Damn it, Chloe! Fox has decided to not move ahead on a planned prequel following a young Jack Bauer and spinoff legal thriller.

Some things have their time and then we must learn to let them go. Something which Fox seems to have a hard time doing when it comes to the beloved character of Jack Bauer from the series 24.

I’ll be honest, and this confession might make me very unpopular with our readers and fellow writers, but I’ve never watched an episode of the series 24. I typically don’t watch a lot of TV and so am very selective with what I do watch and this was one of those I unfortunately missed out on. Everyone I know who has …

Jack Bauer is no more. Well, at least he’s no longer in action as 2014’s 24: Live Another Day saw Kiefer Sutherland’s legendary CTU agent turning himself over to get locked away in some icy Russian gulag. And with Bauer no longer leading the fan-favourite 24 franchise, it’s time for some new blood. We’ve already heard that Straight Outta Compton‘s Corey Hawkins would be taking over …

What a difference a successful event series makes. Last year’s 24: Live Another Day event series not only came as a surprise when first announced, but also did surprisingly well by raking in the ratings; so well that Fox are looking to produce another 24-based event series and, should that prove successful, a new spin-off series. Speaking to TVLine, 24 …

Damn it, Chloe!  Most heroes, after saving the town/country/world, get to ride off into the sunset for one last time, and Kiefer Sutherland’s iconic CTU agent Jack Bauer got that exact same fate. But that was at the end of 24’s sixth season, and the multiple-Emmy Award winning drama then stuck around for another two seasons on TV after that. Four years …
