Celebrating its 150th episode this season, 24 is one of the most innovative, addictive and acclaimed dramas on television. In its first six seasons, the suspenseful series was nominated for a total of 57 Emmy awards, winning for Outstanding Drama Series (2006) and Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for star Kiefer Sutherland (2006). Season Six garnered a sixth consecutive Emmy nomination for Sutherland and second consecutive nomination for supporting actor Jean Smart.

"Day 7" of 24 promises to combine the show's unique and trend-setting format with compelling new elements. Each episode again will cover one hour of real time, as viewers follow JACK BAUER (Kiefer Sutherland) through another astonishing day.

The series gets a jumpstart on the clock this fall with 24: REDEMPTION, the unprecedented two-hour real-time "Day 7" prequel, airing Sunday, Nov. 23. Set and shot on location in Africa, Bauer and mentor CARL BENTON (Robert Carlyle) battle an international crisis, while here at home the nation prepares for a new president on inauguration day. Taking place just a few months before the new day dawns, U.S. State Department officer FRANK TRAMELL (Gil Bellows) and JONAS HODGES (Jon Voight) are pulling the strings that will set the stage and raise the stakes for Season Seven. Set in Washington, DC, "Day 7" opens four years after Season Six with CTU dismantled and Bauer on trial. Bauer's day takes an unexpected turn when former colleague TONY ALMEIDA (Carlos Bernard) returns. Meanwhile, newly elected President ALLISON TAYLOR (Cherry Jones) leads the country alongside White House Chief of Staff ETHAN KANIN (Bob Gunton) and First Gentleman HENRY TAYLOR (Colm Feore).

A national security crisis prompts an investigation by a team of FBI agents including JANIS GOLD (Janeane Garofalo), RENEE WALKER (Annie Wersching), LARRY MOSS (Jeffrey Nordling) and SEAN HILLINGER (Rhys Coiro). Although CTU is no longer, CHLOE O'BRIAN (Mary Lynn Rajskub) and BILL BUCHANAN (James Morrison) are back for another momentous day of shocking events.less «

  What would be the perfect series finale for you? How would you like 24 to end? I have an idea but I'm sure that you won't like it; I believe that the "best" ending, the most proper one would be if Jack commits suicide because no one else can kill Jack Bauer and besides that, it would be the most dramatic finale... Don't get me wrong, I'm one of the biggest 24 fans and Jack deserves the best but lets face it; 24 is an action-drama show... actually it's the best one and a happy ending isn't the right ending for it... What do you think? less «

  24 is in the 304 place!!! 303 better shows? No way... I've never found a show before the 267 place (House)...!!! In the highest rated shows of all time page, House is in the 1st place and 24 is in the 14th place; 267+14=281 (not 304!!!)... and what about the first 266 shows??? I'm totally confused by this paradox, can someone explain it? Please!!! :( less «

  What a great show, my favorite show!!! I'm one of the biggest fans of 24, I have the dearest memories from it. hide « show »

  What a great show, my favorite show!!! It's full of twists and turns!!! Honestly I'm one of the biggest fans of 24. I spend so many great hours watching it and I have the dearest memories from it...
  
  Unfortunately, for me, the seventh season wasn't the best one but it was a lot better than the previous (and worst) season... 24 is still the biggest action-drama but in the last 9 episodes of this season, they gave us a lot more of drama than action and I prefer the balance between those two very important elements... For the element of drama, it was great to see a dying Jack... but for the element of action, it was not. Well... never mind, kiefer Sutherland deserves (at least) a nomination... again. Once again he was Jack Bauer, once again he potrayed him in a unique and perfect way!!!
  
  From the best season to the worst: 5 (10/10), 1 (9.5/10), 4 (9.5/10), 2 (9/10), 7 (8.5/10), 3 (8/10), 6 (7/10). 24 is my favorite show even if it's not always as brilliant as Lost... Lost hasn't got the great JACK BAUER, 24 has... ;) I hope next season to be even better and why not... the best.
  
  PS: I would love to see a final ninth season... :)

  Undoubtedly The Best Show On TV hide « show »

  the best show ever to grace television screens, adbsolutely amazing, adrenalin rush tv with twists, turn, brilliant characters and Jack Bauer. I have been addicted since season 1 and think the best seasons in order from best to worse are 2, 5, 1, 7, 3, 4, 6. Even though, six is said to be the worse, it is still good in its own right but with the twists including the famous Season 1 Episode 23 ending which I was left gaping at the screen in amazement after. Just cannot fault it unlike other tv shows cough supernatural cough and cough csi cough

  A show that has repetitive storylines that makes it all addictive....I stopped watching it. hide « show »

  The show has a habit of putting the same or similar stories into the episodes. Always about the US government, some terrorist decide to declare war on US soil, nuclear bombs, classified information is leaked, conspiracy, family issues and most importantly Jack saves the day no matter what the problem is. I can understand why there are people who still watches it, its addictive. You want to be surprised, and keep asking yourself "What happens next?". To tell you the truth I was like that at the beginning of season 7. But then as it progressed to episode 18, it got to me, this show is never going to change. I mean the similarities between each storyline is too obvious. The storyline is always going to be about the US government, a female president against all odds, Jack saving everyone. It has lost its touch.

  8 Great

  More realism needed! hide « show »

  Show is great but needs to be real. It is hard to believe all the men in the show can go 24 hours without developing a 5 o'clock shadow. Each episode Jack looks like he just got out of the shower sans the blood and scars. And no one looks haggard after pulling an all-nighter. Since I'm on the subject of clean beans, the White House looked spectactular a few hours after the deadly invasion. We all should have such house-keeping available.
  
  I was disappointed in the end as it left way too many unanswered questions. But then again, I guess it leaves the door open for an 8th season. Hopefully, Keifer will be able to keep out of of jail to complete it.

  9.5 Superb

  Definately a milestone in tv history. hide « show »

  24 is definately one of the best shows in tv history. It brought a new concept called "real time tv show" to television. At the end of every episode something shocking happened and you can not wait to see another episode. So if you start watching one time you cant stop watching it.
  There is always an action, always a twist that shocks you.
  The acting is good aspecially Kiefer Sutherland, Carlos Bernard and this season Annie Wersching . I will be happy to see them all in next season. But for the next season I hope that they will have more original story than muslims.
