Yes, it’s true and I really couldn’t be more excited. 24 is coming back for another season. Â I don’t want 24 to ever end. Â Of course it will. Â But, not until I get at least one more season! Â Rumors are flying that they might kill Jack Bauer. Â I think that is a total crock. Â Well, it better be. Â There is no 24 without him. Â Hello!
Monday’s episode is a super 2 hour packed heart attack. Â Can you handle it?
White House Drama: As I reported back in November, the White House is going to be attacked. As with any big 24 event, there will be plenty of deaths and a big hostage standoff. “These guys are in scuba gear, breaking through subterranean rock. Obviously it’s more like a James Bond film than a documentary on how one would try to breach the White House,” says Gordon.
Jack and Renee Sitting in a Tree: Even though Dubaku (Hakeem Kae-Kazim) is in the hospital, there’s another Dubaku his son gunning for Renee (Annie Wersching). Renee’s life is definitely in danger, but fret not! Gordon assures us that Agent Walker sticks around until next season, saying, “This season they establish the emotional framework for a relationship. We’re going to see that manifested in the eighth season. It’s definitely part of our plan, but it’s not a romance in the traditional sense of the word. It’s a lot more broken and jagged than what you might imagine.”
Chloe’s Baby Bump Ahoy: They have finally found their way to get Chloe offscreen so Mary-Lynn Rajskub could go have her baby. Gordon says, “She’s going to be in some big trouble she’ll have to repair her legacy.” But Chloe eventually returns, and the FBI desperately needs her later this season. “You’ll see there is a distinction with what CTU was once able to do and what FBI is able to do, and that gets brought into relief when Chloe reenters the story at a later point,” adds Gordon.
Big Bad Jonas: Finally, we really get to meet Jonas Hodge (Jon Voight) in Monday night’s big event. We knew he had close ties to the government after seeing him on the presidential steps before the inauguration, but Gordon says, “You will get a full-bodied explanation of Jon Voight’s motivations. He is in the tradition of all our best villains: very complicated, megalomaniacal and, in his view, well intentioned. You’ll know in all its operatic glory why he’s done what he’s done.”
Yay! Â I can’t wait for Monday! Â It’s the best night for TV! Â Check back Monday for a recap!!
