Day 3: 3 years after the 2nd season, Jack Bauer is still working at CTU along with his daughter, Kim, and her boyfriend, Chase. Things begin to heat up as a drug cartel threatens to release a virus if their leader is not released. President Palmer is running for re-election and has to deal with a smear campaign launched by his opponent, and a traitor is operating in CTU.
Jack Bauer, Director of Field Ops for the Counter-Terrorist Unit of Los Angeles, races against the clock to subvert terrorist plots and save his nation from ultimate disaster.
24 is one of those programmes. It's the kind of show that turns up every few years only to have everyone hooked and screaming its praises from every rooftop. Trouble is, these shows are almost always glorified to the extent that they can never truly live up to the hype surrounding them. Currently in production for its fourth season, the concept of the show is an interesting one. Based around the exploits of a counter terrorist unit based out of Los Angeles, each series takes place over the course of one day, with each episode representing one hour within said day. Events are followed in real time, inter cutting between a variety of story lines and characters. At the heart of the show is Jack Bauer (played to maximum effect by Kiefer Sutherland, an actor who I have previously underestimated). Jack is a curious combination of factors. Uncompromising and willing to go to just about any means to fulfil his mission, he is also desperate to find some small shred of peace within his life and his devotion to both his family and his duty are frequently played off one another. Surrounding Jack are a variety of other characters many of whom I simply don't have space to mention. Among the more regular players are Senator/President David Palmer (played by Dennis Haysbert), the first African American to run for President and actually stand a chance and Tony Almeida (a wonderfully soft spoken Carlos Bernard), a fellow CTU agent of Jack who has a tendency to butt heads with the show's lead. Finally there's Jack's daughter Kim played by the (quite frankly gorgeous) Elisha Cuthbert, but more on her later. Characterisation is by and large quite strong, and the constantly shifting nature of the cast means even bit players may get their chance to return and give their characters time to shine. The dialogue can sometimes run a little dry, and considering the borderline absurdity of some of its situations, the show manages to take itself almost a touch too seriously. There's almost no humour here.
So far, each season of 24 has moved at a breakneck pace, ripping wildly through one implausible yarn after another. It's covered assassinations, nuclear weapons and biological warfare agents, combined with a healthy dose of good old-fashioned backstabbing and double-dealing on the side. The plot lines rarely slow to take a breath, which is fortunate, as if they did, some of the series frequently sloppy writing would be far more glaringly obvious.
Here in lies 24's greatest problem, and that is the sheer duality of its nature. The twenty-four hour gimmick used quite well in the first season but of less importance as the show has grown and developed in the following years, is both its strongest asset its greatest weakness. Ignoring the sheer implausibility of so much taking place in just one day, the real time format effectively imposes one storyline on the series that has to last. Attempts are made to keep things fresh by constantly shifting story's focus (most obviously in season 3). These attempts can sometimes be successful (the introduction of the Drazen's in season 1 came at just the right time to allow the story to expand and develop some depth) and can also fail (the latter third of season 2 that trailed off dramatically as the change involved robbed the story of a great deal of momentum and danger that the series had spent a long time developing). By season 3, the problems are becoming increasingly acute. More and more plot strands are being left undeveloped or simply tossed at the wayside and the whole season effectively gives the game away. Until now the writers have managed to support the idea that the each season's story has been pre planned to some degree, a paper thin illusion that to my mind has been completely torn apart in the third season, finally proving that like so many other shows, the story has been made up as they went along.
One of the show's other greatest flaws is the sheer overabundance of filler material, once again stemming from the real time format. With close to a day's worth of film to fill, the writers had two options open to them. The first and more difficult option would have been to completely plan a meticulous and complex story that could adequately fill the required amount of time without becoming incomprehensible or tedious. The second is to throw in a bunch of extraneous story lines that frequently serve only to distract from the matter at hand. Guess which option the writers chose. The most obvious use of subplots and even characters being used solely to bulk out the running time is evidenced (at least in the first two seasons) by Jack's family, more specifically, Kim. First of all, let me say that I have absolutely no problem with Kim in the acting department. Elisha Cuthbert deserves credit for investing the character with some weight and drama, but her task isn't made any easier by some, quite honestly, god-awful writing. Kim stumbles from one bad situation to the next so often that you begin to wonder if the girl really is the anti Christ that the shows fans have dubbed her. Her 'drastic' circumstances will have you clapping a hand to your forehead in dismay at just how contrived they are. This problem is at its worst in season 2 where Kim's story serves only to detract from everything surrounding it. It has virtually no bearing on the main story and becomes increasingly implausible and downright embarrassing in its closing stages.
