Last night I watched the finale of season 6 of 24. It was kind of ho hum in my opinion and it certainly did not stand up to previous years. I am happy to read that they creators are making an extra effort to step it up for season 7.

So where does it rank with other seasons? Here is my ranking of all 6 seasons of 24.

6. Season Six - Day 6 begins and ends at 6:00 AM. Jack is released after twenty months of torture in a Chinese prison. Terrorists attempt to set off five suitcase nuclear devices in the United States, although only succeed with the first (to some extent); however, after a deal made to rescue Audrey Raines puts a Russian-made component from one of the devices into the hands of the Chinese, Jack must recover it in order to prevent war between the U.S. and Russia.

5. Season Three - Day 3 begins and ends at 1:00 PM. While struggling with heroin addiction, Jack must re-infiltrate a Mexican drug cartel in order to keep it from acquiring a deadly virus. Jack must then stop the mastermind behind the virus from releasing it.

4. Season Four - Day 4 begins and ends at 7:00 AM. Jack must save the lives of Secretary Heller and his daughter Audrey Raines (with whom Jack is romantically involved) when they are kidnapped by terrorists. The same terrorists then launch further attacks against America, and Jack is forced to use unorthodox methods to stop them, methods that will have long-term consequences for both Jack and the U.S.

3. Season Two - Day 2 begins and ends at 8:00 AM. Jack must stop a nuclear bomb from detonating in Los Angeles, then assist President David Palmer in proving who is responsible for the threat.

2. Season One - Day 1 begins and ends at 12:00 AM, and occurs on the day of the California presidential primary. Jack Bauer must protect Senator David Palmer from an assassination plot, and rescue his family from those responsible for the plot, who seek retribution for Jack’s involvement with a covert U.S. mission in the Balkans.

1. Season Five - Day 5 begins and ends at 7:00 AM. Jack is believed to be dead by everyone except a few of his closest friends. Terrorists with connections to the U.S. government attempt to steal nerve gas in order to start a war with Russia, and Jack must resurface to stop them.

Other 24 news

Season 7/Day 7 will begin airing in the United States in January of 2008. No further plot details is known at this time except that the season will ’see a dramatic change’.

24: The Movie

Kiefer Sutherland has confirmed that 24: The Movie is in the pipeline (becoming official on June 8), and the show’s creators have already started working on the script. It should be noted that the film would be a two-hour representation of a 24-hour day, not an actual 24-hour-long film as this would be financially straining on production and impossible to show in cinemas.

Favourite character

250px-nina.jpgNina Myers is a fictional character on the television series, 24, played by Sarah Clarke. Nina was second-in-command of the Los Angeles Counter Terrorist Unit (CTU) during the first season of the show, behind Jack Bauer, who was her former lover. She was also involved with Tony Almeida.

Nina was so bad ass and easily one of the best villains in the run of the show. She kept coming back and she was one of the few that always had the upper hand on Jack.
