I don't think a thread has been started about this - I really got in to 24 (as did a lot of people!) it took the genre and re-redefined a lot of the cliches and cliff hanger type events!

Hopefully it will be back to it's best - I think it's an all new cast i.e. none of the original cast at all.

Haven't really seen much about it, but saw an advert for it whilst on the Tube this week.

A load of blurb here on the wikipedia (not sure if there are any spoilers - don't think so.. but you've been warned, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24:_Legacy

According to http://www.geektown.co.uk/tvairdates/24-legacy/ it should air on 15th Feb at 9pm in the UK

or do we think its had it's day?

My money is on this being toilet as it's 24 in name only.

How can it be 24 with no Bauer?
Although Keifer Sutherland is one of the Producers, possibly only for 1 episode...

I thought 24 went into the toilet fairly quickly back in the day. One of it's issues was the series was written as it went along.
IKWYM series 1 and 2 were excellent and then it went a bit bananas crazy with stuff that could never ever happen. I know it's a piece of fiction but the thing that makes this sort of viewing good is if it blurs the lines a little not go batsh!t crazy!! I think I binged it, so could forgive it.

I think the lack of discussion says as much about the programme as discussion can.

Have watched episodes 1 and 2 now, I am not sure if I am going to bother getting to the end of it yet. I probably will though, as I feel a sense of loyalty to 24 as a series.
I know what you mean, although Episode 2 only aired last night on NowTV and so there wasn't anything to discuss...

It seems fairly standard 24 fare - sometimes you think would they really be able to get away with that and that..? Obviously some twists to come - trying to spot them already.

It is well produced and a great action show. Just viewing it for what it is.

I'm thinking he'll "blow" his way out with the explosives he had or possibly the CTU Director will help him... or not..!

ikwym about the CTU operatives - maybe that's why there was a bit of a rumour about Chloe making a reappearance..