Ultimately, 24 is an ambitious show that truly succeeds when all its disparate successes come together to form a cohesive whole. For the most part however, it is fractured and stilted. While it remains fun and compulsive thanks to the constant twists and turns (no matter how contrived they may be) it rarely truly shines.
Summary
Again a series based on the same old premises. Bad guys have all the cards. Good guys are to inept to do anything about it. A single hero saves the day by slowly taking the cards away until the plan of the bad guys fall apart. The law enforcement agencies are only useful in cleaning up the mess. They might as well be replaced by cleaners.
Some years ago colleagues of mine where quite enthusiastic about 24 when it game out. They clung to this series, trying to figure out who was doing what to whom and why. I never felt enticed to watch the series. The more the praise and humbug around it, the more it would be likely it would fall through on close scrutiny.
Some time ago I was in the position to watch two episodes of the series. A band of armed men from one of the former Soviet Republics had occupied an airport and taken hostages. They threatened to kill the hostages if the Russian and US president, who where just in a meeting, signed an anti-terrorist pact. Among the hostages were the Jack Bauers son and his mother(who was not Jacks wife: probably divorced). Jack Bauer was hiding around in the airport passing information to the outside.
While this was happening, inside the us government there was a person who was callous enough to feed the leader of the terrorist with information. His motive being something like that either he didn't like the president or didn't like the proposed pact although in it wasn't clear to me.
In the meanwhile the president tried to make up his mind to give in or to sign the pact in discussions with his wife and one or two others. It is strange that the president was only surrounded by his wife and two or so advisor's and one of these was(as far as i can remember) the inside bad guy and the other the head of the CIA(or something).
It all got a little more complex as what looked to be a big shot of the CIA took on the task of situation control and called the head of terrorist with the ominous words: I am the head of the anti-terrorist team. So much for using professional hostage negotiators.
It got even more complex when Jack Bauer was captured by the terrorists. The anti-terrorist team didn't know of course so the terrorist leader then ordered Jack to pretend that he was still free and lure the swat-team into a trap. But Jack, being the smart guy he is, used some CIA phrases to warn the anti-terrorist guys, who at first didn't get the hint. But then some guy(deus ex machina) comes in from nowhere who hears what Jack has said and reasons: look he was with the CIA some months ago, so he is using old code words and actually he has been captured.
So the swat team, being tipped of that Jack has been captured then makes a different entry and the entire hostage situation is solved.
Are you still there? I am asking for you might have been lost by now.
What is wrong with all of the above? It isn't the complex plot. No, the problem is that it is a typical standard bad plot. Each and every time it is the same, the bad guys have all the resources even when confronted by the might of the us state. The only one that stands between them and their goal is the single hero and some inept swat team who need to be taken by the hand by the hero.
The swat team is of worst of all. It is displayed as a bunch of morons. They seem to be dependent on Jack Bauer's information about the terrorist, while the entire group of terrorists and hostages are in plain open view for all to see through the glass wands of the airport. Nobody seems to have put up camera's, snipers or observation teams. Or at least they don't tell us, because they are there as we witness later-on.
When the mother of Jacks son is released the swat team is so dumb to let her hang around the tactical command center with displays showing her what is going on, with the predictable result that she gets hysterical when she sees her son about to be killed by the terrorists. By the way, nobody of swat did put in any effort to interrogate the woman about the hostage situation? Huh? And then when the swat team finally makes it's entry they forget to use stuff like flashbangs and teargas so they have shoot it out. That is a really bad score: dead men don't talk and firefights just turn up dead bystanders. The swat people know the phone-number of the bad guy. Why wasn't it tapped(so call could be traced to the inside agent in the government?) or isolated to prevent others contacting him? And then they commit the final sin by not arresting everyone in sight. No they let people happily walk off without them being cleared, with the result that one sleeper(an terrorist pretending to be a hostage) walks away. But even more. Personally I would suggest to have the swat team replaced by the female cast of Baywatch: they are as inept but at least nice to look at.
Again we witness a series that can make stories by making a joke of everything except the hero. This makes it a mediocre series at best.
As a last minute change up in order to get an genuine look of shock from Sarah Clarke, Kiefer said this: "Sarah, I love you. Why did you marry Xander (Berkeley)." The movie, titled 24: Redemption, is set 44 months after the events of Day 6 and 65 days before Day 7, on Inauguration Day in the United States, beginning at 3:00pm GMT (10:00am EST) and ending two hours later at 5:00pm GMT (12:00pm EST).
