Jack Bauer and 24 delayed indefinitely
Jack Bauer is amazing, but apparently not even the baddest counter terrorism agent on the planet is powerful enough to battle a group of striking writers.
FOX announced Wednesday that the highly popular series “24″ will be delayed indefinitely. And since the summer months usually give lower ratings, it could be as late as Fall of 2008 or even early 2009 until we get to see “Day 7.”
Executive producer Howard Gordon said this:
“Hopefully it will have the same effect it had on ‘The Sopranos’ and it will whet fans’ appetites even more,” Gordon said. “I really appreciate the integrity [Fox and 20th Century Fox Television] have toward the show. The only other alternative was a shortened order. Airing 23 episodes of a show called ‘24′ would have felt like less than the optimal way to present the show.”
The idea of airing in two parts wasn’t appealing to them either, because of the hit in ratings Lost took for pulling the same, erroneous stunt.
