Jack is back from the dead and 24 has never been better.

Jack is back. The new season of Fox’s 24 kicked off this past Sunday with a 2 hour premiere and continued on Monday with another 2 hours. It appears that I am not the only one fired up about this season. The ratings have been good and Bob and Tom and Tony Kornheiser has been raving about the new season on the radio.

I have been a fan of 24 since the beginning and except for Jack Bauer’s daughter Kim fighting a panther in Season 2, most of the seasons have been good. This season has started of with a bang, literally. If you have DVRed and not watched it yet stop reading……..NOW.





Former President Palmer has been assassinated and Michelle Dessler has been killed and Tony Almaida is on death’s door. All three very good friends of Jack Bauer. Jack seems to be the one set up for it all and he is back from the dead to find out what is going on and avenge his friends' death.

Jack, if you do not remember, faked his death to get out of a life sentence in a Chinese prison for a mission that got out of hand at the Chinese embassy in LA. He was contacted by his friend Chloe and the she is the only one left alive or conscious who knows his death was faked. Jack tracked down the Palmer assassin and shot him in the face.

That was all in the first two hours. I didn’t even tell you about the new president’s wife being crazy and how the Russian president might be in danger. I have not watched the second part from Monday but I can’t wait to check it out.

If you have been a fan and dropped off, start back up again. I am not sure you can catch the first four episodes again, but check your local listings on Fox and FX. Jack is back and 24 is only getting better.