There was also a feature film of 24 in the works, but that was eventually scrapped in May 2013 after the announcement of Season 9. The idea would have been to make a two-hour representation of a 24-hour day, with only one hour in real time. Yes, yes it does. Known cities in the 24verse to have a CTU include San Francisco, Seattle, New York (Day 8 takes place there), Washington D.C., Miami, New Orleans, Denver, Salt Lake City, Phoenix, San Diego, Boston, Las Vegas, Detroit, St. Louis, and Austin. It was also mentioned that Bill Buchanan and Michelle Dessler worked together at CTU Seattle. No one really knows. But, it appears to be the regional oversight section(think Internal Affairs) of CTU that carries a large amount of jurisdiction and seems to mainly focus on crime scene investigation type work. Division is run by the Regional Director.
The term "division" can be taken as a double entendre; on the surface, it is the administrative headquarters of CTU (and maybe some other agencies as well). But it is also possible to understand it as the source of excess bureaucracy that creates a rift, or "division," between the people who make decisions from a comfortable office and those who get their hands dirty in the field. It's not directly based on any one agency.
But it does share similarities with the Joint Terrorism Task Force, which initially was a partnership between the FBI New York Field Office and the NYPD, which has since grown to over 100 task forces with at least one in every FBI field office.
Ultimately it does share similarities to the newly created National Counterterrorism Center in Washington DC, which as of now is the only office for the NCTC. It's been said NCTC was inspired by CTU. Well there are different answers for this but showrunner and Executive Producer Howard Gordon in an interview with E!Online said Season 7 should take place in 2017 once you take all the Presidential Elections between the seasons into account. You could roll everything back four years and everything would work out the same.
March 2004: Day 1 (Primary Day of the 2004 election, Super Tuesday)
18 Months
September/October 2005: Day 2
3 Years
September/October 2008: Day 3 (the tail end of Palmer's administration)
15 Months (should be 18 months, was referenced twice is season four, at the beginning of the season Ronnie, CTU agent was opposed to Jack going "into the field", says Jack hadn't been in the field in over a year and a half, then at the end of the season Secret service agent Pierce shows video of Mandy's attempted assassination 4 and a half years ago, which was in day 2)
March/April 2010: Day 4 (the second year of Keeler's administration)
18 Months
September/October 2011: Day 5 (Third year of the Keeler/Logan administration, right before the reelection cycle starts in Jan)
20 Months
May/June 2013: Day 6
3 1/2 Years
January 20th 2017 (Inauguration Day): Redemption
65 Days
March 26th 2017: Day 7
18 Months
September 2018: Day 8
4 Years
September 2022: Live Another Day (Day 9) 24: Debriefing marks Jack's birthday as February 18th, 1966.
So, if you take the above timeline as accurate Jack was 38 in Day One
39 in Day Two.
42 in Day Three.
44 in Day Four.
45 in Day Five.
47 in Day Six.
50 in Redemption (TV film - Day 7 Prequel).
51 in Day Seven.
52 in Day Eight.
56 in Live Another Day (Day Nine).
This also implies that Jack met Teri at age 22 and had Kim at 23.
24 Debrief is a series of five mini-episodes covering events taking place after season six.
Set 15 hours after the end of Day Six, these 'webisodes' were originally made available to American Express cardholders, via www.fox.com/24/amex, and were updated every Monday.
With the release of the season six DVD boxset, these were included on the bonus disc. Day Zero is an flash-animated webisode series of 24, sponsored by DegreeMen deodorant.
This covers events taking place prior to the first season of 24. There are two non-canon answers to this question, as featured in the deleted scenes on the season four DVD:
a) After he was traded for Jack, Marwan instructed two of his men to kill him. Curtis arrived, killed the terrorists and rescued him.
b) Marwan locked him in a shipping crate, and he was found at the end of the day.
No canonical answer has been given, however... According to 24.wikia.com/wiki/On-screen_kills_by_Jack_Bauer, the total count (as of the end of Day 9: Live Another Day), including 24 (2008): Redemption), is 309. Harry Barnes: Republican (unconfirmed; pre-season 1; most likely incumbent President that Palmer faced in election)
David Palmer: Democrat (confirmed by Sherry during season 1)
John Keeler: Republican (He was the opposition during season 3)
Charles Logan: Republican, as he was vice president under John Keeler (unconfirmed)
Hal Gardner: Republican (unconfirmed)
Wayne Palmer: Democrat (unconfirmed)
Noah Daniels: Democrat (unconfirmed)
Allison Taylor: Most likely Republican or possibly Libertarian (unconfirmed)
Mitchell Hayworth: Most likely Republican or possibly Libertarian (unconfirmed)
James Heller: Republican (unconfirmed) The nuclear explosion in season six claims the lives of about 12,000 people, and this constitutes the bulk of the show's total death toll. See 24.wikia.com/wiki/Deaths_on_24 for an attempt at a comprehensive count. At the beginning of season 5 President David Palmer was assassinated along with Michelle Dessler because they were the only ones who knew of Jack Bauer's pseudocide (faked death). Tony Almeida was also supposed to die but was injured and put into a coma. During season 5, Tony comes out of his coma only to find that Michelle had been killed. Tony later discovered that Christopher Henderson, a conspirator in the day's events, was in the CTU hospital being tortured. Tony knocks out the CTU torturer and goes at Henderson with a leathal dose of interrogation medication, however, Henderson gets a hold of it and stabs Tony with it, supposedly killing him.
