Another guarantee:
Named characters will appear in multiple episodes, establish emotional bonds with major characters, and then unceremoniously disappear from the show, never to be mentioned again. For example, CTU employee Milo (longest bathroom break ever) and the dimwitted Behrooz (riding around in a van).

Rick, have you rented/bought the last season of “24″ on DVD, and seen the prologue to this new season? I haven’t been able to find the darn thing at Blockbuster yet… trying Netflix but doubt there’s much hope of seeing it before the season bagins.

I have to blame you again, BTW, and your doggone “24″ weekly summaries last season, for being a huge reason why I’m a blogger now. Ya know, though, you’ll always be better and badder than silly ol’ Jack to me!

Sorry to hear the hubby will miss all the fun but please thank him for his service to our country. And tell him to bookmark RWNH to keep up with what’s happening.

And I certainly hope that your speculation about Palmer is a rumor. I speculated last year that with Jack probably in Europe (or maybe the mid east?), Palmer would be perfectly positioned to act as go between with CTU - and a guy that could open a lot of doors for Jack he might otherwise find closed.

Hubby flies to Afghanistan the day the new season starts — he is majorly pissed. But I will tape tape tape them all for him. Go Jack Go. Heard that Palmer bites the big one in this season

Is it JAN 15 yet? Also you forgot the Chinese I am sure they will find out Jack is still alive so we will have a double plot going on at the same time.

You missed some other things to expect next season:

1. There will be a mole in CTU reporting to the bad guys
2. Lots of infighting between CTU employees
3. CTU employees breaking the rules under their boss’s nose.
4. Jack will do something crazy. Crazy, maaan.
5. Cute assassin chicks will occasional blow people away when you don’t expect it.

Those of you who have watched 24 should appreciate this observation.

Actually, since Pajamas Media is going to put a Fox “24″ ad on my site, they told me under penalty of death that I have to promote the show.

And I might add that “with an attitude like yours,” you could sh*t in your bed and no one would care.

You have single-handedly brought my entire attention to a single television show!!!!! I never imagined a write-up such as yours could get me excited about something so mundane as TV. Hollywood and the rest of the entertainment industry should fear your entrance into the genre. With an attitude like yours, you should command at least an 8 figure salary selling television.

Hector:

Spot on.

Kevin:

I think America has several Jacks doing what needs to be done to keep us safe.
