita on the USA Network (97-01).

Yea...I was expecting this to happen. I really do not want Jack to die in the final season though, because he's been saving lives, killing bad kids, risking his life and a lot of close people jack knows died, WTF give the dude a break!

The only thing that annoys me is what i wrote above. A series finale is supposed to be huge. Making a movie after the show almost ruins it.

Posted: Mar 01, 2009 6:46 pm

Yea it kind of does ruin it.

Posted: Mar 27, 2009 10:51 pm

meh

corporate america ... get used to it. it even has its hands in 24, unfortunately.

life without 24? noooooo!
where did i leave that rifle?

Posted: Mar 28, 2009 9:56 am

yeah, we'd have to do some serious protesting!

Posted: Mar 28, 2009 6:53 pm

How does it ruin it? For arguments sake lets say you know Jack isn't going to die at the end of season 8, he could still die at the end of the movie. And he hasn't died at the end of the last 7 seasons and they were all still huge finales lol

And you don't actually know he wont die at the end of season 8, because you don't know whether the movie will be a prequel or not.

It always sucks when a show I love ends, but them actually knowing this is the end will make the final season alot better than if they weren't sure whether they'd get picked up for season 9. So many shows set up a fantastic next season, and then they don't get picked up and you are just pissed. Getting some closure will be fantastic

man without 24 there's nothing to look forward to in the New Year each Xmas, a film would be great, 2 hours of pure, uninterrupted, action would be great, but I'm not sure if a prequel would be a good idea....but hey least they could bring back Nina/Palmer...but it would never be the same

Posted: May 10, 2009 6:18 pm

I would like to see jack die this season. An let day 8 be a prequel based on operation nightfall. Day 1 is my favorite day an I'd love to see nightfall come to life.

Posted: May 20, 2009 5:36 pm

I really hope that they can make it so there are seasons blending in with movies, so it becomes one big franchise, and 24 never dies!

Posted: May 20, 2009 5:42 pm

Not going to be possible if the writers do kill Jack in the movie, which sounds like a big possibility.

And executive producer Howard Gordon intends to axe it after one more series - but only to enable him to make a big-budget movie version..

To think 24 could really go on with out Jack Bauer is rediculous. It's his show, he is without question the heart and soul of the show...despite the great supporting players who have come and gone over the years, 24 is not an ensamble (ie ER) show that focuses on a group rather than one central character. Ask yourself.."Why do I watch 24?"90% will say because Jack is awesome! It will be a sad day when keifer or the producers as a whole decide its over..but over it would be.

Posted: Jun 03, 2009 1:18 pm

Oh yea, and whoever said season 8 is just conjecture..you did hear that Kiefer signed on for day 8 right?? Thank goodness for small miracles! Lol