In season 7, Tony Almeida is revealed to be alive and involved with a terrorist group that are trying to disrupt President Taylor's invasion of Sangala by blackmailing her with terrorist attacks.FBI and Jack Bauer apprehend Tony and Jack interrogates him. Tony reveals to Jack that he was working with Chloe O'Brain and Bill Buchanan to expose the corrupt dealings of US officials involved with General Juma (the African dictator responsible for Sangala's mass genocide. Jack breaks Tony out of FBI custody and proceeds to work with Chloe and Bill to takedown General Juma and expose the corrupt officials within the US government. During his attack on the White House, General Juma and his men are killed by Jack Bauer. Jack and Tony later rush to secure a bioweapon obtained by Jonas Hodges, the president of Starkwood PMC (Private Military Corp.) Jack and Tony succeed in destroying the bioweapon however Jack is infected. Tony later betrays Jack and kills FBI agent Larry Moss and steals the last canister of the bioweapon. Tony later meets up with Cara Bowden, one of Jonas Hodges' representatives. Tony and Cara plan to use the weapon on a subway and use a fall-guy to plant the weapon. FBI work with Jack to once again, capture Tony and stop the attack. Jack is forced to betray FBI and break Tony out again in exchange for Kim's safety. FBI locate and rescue Kim but Tony and Cara escape with Jack as their hostage and he eventually plans to use Jack's infected blood to re-create the bioweapon. Cara arranges a meeting with Alan Wilson, Jonas Hodges' partner and plans to have Tony officially brought into the group. Tony reveals to Jack that he plans to kill Alan Wilson and Cara using Jack as a suicide bomber to do it. Tony meets Alan Wilson just as Jack frees himself and FBI arrive to takedown everyone. Jack's bomb is taken off and he helps FBI kill Alan Wilson's guards. Tony kills Cara and proceeds to go after Wilson, cornering him and revealing that he was responsible for Michelle's death and their unborn son's, by ordering the attack on their lives. Jack shoots and wounds Tony, and Alan Wilson and Tony are both taken into FBI custody. Wilson is later vigorously questioned by Renée Walker for information, almost dying in the interrogation. It is unknown what more information he revealed, but it may have been enough to disband his entire network, as this group no longer plays a part in the final season. Day 5's conspiracy revolved mainly President Charles Logan and his Chief of Staff Walt Cummings, who were involved with defense contractor Christopher Henderson and his associate James Nathanson, all of whom were part of a large conspiracy headed by a group of mysterious men controlling President Logan.
It turns out that Nathanson, Henderson, and Logan were trying to smuggle a bioweapon onto Russian soil and detonate it on a terrorist base in order to form an excuse for the US government to invoke the military clauses of Logan's anti-terrorism treaty, allowing the US government to secure oil interests in Central Asia.
Christopher Henderson is captured by CTU but escapes; Nathanson and Walt Cummings are both killed, and Charles Logan is exposed at the end of season 5 as the top conspirator and is arrested for treason.
In season 6, Jack Bauer's estranged father, Phillip and his brother Graem are revealed to be part of the Abu Fayed terrorist plot as well as the Charles Logan conspiracy. Graem Bauer is also the man who was controlling Charles Logan in season 5. Phillip Bauer ends up killing his son Graem because he was a liability. Later in the season it is revealed that Phillip was also involved with the Chinese government and Cheng, the man responsible for Jack's torture and imprisonment in China. CTU eventually learns that Phillip is planning on selling a piece of Russian war technology to the Cheng in order to start a war between China, Russia, and USA. CTU tracks Phillip and Cheng to an oil rig that they bomb in order to prevent the device from being found. The bombing seals Phillip Bauer's fate.
In season 7, it is revealed that Alan Wilson, the leader of a mysterious group known only as "Red Dots" is the one who was really behind David Palmer's assassination, Michelle Dessler's death, and Charles Logan's treason. Wilson is apprehended by FBI at the end of season 7.
Because we know that Charles Logan was being controlled by Graem Bauer and his group, we can only assume that Alan Wilson's group (Red Dots) are the same group that Graem Bauer was involved with because in season 7 it is revealed that Wilson was behind Charles Logan, so this is the only possible explaination as to how Alan Wilson could be behind Logan's conspiracy. This is explained in the season 5 prequel, a bonus feature on the season 4 boxset. It is set over a year after Day 4. Jack has remained in hiding in Chicago, living a vagrant life, when he gets a visit from Chloe. She warns him that someone was able to hack into her computer and find out that she falsified Jack's autopsy report, thereby concluding that Jack is not dead. This assumption is confirmed by a sudden attack on Jack by a black vehicle, but Jack is able to lure the attacker and crash the car. Jack then leaves Chicago for his new cover, presumably the Mojave desert where he resides at the start of Day 5. Presumably because the conspirators could not find Jack anymore, they framed him for killing President Palmer, so he would be forced to come out of hiding. Logan's fate is set up during season 6 to look as though he died from the stab wound that he received to the shoulder by Martha, but in Season 7, it is mentioned that up until recently he was still under house arrest and therefore, survived his injuries. By the time Season 8 arrives, Logan is alive and well. He is free from house arrest as well, since Noah Daniels gave his a full presidential pardon for his crimes during the time that Daniels was finishing up Wayne Palmer's term as President. It was never officially explained on the show, but the simplest explanation is that the dose of toxin given to him by Mandy was not high enough to kill him. It probably was some kind of liquid nerve agent that is absorbed through the skin. This kind of absorption will go a lot slower than, e.g., inhaling, swallowing, or injecting. The rate of absorption is also depending of the condition of the skin, e.g., wet or dry, healthy or damaged. The skin on the hand usually contains a thicker layer of callus, which may also slow the toxin uptake. Combined with the fact that president Palmer is a tall man (who needs more toxin to achieve the same effect as compared to a short man) and health professionals may have been quick in countering the toxin's effect (limiting the exposure), the total amount of toxin that his body absorbed may have been below the lethal threshold. The first episodes of season 3 indicated that the attempt damaged his hand and put him in a life-threatening situation with a long recovery, but he survived nonetheless. Seven episodes of Season 8 were released as Extended Versions on DVD and Blu-ray. All feature prolonged plot elements that were cut out for the TV-Versions. In general these episodes are now one to two and a half minutes longer. The series has a total of 47 main cast members spread across 9 seasons (and 1 film).

Tate Donovan - Mark Boudreau This has never been established for definite, but spin-offs have strongly implied that the President during the first season was Harry Barnes, a Republican whom David Palmer subsequently defeated in the election. Supposedly the first season was written under the silent assumption that Bill Clinton was the incumbent President, presumably meaning the creators intended for Day 1 to be in mid-2000 , though this has since been invalidated and Day 1 established to have taken place in 2004. Many people have appeared on the news. That doesn't mean that they will become famous. In later seasons, some villains had very detailed information about Jack, while others didn't even know who he was. Day 1 was part of the Californian Presidential Primary, so presidential candidate David Palmer went to LA a few day earlier. During season 2, President Palmer was in Oregon. During season 3, the University of Southern California had been selected as the venue for the first of three televised presidential debates, so President Palmer went there to participate in the debates.
In season 4, President Keeler was on the Air Force One. When the plane was shot down by terrorists, it happened to be flying over the Los Angeles area, so that CTU could send a helicopter to investigate the wreckage.
In season 5, President Logan was in LA to sign a treaty with the President of Russia.
In seasons 6 and 7 the presidents were in the White House, Washington D.C.. In season 8 the president was in the United Nations building in New York. In season 9 the president was in London. 24 was conceived and developed before the 9/11 attacks. It was a coincidence that 9/11 happened in the same year in which 24 started airing. Season one was scheduled to begin airing on October 30, 2001, but after the terrorist attacks of September 11, the date was moved back a week to November 6th. The events of season one didn't have anything to do with the 9/11 attacks.
Starting with season two, however, the show went in a different direction and focused on large-scale terrorist attacks that resemble the 9/11 attacks.
There wasn't any major terrorist attacks in the U.S. during the show's eight-season run. So the show wasn't afraid to create dramatic situations such as a nuclear bomb exploding in downtown Los Angeles. It would be very hard to portray on television. In reality, if a nuclear bomb really went off in a major US city, it would likely be impossible for the story to focus on the main hero (Jack). Too many problems would need to be addressed. But season 6 was meant to focus on Jack's relationship with his father, so they had to just abandon that plot and moved on to a different plot arc. a5c7b9f00b
